Building a strong future that reflects who we are as the Epekwitnewaq Mi’kmaq
Pjila’si – Welcome to the Office of the Regional Chief of Epekwitk. Together, we stand in unity, guided by our ancestors’ strength and the Mi’kmaq Nation’s wisdom. We invite you to walk with us on this advocacy, reconciliation, and empowerment journey for our people.
As part of the Assembly of First Nations (AFN), our office represents and advocates for the interests of First Nations in Epekwitk (Prince Edward Island), both regionally and nationally. We also contribute to national advocacy efforts for all Indigenous peoples in Canada.
Our Work
Our work involves advancing issues that reflect the rights, priorities, and self-determination of PEI First Nations, from treaty rights to clean energy, climate change, economic development and many other pressing areas.
In partnership with First Nations leadership, community members and advocacy groups we’re committed to making meaningful changes in policies and programs that will positively shape the future for generations to come.
