Aseniwuche Winewak Nation (AWN) is a nonprofit society based in Grande Cache, Alberta. AWN represents over 500 adults and youth who share a unique history and ancestry as a distinct Indigenous group rooted in the Rocky Mountains.
The Aseniwuche Winewak, or Rocky Mountain People, are unique in that they continued to live nehiyaw pimâtisiwin ᓀᐦᐃᔭ ᐱᒫᑎᓯᐃᐧᐣ, the Cree traditional way of life, largely undisturbed up until the 1960s.
Families lived by seasonal rounds, living in cabins and teepees, hunting, fishing, trapping and harvesting medicinal plants. Their People cared for each other and for the land. The discovery of coal triggered a chain of new developments that led to the establishment of the Town of Grande Cache in 1969.
The Aseniwuche Winewak traditional way of life was challenged by new Euro-Canadian ways and the social, environmental and economical impacts continue to be felt today.
