MESSAGE FROM THE CHIEF
Kwe’
It’s been a very long but busy winter at Qalipu First Nation. We have seen some substantial advances and as spring brings forward growth and new life, we look forward to new opportunities at Qalipu First Nation.
Recently, we’ve taken a positive step forward in building our relationship within the broader Mi’kmaq community in Atlantic Canada. On April 11, we were accepted into the Atlantic Policy Congress. This regional policy, research and advocacy organization plays an important role in economic development activities across the region in support of all Mi’kmaq, Maliseet, Passmaquoddy and Innu communities across Atlantic Canada. We are pleased to be a part of this organization and look forward to working in unity and collaboration with our First Nation neighbours.
