Treaty Three Applauds Declaration


Grand Council Treaty Three is applauding the United Nations for approving its Declaration of rights for Indigenous People.

Grand Chief Diane Kelly says the expectations of Treaty Three residents have been raised by Canada's endorsement of the declaration last week.

Kelly is hoping it marks a new era in the relations between Treaty Three and government and will lead to a new, better and strengthened economy in northwestern Ontario.
