Halfway River First Nation is a Dunneza First Nations government with a 3988 ha reserve located 75 km northwest of Fort St. John, British Columbia. It is a Treaty 8 nation.
The Halfway River people were at one point part of the "Hudson Hope Indian Band" but in 1971 they split off, and the remaining people formed West Moberly First Nations.[2] As of January 2024, there were 317 registered members, with 137 living on the reserve.
The current chief is Darlene Hunter[1][2] (replacing Russell Lily in December 2013)
