An introduction to Kindersley: its history, the Nations whose lands it sits on, and Indigenous community life today, with sources.
Long before survey lines crossed west-central Saskatchewan, this was open plains country used by Indigenous peoples. Plains Cree, the y-dialect of the Cree language, is spoken across the southern plains and the central parkland. It describes its region as Treaty 4 and 6 territories and the traditional homeland of the Métis. Treaty 6 was signed at Fort Carlton on August 23, 1876 and at Fort Pitt on September 9, 1876 by Cree, Assiniboine and Ojibwe leaders, and it covers the central portions of what are now Saskatchewan and Alberta. It is the only numbered treaty that includes a medicine chest clause and a promise of help in times of famine and pestilence. Bands continued to sign adhesions at Fort Edmonton and Blackfoot Crossing in 1877, at Carlton and Battleford in 1878, at Fort Walsh in 1879 and 1882, at Montreal Lake in 1889, and on into the twentieth century as late as 1956.
Kindersley is on Treaty 6 territory, the lands of the Cree and other nations, and the homeland of the Métis.

In Kindersley, the local college campus is one public place where reconciliation work is visible. Great Plains College, with a Kindersley campus among its six locations, signed the Colleges and Institutes Canada Indigenous Education Protocol on September 25, 2025. It was the 76th institution in Canada to do so. The protocol asks colleges to prioritize Indigenous education, support Indigenous students and staff, and bring Indigenous knowledge into curriculum. The signing ceremony included a drum performance and remarks from Elders and Knowledge Keepers. At the same time, the college launched its Indigenous Engagement Action Plan. Its president described the protocol as the promise and the plan as the how. The college's Indigenous Engagement Committee works with Elders Dale Mosquito and Sylvia Thorburn. Knowledge Keeper Lyndon Linklater has offered one-on-one support to students and staff and led sharing circles. For Louis Riel Day, the college has welcomed a Métis presenter from the Lil Buffloo Métis Association. The college also belongs to two regional Truth and Reconciliation committees.

XUSI began with a gap: gym clothes that carried Indigenous identity instead of leaving it at the door. That is still the centre of the line, and it ships from Saskatoon to Kindersley.
The tees, hoodies and hats are designed by two Indigenous brothers on Treaty 6. Start with Indigenous gym wear, or see what every word means on the Meanings page.
