As an organization we’re committed to developing strong working relationships with Indigenous people based on mutual respect and open communication. That’s why we’re so pleased to be working with the Red Sky Métis Independent Nation (RSMIN) to learn together and share information about Canada’s plan for the safe, long-term management of used nuclear fuel.
“Our members possess a strong sense of shared identity despite the fact they reside in many communities throughout the Robinson-Superior Treaty area,” said organizer Sandra Heyder-Miecznikowski. “We very much appreciate the NWMO’s efforts to work with us as our members learn about this important national project.”
Greg Plain, NMWO Senior Indigenous Engagement Advisor says these kinds of information sessions are important to support the learning process in the region. “We thank the Red Sky Métis organization and their leadership for giving us the opportunity to learn together. This work is another opportunity to learn from indigenous knowledge holders. These kinds of engagement activities also help build on the intent of our recent Reconciliation Statement.
The NWMO’s Reconciliation Statement is the next step in developing a reconciliation policy to measure our organizations’ progress and commitment to Indigenous peoples and their history and future.
