'''Meziadin Junction''' ({{IPAc-en|m|ᵻ|ˈ|z|iː|ə|d|ᵻ|n}}) is a work camp in northwest British Columbia, Canada, near the border with Alaska, United States. It is about {{Convert|14|km|mi|0|abbr=}} north of the Nass River crossing and {{Convert|156|km|mi|0|abbr=}} north of Kitwanga on Highway 37. The highway splits in its journey north from Terrace to Dease Lake, with one branch (Highway 37A) heading west over Bear Pass to Stewart and terminating at Hyder, Alaska. Meziadin Lake and its provincial park are nearby. The name "Meziadin" derives from the now-extinct Tsetsaut First Nations language.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Akrigg |first=G.P.V. |title=British Columbia Place Names |last2=Akrigg |first2=Helen |date=1997 |publisher=UBC Press |isbn=9780774806374 |edition=3rd |location=Vancouver |pages=173}}</ref>
