Each year citizens
of the Metis Nation of Ontario gather for the Annual General
Assembly somewhere in Ontario. We gather together to conduct
business, mandates to the executive, hear annual reports
from various MNO departments, but most of all, gather
together for five days and enjoy our time together.Photos
