Non-Lillooet Tribal Council St'at'imc Groups
Other St'at'imcets-speaking groups within the traditional territory of the St'at'imc people are incorporated separately as
- N'quatqua First Nation, at the farther end of Anderson Lake from Seton Portage,
- In-SHUCK-ch Nation, on the lower Lillooet River south from Pemberton-Mount Currie.
- Samahquam First Nation
- Skatin First Nation (Skookumchuck Hot Springs)
- Douglas First Nation (Port Douglas/Xa'xtsa).
The member bands of In-SHUCK-ch, plus the N'quatqua Band, comprise the Lower Stl'atl'imx Tribal Council. These were all formerly part of the Lillooet Tribal Council but being all smaller rural reserves opted out to make their own way through the land claims process, despite maintaining close family and cultural ties to the larger communities at Mount Currie and Lillooet.

Famous quotes containing the words tribal, council and/or groups:
“I should consent to breed under pressure, if I were convinced in any way of the reasonableness of reproducing the species. But my nerves and the nerves of any woman I could live with three months, would produce only a victim ... lacking in impulse, a mere bundle of discriminations. If I were wealthy I might subsidize a stud of young peasants, or a tribal group in Tahiti.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
“I haven’t seen so much tippy-toeing around since the last time I went to the ballet. When members of the arts community were asked this week about one of their biggest benefactors, Philip Morris, and its requests that they lobby the New York City Council on the company’s behalf, the pas de deux of self- justification was so painstakingly choreographed that it constituted a performance all by itself.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
“Some of the greatest and most lasting effects of genuine oratory have gone forth from secluded lecture desks into the hearts of quiet groups of students.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
