LDCC Corporate Profile

The London District Chiefs Council (LDCC) is an association of First Nation governments in southwestern Ontario. It was formed in the early 1970s as an informal group of Chiefs from the surrounding First Nation communities. Initial meetings addressed common issues and concerns that would have an impact on their eight communities.

The corporate support body for service delivery for LDCC is the Southern First Nations Secretariat (SFNS). Among the specific roles of SFNS, it has been mandated to assist in joint initiatives with LDCC member communities, and various levels of government and the corporate sector that include program delivery systems to achieve economies of scale and efficiency among all stakeholders.

While member communities strive for self-sufficiency and self-government, they also provide their membership with the opportunities necessary to make them important contributors to the community and regional labour market.

All LDCC communities are ideally located close to major communications centres in southwestern Ontario (London, Sarnia, Windsor, Wallaceburg, Chatham), near main transportation corridors and secondary highways. The region is also well served by rail and bus.

Air travel is conveniently located at International airports in Hamilton and Toronto Ontario, within a 1.5 hour drive from LDCC offices. Detroit and Port Huron Michigan, USA, are also nearby. The communities are situated near the Canada-USA border and enjoy extensive cross-border relations.

LDCC is composed of eight First Nations located throughout southwestern Ontario with a total membership of approximately 15,000. An estimated 5,000 members of other First Nation communities also live in urban centres nearby.
