Air Service to Fort Severn First Nation
About Fort Severn First Nation
Located in Northwestern Ontario, Fort Severn First Nation is the northernmost community in Ontario, situated along the Severn River near the southern shores of Hudson Bay, approximately 850 kilometres north of Thunder Bay.
With a population of roughly 500 residents, Fort Severn is a Cree community and a member of the Keewaytinook Okimakanak Council. Established in 1689 as a trading post by the Hudson's Bay Company, it is one of the oldest European settlements in Ontario. Today, the community maintains a strong cultural identity and deep connection to the land and waterways that have supported it for generations.
Like many northern communities, year-round access depends heavily on reliable air service, with seasonal winter road access supplementing connectivity during colder months.
