T'it'q'et First Nation (Lillooet Band)

Ts'kw'aylaxw First Nation (Pavilion Band) also sp. Ts'kw'aylacw in proper St'at'imcets

The formal beginnings of the modern Lillooet Tribal Council are to be found in the Declaration Of The Lillooet Tribe of 1911, which asserted the sovereignty of the St'atimcets-speaking communities and disputed recent pre-emptions of land at Seton Portage by white settlers.

Other St'at'imcets -speaking groups within the traditional territory of the St'at'imc people are incorporated separately as

N'quatqua First Nation

In-SHUCK-Nation

--- Samahquam First Nation

--- Skat'in First Nation

--- Port Douglas First Nation (Xa'xtsa).

These were all formerly part of the Lillooet Tribal Council but being all smaller rural reserves opted out to make their own way through the land claims process, despite maintaining close family and cultural ties to the larger communities at Mount Currie and Lillooet .
