Canada-Métis Nation Accord

April 13, 2017

Official signing of Canada-Métis Nation Accord marks a significant step towards a renewed government-to-government relationship based on recognition of rights, respect, co-operation and partnership. It outlines the ways in which the Government of Canada and the Métis National Council and its Governing Members will work together to set priorities and develop policy in areas of shared interest. The Accord will bring a coordinated focus across the federal government in setting priorities and obtaining concrete actions and tangible results. The Accord established annual meetings with the Prime Minister, semi-annual meetings with key Cabinet ministers and quarterly meetings with Assistant Deputy Ministers and other senior officials.
