Your Voice Matters
Métis Nation–Saskatchewan
Seeks Your Voice for
Constitutional Reform
Be the Voice of the People! Join us for a meal and share your ideas as we review proposed amendments to the Constitution of the Métis Nation – Saskatchewan and related legislation.
It’s an exciting time for Métis in Saskatchewan as our government comes into its own, realizing Louis Riel’s dream of self-determination. With Constitutional reform at the heart of this process, our next round of consultations begins in March 2024, aiming to gather your valuable input. Join us and share your ideas as we collectively review proposed constitutional amendments and legislation, shaping the path to self-governance.
Under the leadership of Vice President Michelle LeClair, together with Associate Minister Lisa McCallum, the Voice of the People Constitutional Reform process is hosting consultations in all 12 regions, including two online sessions—with one specifically devoted to youth.
Your input matters – let’s build our future together!
