Shuswap Nation Tribal Council
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Shuswap Nation Tribal Council is a First Nations government in the Canadian province of British Columbia. Based in the Thompson and Shuswap Districts of the Central Interior, although including one band on the upper Columbia River in the East Kootenay region, it is one of two tribal councils of the Secwepemc people, the other being the Northern Shuswap Tribal Council of the Cariboo region farther south.
