: Absolutely. "First Nations" is the accepted term in Canada and reflects the fact that there were scores of aboriginal "nations" with distinct languages, territories and cultures.

you can also say native or indigenous peoples (people usually doensn't have an "s" on the end of it but in this context it would be an accepted exception--I have definitely heard it used in this way).
