Kainai Nation
The Kainai Nation (or Káínawa, or Blood Tribe) is a First Nation band government in southern Alberta, Canada, with a population of 7,437 members in 2005,〔(Alberta Municipal Affairs ) - 2005 Official Population list - Indian Registered Population. December 2005. Retrieved on 24 September 2006.〕
''Akáínaa'' translates directly to "Many Chief" (from ''aká'' - "many" and ''nínaa'' - "chief") while ''Káína'' translates directly to "Many Chief people." The enemy Plains Cree called the Kainai ''Miko-Ew'' - "stained with blood", i.e. "the bloodthirsty, cruel", therefore, the common English name for the tribe is the "Blood tribe."
The Kainai speak a language of the Algonquian linguistic group; their dialect is closely related to those of the Siksika and Peigan. They are one of three nations comprising the Blackfoot Confederacy.
At the time treaties such as Treaty 7 were signed, the Kainai were situated on the Oldman, Belly, and St. Mary rivers west of Lethbridge, Alberta. The Kainai reserve Blood 148 is currently the largest in Canada with 3,852 inhabitants 〔(Statistics Canada ) - 2001 Census Aboriginal Population Profile〕 on 1,414.03 km² and is located approximately 200 kilometres south of Calgary. As of December 2013, the Kainai Nation had a total registered population of 11,791 people.〔Blood Tribe Registered Population - Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada - http://pse5-esd5.ainc-inac.gc.ca/fnp/Main/Search/FNRegPopulation.aspx?BAND_NUMBER=435&lang=eng〕
