The Aboriginal People's Party was a political party in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan that nominated 10 candidates in the 1982 elections for the Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan.^[1]

The aim of the party was to promote the interests of First Nations (i.e., "Native Indian") and Métis (mixed race) people in the province.

The party fared poorly: it collected only 1,156 votes, 0.22% of the provincial total. It won no seats in the legislature, and did not nominate candidates in any subsequent election.^[1]
