August 13th, 2017: Long Plain First Nation (Portage La Prairie, MB) has become the 75th Framework Agreement Signatory to ratify their community land code! With great excitement, and a 90% approval by voting members, Long Plain’s 4384 hectare, 4454-member Ojibway nation has regained governance control over their reserve lands and resources! This proud, forward thinking, and progressive community can now look towards the many benefits of this reacquired jurisdiction. Congratulations Long Plain!
