History


Laird sits on the Stoney Knoll First Nation, a former Indian reserve that was cleared by the government and terminated in 1897. Local community members have been instrumental in supporting a specific land claim filed by Stoney Knoll descendants.[6] Laird incorporated as a village on May 4, 1911.[7]
