On May 31, the Manitoba Métis Federation will have their election.
Their government is calling for a President and from each local a Vice-President and two Directors.
David Gray, MMF Chief Electoral Officer, tells 730 CKDM that people have to vote at in their local.
“People must vote in the region in which the local to which they belong is so that for instance if you live in Winnipeg but belong to the Dauphin local, you must vote in the Dauphin local. Similarly if live in Dauphin and belong to the Thompson local, you must vote in Thompson, either at the advanced poll, where those polls are located or on election day at polling place which is assigned to your local.”
Advanced polling takes place on May 24 and 25 at designated stations.
Nomination papers for any of the positions are due by Tuesday at 5:00.
