context_page_description: Cross Lake is the name of two closely related, adjoining but independent communities in the Canadian province of Manitoba. One of the Cross Lakes is the Cross Lake Indian Reserve of the Cross Lake First Nation where the main urban area is called Cross Lake. The other Cross Lake is on nearby provincial Crown land. The communities are located about 520 kilometres by air north of Winnipeg, and 120 kilometres by air south of Thompson. They are situated on the shores of the Nelson River where the river enters Cross Lake. An all-weather road, PR 374, connects the communities to PR 373 via the Kichi Sipi Bridge.
  In March 2016, Cross Lake appeared in the national news after First Nation officials declared a state of emergency because of an epidemic of
  suicides. The Canadian Press reported that there had been "six suicides in the last two months and 140 attempts in the last two weeks alone",
  and band councillor Donnie McKay said the community "is traumatized and needs immediate help from the provincial and federal governments".
