Hill Plain is 100% owned by Alexis Nakota Sioux Nation (ANSN) in Alberta, Canada.
The Alexis Nakota Sioux Nation No. 437 is an Indigenous community located in northwestern Alberta, Canada. We are proud speakers of Isga Owawabi, our Stoney language, and reside in the northernmost Nakota First Nation reserve, home to over 1,200 members.
​
Our love runs deep for cultural traditions like drumming and dancing. We also take care of nature by doing things like eco-tourism and protecting land.
Hill Plain is a special place where we gather for important events. It reminds us of our past and gives hope for a good future where young people can do well and continue traditions.
