The Wolf Lake First Nation (Algonquin) and the Gespeg First Nation (Mi'kmaq) are two communities without any assigned reserve but recognized as Status Indian under the Indian Act.

The First Nations and the Inuit in northern Quebec are covered by different laws based on the James Bay And Northern Quebec Agreement and the Northeastern Quebec Agreement, which superseded the Indian Act in the 1970s. No Indian reserve exists in northern Quebec, but Aboriginal peoples still live in specific villages with recognized rights:

  • Akulivik (Inuit)
  • Aupaluk (Inuit)
  • Chisasibi (Cree)
  • Eastmain (Cree)
  • Inukjuak (Inuit)
  • Ivujivik (Inuit)
