Communities – Muskrat Dam

Muskrat Dam Lake First Nation (Severn Ojibwa: ᐗᒐᐡᑾᓂᒥᐠ ᓴᑲᐦᐃᑲᐣ) is located 370 kilometres north of Sioux Lookout, and home to just over 400 residents. Nestled along a narrow stretch of land above the Severn River, the community is deeply connected to its land and traditions.

The community spans 4,850 acres along Muskrat Dam Lake in the Kenora District. Daily life blends tradition and modern services. Residents continue to hunt, trap, and fish year-round, while also maintaining key infrastructure including a water treatment plant, diesel-generated power, and a local airport.
