The Keeseekoose First Nation (Ojibwe: Giizhigoons Anishinaabeg) is a Saulteaux band government located in Kamsack, Saskatchewan.
[1] The band is named for Chief Kiishikouse (kîšîkôns, Giizhigoons, "little sky"), who signed an adhesion to Treaty 4 at Swan Lake, Manitoba in 1875.
One notable hockey player between 1950 and 1960 was Leonard Ketchemonia, who has earned many accolades throughout his career [citation needed].
Chief Keeseekoose saw that his subjects were going hungry in the early 1870s and put their welfare first and signed treaty four on September 15, 1874[citation needed].
Under the leadership of Chief Kisickonse and after Treaty Four was signed, many of the tribe relocated to the present location where the land is more suitable for farming and ranching.
