Enjoy the Fresh Air & Views

We call ourselves Eeyou. Our land - Eeyou Istchee - which means the People’s Land. Eeyou Istchee is home to over 18,000 people. With its language, traditions, and customs still vibrant and alive, you will live a wonderful cultural immersion. Cree language, iiyiyuu ayimuun, is very much alive and spoken by our people. Most of our community members are bilingual - Cree and English - and French is also spoken by some. There are currently nine (9) Cree communities incorporated into our Treaty - the James Bay and Northern Quebec Agreement. In each of these communities, we have a police detachment where you can be proud to serve.
