Métis Nation elections coming up next week
Métis Nation Saskatchewan (MN-S) is encouraging a good turnout from the Battlefords area for the election coming up May 27.
“It’s how you have voice,” Loretta Metzger, the MN-S new chief electoral officer said. “If you want to have a say in the direction that the Métis Nation takes in the future, you have to get out and vote.”
For the local Battlefords area, eligible voters will participate in the elections for Western Region 1A.
Voters must be over 16 years of age to take part in the Métis election. They also need to show identification with their name and address, and complete a declaration of Métis status.
