Who they are
The Stoney, also known as the Nakoda, are an Indigenous First Nations people living on the slopes and in the valleys of the Rocky Mountains in western Canada. Deeply rooted in a way of life in harmony with nature, they preserve their cultural traditions and strong family ties. Their linguistic heritage within the Siouan language family reflects a rich history of communal spirituality and faith passed down through generations.
