Canada. Indian Affairs Branch. Oka Agency : The first agent for the Oka Agency, N.B. Doucet, was appointed in April 1823. The Oka and Caughnawaga Agencies were closely linked. Doucet was also the agent for Caughnawaga and during the period 1883 to 1899 the Caughnawaga Agent was responsible for both agencies. In 1947 Oka was integrated with the Caughnawaga Agency. Between 1958 and 1960 Oka once again operated as an independent agency. Finally in 1968 the Oka Agency was amalgamated with the Caughnawaga Agency to form the Caughnawaga District. This district was re-named the Montreal District Office effective 1 November 1970. Regional Administrative Histories, 1958-1990, (Bands, Agencies, Districts).
