The First People in what is now known as North America were paleolithic hunters, commonly referred to as Paleo-Indians that crossed the land bridge from Siberia around 30,000 years ago. By comparison, the Blackfeet coalesced as a group/culture/tribe around 1,000 years ago. With several other immigration waves between the First and the Blackfeet tribe, they can hardly be called "First People".
And since they were not the first, I find the name "First Peoples Mountain" highly offensive when referring to any of the American Indian tribes that commonly claim to be "natives". Lies bother me when it comes to historical fact.
