Welcome to the 38th Annual Treaty & York Boat Days

Tansi. On behalf of the Norway House Cree Nation Council, I extend greetings to everyone, especially to our Elders, Youth and to all the Guests who are visiting our community this week.

To our Guests, it is our desire to make your visit enjoyable and to be free from any unpleasant situations. I am asking our community members to extend a warm welcome to all visitors and to assist them wherever they may need assistance or require information.

It is a great pleasure to be here this year and to celebrate Treaty & York Boat Days with you. We are gathering in our community of Norway House this week to enjoy the festivities that are going to be happening and to participate in competitions scheduled to take place in the next few days.

A celebration is a time for families and friends to come together; to share laughter and to share stories with each other. It is about harmony and sharing friendship with those around you, and to enjoy each other's company.

I want to encourage everyone to come out and be a part of our traditional annual event.

Ekosani and may God bless you all and our celebration!

Sincerely,

Chief Ron Evans
