WHEREAS it is also critically important that we all talk together about what our goals and pathways are for the longer-term future, as individual First Nations and as Mushkegowuk peoples together as a Nation, five years and ten years and twenty years from now, and longer;

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Chiefs and Delegates of the 33rd Annual Mamowihitowin direct the Executive Office of Mushkegowuk Council to organize a two or three day Chiefs' Conference to discuss longer-term goals and pathways of the Omushkego First Nations and communities together.
