The First Nation's territory comprises Richibucto Reserve #15, lying {{Convert|8|km|mi}} southwest of Rexton, New Brunswick on the Richibucto River off of Route 116.[1] It also comprises Soegao Reserve #35, lying {{Convert|5|km|mi}} west of Moncton, New Brunswick.[1] {{As of|2016|April}}, the registered Elsipogtog population is 3,313, with 2,587 living on reservations and 726 living off reservations.[2] History{{See also|History of New Brunswick|List of historic places in Kent County, New Brunswick}}"Elsipogtog" or "L'sipuktuk" means "River of Fire". The area was also called the stronghold of Sikniktuk. The traditional district was assigned to the Mi'kmaq clan of Alguimou, or L'kimu. Misel Alguimou was baptised Michael Augustine in the 18th century. Chief Michael Augustine signed the Peace and Friendship Treaty with the British in 1761, on behalf of the Richibucto Tribe of Mi'kmaq. The Richibucto Reserve was established in 1802 and later reduced in size. Richibucto Reserve # 16 is also known as the Big Cove Reserve. It was also called Big Cove, Mesigig Oalnei, and currently known as Elsipogtog (Pacifique spelling), or L'sipuktuk (Francis-Smith variation) and Elsipogtog First Nation located in Weldford Parish, New Brunswick Suicide rateIn 1992, there were seven suicides involving youth and over 75 suicide attempts in the community. An inquest was held and one of the recommendations was the creation of a position at the school to help support the youth in the community.[4][3] The Elsipogtog Crisis Centre was also established in 1992 to help combat the large number of suicides in the community.[4] Youth justice systemIn 1995, the community held a Justice Awareness Day that led to the creation of a justice alternative for youth. This was due to the high youth suicide rate in Elsipogtog and the large percentage of their youth in the court system. The Elsipogtog Restorative Justice Program includes pre- and post-charge diversion system, mediation, group conferencing programs, and sentencing circles. The program allows the community to "decide what [is] best for itself in terms of resolving wrongdoing...by striving to resolve the effects of an offender's behaviour.[5] Present dayThe community has one school, Elsipogtog School, which has students from kindergarten to grade 8. Elsipogtog has a gas station, and a Royal Canadian Mounted Police detachment which is open throughout the week.[6] There is a 7 day/week supermarket and a Pharmasave brand Pharmacy which are both 100% band owned and operated There is also a holistic approach Health and Wellness Centre which has clinical and physician services available, as well as home and community care services, mental health and addiction services. There are community justice services available. Protest Against Shale-Gas ProjectIn May 2013, members of Elsipogtog First Nation demonstrated their concern over the proposed shale-gas project and 2D seismic imaging done near their reserve by SWN Resources Canada, a subsidiary of Southwestern Energy Company. Workers were on site to conduct seismic exploration that uses sound wave technology to create images of underground shale beds that might contain natural gas. Many residents voiced their concerns about the planned hydraulic fracturing (fracking) through social media. Throughout the Spring, Summer and Fall of 2013, protesters blocked SWN Resources Canada workers from accessing their seismic equipment.They blocked Route 116, 134, Hwy 11.{{Citation needed|date=May 2016}} On July 24, 2013, a video was recorded of a First Nations protester strapping herself to bundles of Geophones and other equipment used by SWN Resources Canada for seismic testing on the site.[7] She slowed down the workers access to the equipment until the RCMP removed her later that day.[8] On Sept 29th, SWN's trucks were blocked by a mystery van and protesters gathered in support. {{Citation needed|date=May 2016}} Shortly afterward, a sacred fire was lit and maintained by a 12-year-old boy who watched over the prayers of the people.{{Citation needed|date=May 2016}} On October 1, 2013, a video was recorded of Elsipogtog First Nation Chief Arren James Sock delivering an eviction notice to SWN Resources Canada while dozens of protesters continued to block Route 134 in Rexton to prevent SWN Resources Canada from moving their exploration equipment.[9] On October 7, 2013, a video was recorded of Elsipogtog First Nation Chief Arren James Sock and New Brunswick Premier David Alward addressing the media regarding the blockage of the shale gas research and the injunction regarding the blockade.[10] On Thursday October 17, 2013, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police moved in to enforce a court injunction against a road blockade by shale-gas and fracking protesters. The situation "exploded in violence, sending dozens of people to jail and reducing five police cars to smouldering ruins".[11] The RCMP said "more than 40 protesters were arrested for various offences including firearms offences, uttering threats, intimidation, mischief and for refusing to abide by a court injunction".[12] T.J. Burke, the lawyer for the Elsipogtog First Nation, confirmed Chief Arren Sock was among those arrested in the clash. "Chief Arren Sock and a few of his band council members were released a few hours after their arrests".[12] On Oct 18th, SWN applied for an indefinite injunction against a list of people including John and Jane Doe. Judge Rideout denied this injunction. {{Citation needed|date=May 2016}} On 29 November 2013, another shale-gas protest resulted in the arrest of five men.[13] Another report on the same day stated that 15 protesters were jailed for throwing rocks at vehicles.[14] Numerous arrests continued to occur in 2014.{{Citation needed|date=May 2016}} CompositionElsipogtog First Nation is composed of two parts as shown:
