Our community, Kelly Lake, is an Indigenous community with a rich and vibrant history. Our land is our sustenance, our livelihood, and the core of our communal and cultural life. Our way of life relies on hunting, trapping, fishing, and gathering. This way of life has continued, uninterrupted, to this day. We have never surrendered our Aboriginal rights and title.

Nikihk Means Home
มุมมอง 42 หลายเดือนก่อน
Nikihk is more than a word that just means "home".... it's a feeling, it's community, it's family. In our mother tongue, Cree, words have a more poignant meaning. We feel that by calling our society "Nikihk" we are describing our goals for building more than houses... we want to forge our home.

Bravo!
Fantastic job. Looks like progress is being made. Just out of curiosity, have you guys created any sort of membership rules? I’ve seen other groups who have hired genealogists. The genealogist would assist members to prove lineage. Also, it was mentioned that some individuals are band members and double voting. It should be taken into consideration that some people could be registered with the Federal Government, but not an actual Nation Member. The band could be a section 10 band that has their own membership rules.
Thank you for your feedback on our work to date. The Governance Committee has just begun its work in support of the community. We have not yet considered the topic of ‘membership’. This will come later in the process and involve extensive input from community members - please keep connecting and sharing with us. Thanks for following us on TH-cam and Facebook and please keep the feedback coming. ~ The Governance Committee
Marcus, could you please provide some clarity on what a youth is and what an elder is? Would an adult be considered a youth until they became an elder? Or are adults excluded from this committee? Also, does an individual have to reside in the Kelly Lake community to be a committee member?
Thank you for your questions. A youth is anyone under the age of 30. An Elder is a person over the age of 65. A nominee does not have to be resident in Kelly Lake. I hope this answers your questions.
Is this a MNBC Funded endeavour?
No, it's not
