The Crossing Place People

Rooted in the Fraser Canyon, the Kanaka Bar Indian Band is a community built on connection — to the land, the water, and each other.

Guided by the teachings of our Elders and the strength of our ancestors, we continue to adapt, learn, and grow while protecting what makes our home unique.

Together, we work toward a sustainable, self-sufficient future — one that honours our past and creates opportunity for generations to come.
