Abegweit and Lennox Island First Nations Chiefs congratulate Manitoba’s Premier-elect

Abegweit First Nation Chief Junior Gould and Lennox Island First Nation Chief Darlene Bernard are offering their congratulations to Manitoba Premier-elect Wab Kinew.  This week, Kinew was the first First Nations Premier elected in Canada’s history.  Chief Gould says that over the past number of years, First Nations in Canada have worked extremely hard to create a new relationship with the settler communities and demonstrate the valuable contributions made to Canadian society, and the election result helps to validate that work.
