Lytton First Nation
Land Code?
The Lytton First Nation (LFN) Land Code, if passed, will become the main land law of LFN and will replace the current land management provisions of the Indian Act by returning control over our reserve lands to our community.
The land code provides increased protection for reserve land and resources.
Are there other Land Code Communities?
