History
Missinipe was previously incorporated as a northern hamlet. It disorganized from northern hamlet status to become a northern settlement under the jurisdiction of the Northern Saskatchewan Administration District on October 1, 2009. Tourism Saskatchewan confirms that the community's etymological origins come from the Churchill River but states that the word is instead Mahttawi-sipiy, meaning "difficult river".
Geography
Missinipe is north of La Ronge and north of the nearest city, Prince Albert. Along Highway 102, the northern settlement is between Sucker River Indian Reserve 156C and Brabant Lake. The community of Grandmother's Bay, an extension of the Lac La Ronge First Nation, lies approximately 5 miles to the northeast, directly across Otter Lake.
