Consultations begins on Métis Nation of Alberta’s draft Constitution
EDMONTON, AB – The Métis Nation of Alberta (MNA) has begun the province-wide consultation process on its draft Constitution.
In June of 2019, the Métis Government Recognition and Self-Government Agreement (MGRSA) was signed with the Government of Canada.
Following the signing, the MNA embarked on a process leading to formal federal recognition of Métis Nation self-government in Alberta. That includes the creation of a Constitution.
The MNA established a Constitution Commission to prepare a draft Constitution based on feedback from Métis citizens received in 2018 leading up to the signing of the MGRSA.
