On Monday a virtual ceremony took place where the Métis Nation British Columbia (MNBC) President Clara Morin Dal Col, and Northern Health Authority (NH) Board Chair Colleen Nyce, signed a Letter of Understanding (LOU).
MNBC Minister of Health, Susie Hooper, and Northern Health President & CEO Cathy Ulrich were the official witnesses of the signing.
“This Letter of Understanding acknowledges our partnership with the Metis Nation to support the health and wellness of Metis people across the northern region,” said Colleen Nyce, NH Board Chair.
“We look forward to the collective work ahead of us as we come together to ensure that the planning and delivery of health programs and services to Métis individuals, families and communities within the Northern Health region are accessible and culturally appropriate,” said MNBC President Morin Dal Col.
Ten MNBC Chartered Communities are served by Northern Health, including the Métis Nation New Caledonia Society in Vanderhoof, North Cariboo Métis Association in Quesnel and the Prince George Métis Community.
