Comment:
Turtle Mountain Reservation is in North Dakota, but as far as I know It's an Ojibwa or Chippewa Reservation made up primarily of biracial Cree Metis and Ojibwa Saulteaux People. Saulteaux refers to the Ojibwa who came from Sault St. Marie. (the people from "The Sault") Fide, Dr. Morgan Baillargeon, 11/18/2008.
