Natuashish is an Innu community in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador. The community is inhabited by the Mushuau Innu First Nation. Natuashish became a federal Indian reserve in 2003.[4][5]

Natuashish (Little Sango Pond)[6] was established in 2002 as a planned community in the hopes of resolving the social problems that had plagued the prior community of Davis Inlet, 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) away.[7] The population of Natuashish at the 2021 Census was 856, down from 938 in 2016.[8]

Initial reports suggested that the Canadian government's plan of renewal and healing had been a failure, as the community was still plagued with alcohol and drug abuse. The government was accused of creating a system overburdened with bureaucracy, and not adequately addressing the issues. The local tribal band was accused of corruption, as was proven in a 2005 CBC News report in which it was shown that the leadership was trafficking drugs and other illicit substances to maintain power.[9][10][11][12][13]

The community's attempt to resolve its problem with alcoholism led to a ban on the sale, purchase, and possession of alcohol within the reserve. The bylaw was originally passed in 2008 by a margin of two votes.[14][15] The prohibition bylaw was upheld in a subsequent referendum held in the community in March 2010.[16]

The community has continued to struggle with drug abuse and youth boredom.[17][18] As recently as 2017, gas sniffing by youths has been a notable issue.[19]

Natuashish is inaccessible by road and may be reached only by air or sea.[20] The community is served by the Natuashish Airport.[21]
