Soda Creek/Deep Creek Band

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Soda Creek/Deep Creek Band is a First Nations government of the Secwepemc (Shuswap) Nation, located in the Cariboo region of the Central Interior region of the Canadian province of British Columbia. It was created when the government of the then-Colony of British Columbia established an Indian Reserve system in the 1860s. It is a member government of the Northern Shuswap Tribal Council.

In the Shuswap language, Soda Creek is called Xats'ull, while Deep Creek is Cmetem'. Xat'sull, (pronounced hat-shall) means "on the cliff where the bubbling water comes out".^[1]
