Welcome to the Eastern Woodland Métis Nation Nova Scotia

Our site is here for promoting Education, Training, Business opportunities and Leadership in Self-Governance. Our goal is to help our people reach their full potential and realize Economic, Cultural, Social and Spiritual wellness, while becoming more economically independent and self-reliant. It is hoped that this site will never be finished and that there will always be something new to pass on, promote, educate and inform the world about.

We do not inherit the Earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children, their future rests in our hands.

Over the life of the project, we have helped many talented métis to realize their full potential in the largest companies (Canoe.ca online casino, Nova Scotia Power, Innovacorp, MetOcean Telematics, CBC, Emera Inc.) and educational institutions (Dalhousie University, Nova Scotia Community College, Cape Breton University) of Nova Scotia as well as throughout Canada.
