Findians or Finndians (Finnish: fintiaanit; Swedish: findianer) are American or Canadian people that descend from the mix of Finnish Americans or Finnish Canadians and Indigenous peoples of North America, mainly the Ojibwe. Most Findians today live around the Great Lakes in Canada and the United States.[1][2][3]
The population number of Findians is unknown, but it could be between a few hundred and a few thousand.[4][5]
