Dear Citizens of Champagne and Aishihik First Nations,
As we move through the election period, we want to take a moment to explain the role of the Council during this time and reassure you that essential services and governance will continue without interruption.
During the election period, the Council operates under what is known as the caretaker convention. This means that while the election is ongoing, the Council focuses on routine administration and urgent matters that are in the public interest. The caretaker convention ensures that no significant decisions are made that could bind the incoming Council or influence the election process. This approach respects democratic principles and maintains the integrity of our governance.
For our Citizens, this means that essential services such as health, education, and community support will continue as usual. The administration remains fully operational, ensuring that the needs of our Citizens are met during this transitional period.
For candidates running for Council, we want to assure you that the current Council is acting within the limits of the caretaker convention. Decisions are being made with careful consideration to ensure they are routine, non-controversial, and necessary for the continued functioning of our government. Any significant or long-term decisions are deferred until the new Council is in place.
We are committed to transparency and accountability during this period. If you have any questions or concerns about the caretaker convention or the role of the Council during this time, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Thank you for your understanding and support as we navigate this important democratic process together. ... See MoreSee Less
