Alliances of band governments of Canadian First Nations
A tribal council is an association of First Nations bands in Canada, generally along regional, ethnic or linguistic lines.[1]
An Indian band, usually consisting of one main community, is the fundamental unit of government for First Nations in Canada. Bands may unite to form a tribal council, but they need not do so. Bands that do not belong to a tribal council are said to be independent. Bands may and do withdraw from tribal councils. Furthermore, the authority that bands delegate to their tribal council varies, with some tribal councils serving as a strong, central organization while others are granted limited power by their members.
Nunavut and Newfoundland and Labrador do not have any tribal councils.[2]
