Kwikwetlem First Nation

Kwikwetlem First Nation, also known as Coquitlam Indian Band, is the band government of the Kwikwetlem, a Sto:lo people living in the Coquitlam area of British Columbia, Canada. They traditionally speak the Downriver dialect of hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓, one of the Salishan family of languages. The name Kwikwetlem (Halkomelem: kʷikʷəƛ̓əm) refers to "red fish up the river".

The Nation is made up of two reserves, a small 2.6-hectare site near the mouth of the Coquitlam River where it drains into the Fraser River, and a much larger 82-hectare site approximately 2.5 km north. About 36% of all Kwikwetlem members live on Coquitlam No. 1, 43% live elsewhere in Canada, and roughly 21% reside throughout the United States.
