What do our communities need? Who decides and how do we go about getting those programs or services? We are coming up to a vote on the Constitution which will help define our future Stó:lō Xwexwílmexw nation. Mail-in ballots have been sent out and voting officially opens online on November 4 at onefeather.ca. In person voting also opens on November 13 and 14 in Leq’á:mel, Tzeachten and at our Stó:lō Nation Governance House. So what ARE we asking you to vote on? It’s not the treaty. Not yet. Our negotiators are still working on that. But in order to ensure we are all on the same page, we do need our communities to agree upon our Constitution first. This document defines how the six villages of the Stó:lō Xwexwílmexw will work together in the future as a government.
