We join the Matawa Chiefs in calling for urgent cellular infrastructure upgrades. Rogers 3G service is scheduled to be shut down on December 31. This will leave our members without reliable connectivity. Connection and good communication systems save lives.

We stand with @GrandCouncilT3 in defense of sacred Treaty relationships.
Grand Council Treaty #3 is once again rejecting the very notion of the Metis Nation of Ontario’s fraudulent claims to being a signatory of Treaty #3 in any way, shape, or form. The Anishinaabe Nation in Treaty #3 maintains that its previously stated position on this matter has

It was an honour to be at #TIFF50 to see our friend @TanyaTalaga’s latest film ‘Ni-Naadamaadiz Red Power Rising’. It is a powerful story of the Ojibway Warrior Society occupation of Anicinabe Park in 1974. Sadly, very little has changed. And it may happen again.

So incredibly proud of Fort Severn First Nation. They have worked tirelessly these last few days to locate Steffen, with little to no support from any level of government. They have taken on this responsibility at their own cost. #Norway

To clarify, the @rcmpgrcpolice have done very little to locate the missing person. Fort Severn First Nation is doing everything they can to find him. At their own expense. And they are in co-mgt. Where is #Canada #Ontario #Manitoba to help search.
