If you check the Government of New Brunswick Aboriginal Affairs Secretariat web page you will see Oromocto listed as the Maliseet Nation at Oromocto. <BR/><BR/>http://www.gnb.ca/0016/communities-e.asp<BR/><BR/>10. Maliseet* Nation<BR/>at Oromocto<BR/><BR/>I grew up in the Town of Oromocto in close proximity to the Oromocto First Nation and know it to be Maliseet. I am not a big fan of Wikipedia but the entry on Oromocton appears accurate:<BR/><BR/>Oromocto (2001 pop.: 8,843) is a Canadian town in west-central New Brunswick approximately 20 km southeast of Fredericton.<BR/><BR/>The town is located on the west bank of the Saint John River at the mouth of the Oromocto River. The town's name is derived from the name of the Oromocto River; "oromocto" is thought to have originated from the Maliseet word welamooktook which means "good river".Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05838571980003579163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33052404.post-25297982982682976002007-07-31T16:18:00.000-03:002007-07-31T16:18:00.000-03:00Oromocto is a Mikmaq first nation, not a maliseet....Oromocto is a Mikmaq first nation, not a maliseet.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33052404.post-90560106533495620502007-07-31T16:10:00.000-03:002007-07-31T16:10:00.000-03:00I knew you could write about something different.I knew you could write about something different.Blogger Charles LeBlanchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13904161889628998531noreply@blogger.com
