The Innu Nation.. is the organization that formally represents the Innu of Labrador, approximately 2200 persons, most of whom live, in the two Innu communities of Sheshatshiu and Natuashish.
The Sheshatsiu Innu People live in the community of Sheshatshiu,
while the Mushuau Innu People live in the community of Natuashish. Some Innu People also live in other communities within Labrador and on the Island part of the province of Newfoundland and Labrador.
In order to protect their interests, their land and their rights from outside forces, the Innu People first organized themselves, in 1976,
under the Naskapi Montagnais Innu Association (NMIA). In 1990,
the NMIA changed its name to the Innu Nation.
Today, the Innu Nation forms the governing body
..of the Labrador Innu.
