Onegaming First Nation is with the Northwest Angle Treaty of 1873 - Treaty No.3.
The Sabaskong Bay reserve was confirmed by the government in 1920, but in the 1930's the
Departmet of Indian Affairs moved the people to a new site which was closer to the highway
systems. The Ojibways of Onegaming achieved legal band status in 1964, when the Assabaska
Band split into the Big Grassy and Ojibways of Onegaming Bands. In 1982 the band
officially changed its name from Sabaskong to Ojibways of Onegaming.
