On Aug. 1, the Treaty Commissioner of Saskatchewan, Dr. Kathy Walker, and members of the OTC team attended Treaty Day on Muskoday First Nation.

Chief Ron Bear and Muskoday First Nation also hosted the Manitoba Treaty Relations Commissioner Loretta Ross and education coordinator Amanda Simard, presenting them with gifts.

“Our office collaborates with the Manitoba Treaty Relations Commission on a number of initiatives because Treaties 1 to 11 are interprovincial,” said Commissioner Walker.

This was Commissioner Ross’ first visit to Saskatchewan to meet with Commissioner Walker, so there was an opportunity to discuss various initiatives, including Treaty education teacher training in Manitoba.

After the Pipe Ceremony, and speeches, there was a feast led by Elder George Saddleback.
