Big Eddy Settlement

Tucked along the Saskatchewan River near The Pas in northwestern Manitoba, Big Eddy Settlement is a place whose character is shaped by the broad river corridor and boreal lowlands of Canada’s interior. Waterways have long connected communities in this part of Manitoba, where Cree culture remains an important presence through neighbouring Opaskwayak Cree Nation. The nearby town of The Pas developed as a fur-trade centre around Fort Paskoya, established in 1741. Forest, wetlands and the river define this lightly settled setting more than urban density, while local roads link it with The Pas and the wider north.
