Anishinaabe Governance is\u2026 havi<\/strong>ng our own Leadership Selection system.
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

The State of Leadership Selection\u2026 currently.
\n<\/strong>Right now, when your First Nation conducts an election, it is governed under the Indian Act.\u00a0 The Indian Act<\/em> is completely controlled by the federal government.\u00a0 For years, First Nations have been working to come out from under the Indian Act<\/em>.<\/p>\n

There are some First Nations that have opted to create their own Band Custom election codes.\u00a0 But even these election codes need to be approved by the Minister of Crown-Indigenous Relations in Ottawa.<\/p>\n

The promise, hope and future of Anishinaabe Leadership Selection
\n<\/strong>Self-governing Anishinabek First Nations are taking a courageous leap forward to establish their own system of selecting leaders.\u00a0 The governance agreement does not define what this selection or election system is, it will be up to self-governing First Nations, and you, the citizens, E\u2019Debendaagzijig, meaning Those Who Belong.<\/p>\n

The leadership selection system will depend on your vision.\u00a0 Considerations may include:<\/p>\n

\n
A European democratic style of election \u2013 one person, one vote by secret ballot<\/li>\n
For larger First Nations, an electoral representation based on geographic areas<\/li>\n
An electoral representation based on family representation<\/li>\n
Including Elders, youth and women representatives<\/li>\n
Including off-reserve representatives<\/li>\n
Taking a gradual approach and maintaining similarity to current elections<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The future of Anishinaabe Governance is\u2026 (or could be)\u2026 the full implementation of the Anishinaabe Dodemaag (the Clan System), our traditional way of governance.<\/p>\n
No matter the result, Anishinaabe Governance is\u2026 a leadership selection system determined by us.<\/p>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
