About Us
The Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs was created in 1988 by First Nations in Manitoba to coordinate political action and technical work on common issues. It is a product of political and social developments that have been underway for decades.
Faced with the domination and assimilation policies of Canada’s Department of Indian Affairs, First Nations have long recognized their common interests and the strength to be found in solidarity.

HONOURING THE TEACHINGS OF GRATITUDE 🙏
On this Thanksgiving Day, we honour our teachings of gratitude as shares by our Elders and passed down from our ancestors. As First Nations, we give thanks to the Creator for the gift of life and to Mother Earth for the sacred food that nourishes us. Feasting is more than a meal; it is a spiritual offering, a way to give thanks for the abundance we’ve been given and to share that good feeling with our families and communities.
Today, let us reflect on our sacred relationship with the land, our spirit, and each other.
Thank you Creator for all the blessings.

Celebrating Historical Women Leaders 🌸
First Nations history is rich with the stories of powerful women leaders who paved the way for generations to come.
Thanadeltth’er was a courageous Dene woman whose impact on history continues to inspire us. In the early 1700s, Thanadeltth’er became a peacemaker between the Cree and the Dene peoples, navigating harsh terrains and bridging cultural divides. Her strength, intelligence, and diplomatic skills helped foster peaceful relations and established trade between First Nations and European settlers.
Thanadeltth’er’s legacy reminds us of the power of First Nations women in shaping history and building bridges for future generations
