    There are three primary groups of indigenous Canadians

    The first are the First Nations.

    These were the people who lived in Canada before the discovery by Europeans and there's over 600 groups of societies in present day Canada. They are mostly found in the area of British Columbia and Ontario and have traditionally been found South of the Arctic.

    The second group are the Inuit.

    These are the people who were found in the Arctic area and have traditionally been called Eskimos. Eskimos is a somewhat controversial term nowadays since some people even find it offensive. They are found in the areas of Greenland, Northern Canada, and Alaska, which is a part of the US.

    The third major group are the Metis.

    Their current population is just under half a million and as an indigenous group they were found as descendants of the first nations indigenous people but after they started mixing with European explorers and colonizers and managed to form a completely new society.
