First Nations leaders within Nishnawbe Aski Nation has selected Alvin Fiddler to remain as Grand Chief.
He was appointed leader last year after NAN’s executive removed former Grand Chief Derek Fox for violations of their code of conduct.
Fiddler was also Grand Chief between 2015 and 2021.
Fiddler’s election as Grand Chief came as Treaty #9 Chiefs gather for the Keewaywin Conference in Thunder Bay.

- Anna Betty Achneepineskum, Marten Falls First Nation
