A memorandum of understanding has been signed that will further improve relations between the Anishinaabe Nation of Treaty Three and the Province of Manitoba.
The signing was done during Grand Council of Treaty Three's fall assembly in Grassy Narrows.
The agreement outlines areas of discussion on such things as health services, natural resource management and land-use planning with an emphasis on joint stewardship of sacred sites.
Chief Diane Kelly called the signing historic and builds on their efforts to create more pragmatic agendas in partnership with other governments.
The grand council includes 28 First Nations, two of which are located in Manitoba
