WHEREAS the people and First Nations of Mushkegowuk Council celebrate with the Omushkego people of Missanabie Cree First Nation their progress in re-establishing their traditional homelands, of which they were wrongfully dispossessed; and

WHEREAS Missanabie Cree First Nation continues to work to realize its jurisdiction and use of its traditional homelands; and

WHEREAS the Missanabie Cree First Nation is working to resolve issues of overlapping and neighbouring First Nation jurisdictions; and

WHEREAS the Mushkegowuk Council First Nations have always sought to live in friendship and alliance with their neighbouring First Nations;

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that this 26th Mamowihitowin of the Mushkegowuk Council supports the Missanabie Cree First Nation in its

efforts to re-establish and reclaim its traditional homelands, in a spirit of First Nation friendship and alliance.
