Chief’s Corner with Chief Scott Martin – November 2023

November has been a big month for the Listuguj Mi’gmaq Government. A few weeks ago, we unveiled our exciting new initiative, the Listuguj Wellness Renewal Initiative. This initiative was created to help promote the overall well-being and health of community members, by providing resources and education in a clinical and cultural way. I look forward to seeing what innovative ideas the initiative has in store for the future.

This month was also Remembrance Day. We took time to remember and honor our veterans. Thank you to the men and women who fought and sacrificed so much for our freedom.

We also had an Indigenous Governance Symposium this month where knowledge was shared on the importance of self-governance. Thank you to all the guest speakers and to everyone who made this event possible.
