Listuguj Mi’gmaq Government

by | Dec 17, 2020

Listuguj is participating in the Rebuilding First Nations Governance project.

The Mi’gmaq creation story tells of the formation of Mi’gma’gi and the creation of its seven districts. Mi’gma’gi includes the Gaspé Peninsula, parts of mainland Québec and Maine, and northeastern New Brunswick. Listuguj, the seventh and largest district, is located in Gespe’gewa’gi (“The Last Land”). Listuguj is comprised of 4,058 members; 2,108 members living on reserve and 1,950 members living off reserve. They are not an individual community in isolation, but rather an integral part of Gespe’gewa’gi and Mi’gma’gi.
