Kwantlen First Nation

Kwantlen First Nation (Halkomelem: q̓ʷa꞉n̓ƛ̓ən̓ or Qwʼó꞉ltlʼel) is a First Nationsband government in British Columbia, Canada, located primarily on McMillan Island near Fort Langley. The Kwantlen people traditionally speak hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓, the Downriver dialect of Halkomelem, one of the Salishan family languages.
The Kwantlen are a Stó꞉lō people (an ethnicity which includes the nearby Katzie and Kwikwetlem First Nations among many others throughout British Columbia's Lower Mainland region), though as of June 2018, Kwantlen withdrew from the Stó꞉lō Tribal Council and currently operates as an independent Nation.
