Métis Nation of Alberta

Energy and Climate Change Community Engagement Sessions – Métis Nation of Alberta

Dates: Various dates (March 2024)
Locations: In-person and online (see below for more details)

Do you work in the energy sector or have thoughts about the transition away from fossil fuels? All Citizens of the Otipemisiwak Métis Government are welcome for conversation about where our energy comes from, the changing climate and how we advocate for Métis needs. 

Traditional decision-making often overlooks the needs and interests of fossil fuel workers, Indigenous peoples, and our communities. These sessions aim to cut through the noise by engaging in discussions specific to the Citizens of the Otipemisiwak Métis Government.

Communities

Community conversations are taking place across Canada:

Why Attend?

Canada’s economy is changing. We believe that listening to a diversity of people and opinions is vital to shaping a future where everyone can belong and thrive.

Community Talks events are small group conversations led by community members. We’ll start the discussion and where it goes is up to you. We’re here to listen.

  • Connect with your neighbours
  • Learn how others are thinking about extreme weather, job expansion and economic opportunities.
  • Financial incentives ($100/person)
  • Child care and travel costs will be reimbursed
