CONSTITUTION COMMITTEE
The Misswezahging Chi-Naakinagewin Committee is a committed group of volunteers, council members and staff, acting as advisers for Chief and Council regarding the process for law-making and support decision-making pertaining to Misswezahging Chi-Naakinagewin.

In the times of our ancestors, our Peoples followed and lived according to the Natural World and Natural Laws of Creation, with the understanding that Anishinaabe Naakinagewin regulated social behaviors, initiated cultural lifestyles and imparted knowledge through the generations. This knowledge passed down through stories, ceremonies and living a traditional way of life.

Revitalizing our Anishinaabe Naakinagewin is critical to living Mino-Bimaadziwin, promoting a healthy community. Not only must we revitalize our legal order, but the Chi-Naakinagewin Committee is committed to rebuilding and reinstating our culture and way of life for our members.

We are exercising our inherent right to self-government by identifying accountability practices and developing a respectful foundation based on Anishinaabe Naakinagewin. Our law making process continues to protect and preserve lands, language, and traditions within Misswezahging Territory.
