The Siska Indian Band (Thompson: sísqeʔ)[1] is located in the Fraser Canyon region of the Canadian province of British Columbia.
The Siska Indian Band reserve community and offices are located adjacent to the Trans-Canada Highway (Hwy 1) between Lytton and Boston Bar.
The location of Siska is most notable for the dual railbridge crossing of the two Canadian transcontinental railways, the CPR and CNR, just above the reserve.
Siska is often spelled in historical documents and publications as "Cisco", a spelling which remains on the map for the railway points at this location and also for Cisco Bluff, which the CPR line pierces opposite Siska Flat, which is the location of the main rancherie of the First Nation.
[citation needed] The Siska Band has undertaken to develop a line of natural ethnobotany products based on traditional food and medicinal plants, as an alternative to logging and other resource extraction uses on their traditional territory.
