NAN Governance and Education Jurisdiction:
Phase 2 of NAN governance and education jurisdiction activities was completed March 2010. NAN is now making preparation for Phase 3. Phase 3 is final phase of negotiations with NAN and Canada on the final agreement which include fiscal agreements and implementation plans. Community consultation is expected to take place in all participating NAN communities. To date, Chapleau First Nation is the only community that has submitted a band council resolution as a participating community. The rest of Mushkegowuk First Nations are in various stages of agreement to the NAN governance and education process.
Nation Building :
We have had initial meetings with Grand Chief Stan Louttit, Deputy Grand Chief Leo Friday, Doug Cheechoo, Special Project Officer and Vern Cheechoo, Governance Coordinator of Mushkegowuk Council on implementing resolution 2009-08-16 specifically on new procedures and structure to create a clear distinction between Mushkegowuk Council as a corporation and as a national entity. A full report is expected to be presented at the next assembly in the fall 2010.
