The Mountain Métis are committed to opening up a dialogue with industry and government in order to have meaningful consultation. By nature, the Mountain Métis have been businessmen and have over 200 years in land management expertise. Consultation is critical in order to come up with effective land management plans.

Further consultation between the Canadian Federal Government is also needed. The Federal Government has been slow in acknowledging the Mountain Métis. The Local wishes to look to a more meaningful dialogue with Parks Canada.

The Alberta Government has also been slow to recognize the Mountain Métis. Various high level representatives have been instrumental in helping to address years of neglect by bringing the plight of the Mountain Métis community to the Alberta Government’s attention. We are most hopeful as a result of this change in attitude.
