The We Wai Kai Nation, also known as the Cape Mudge Band, has a rich history and strong connection to the land. The name We Wai Kai originates from Chief Way Key, who led his tribe to safety during a great flood. Today, the We Wai Kai Nation has a population of approximately 1200 citizens, with half living on reserve lands split between Cape Mudge Village and Quinsam Reserve, and the other half living off-reserve. The Nation has five designated reserve lands, including Village Bay, Open Bay, Drew Harbour, and Cape Mudge, each with unique features and offerings.
At Cape Mudge, the largest of the reserves, you can find the We Wai Kai Nation Administration office, Cape Mudge Boatworks, a wharf, cemetery, church, park, community garden, swimming pool, pre-school, daycare facilities, Tsa-Kwa-Luten Lodge, Nuyumbalees Cultural Centre, and ancient petroglyphs. This rich cultural heritage is woven into the fabric of the Nation, guiding them towards a proud, healthy, safe, and self-sufficient community.
