Public Health and Safety

We are serious about establishing our sovereignty and about keeping our communities safe. During my time on Council, we have made important progress:

• Established a Peace Officer Program
• Re-created our Police Commission
• Made significant progress in our Police Force Application. 
• Created one of Canada’s first, First Nation By-Law Prosecutor’s Office
• Brought about an on-reserve In-patient Rehabilitative Treatment facility.
• Broke ground for an Animal Control Services building. 
• Passed and developed bylaws that protect the Nation. 

Our Prosecutor’s Office is already enforcing Nation laws in provincial court, including trespassing bylaws against non-members who unlawfully enter our lands. 

As new bylaws and services expand, our Peace Officers will continue strengthening community safety and accountability.

Re-establishing our own Police Service is crucial to keeping our people safe and completing our Police Application will be a priority. 

Public Health also means making access to health services for Nation members easier and looking to re-establish our Hospital on Siksika.
