Smith's Landing First Nation

'''Smith's Landing First Nation''' () is a band government headquartered at Fort Smith, Northwest Territories, Canada. Members of the band call themselves, in the Dene Suline language, the Thebati Dene Suhne.

The film ''Honor of the Crown,'' directed by Tom Radford, documents the Thebatthi (Chipeweyan) people's successful battle to get the Canadian government to honor its obligations according to an 1899 treaty. Led by François Paulette and his brother Chief Jerry Paulette, the band reclaimed nine tracts of land and $33 million in compensation, becoming Alberta's 44th First Nation.

In June 21, 2024, Smith's Landing First Nation signed a memorandum of agreement to collaborate with three other Fort Smith governments in improving the lives of constituents, as part of the Collaborative Leadership Initiative (CLI). Provided by Wikipedia
