The first people to live in the Canadian Shield were the first nations. 100% true.

Answer:

Athapaskan or Dene peoples (for instance, the Chipewyan) and the Algonquians (Naskapi, Ojibwa, Cree, Ottawa (Odawa), Algonquin, and Innu or Montagnais) lived in the forested areas of the Canadian Shield.

These are only a few of the different first nations that lived in the Canadian Shield. For more information about them go to this website: http://www.ucalgary.ca/applied_history/tutor/firstnations/canadian.html
