Every year, Citizens and Leaders are invited to participate at the AGM either in person or online. The Resolutions that are passed or defeated at the AGM inform MNBC’s priorities and mandates.
Judicial

The CEO reports to the democratically elected Board of Directors as their sole employee, delivering updates and receiving direction based on Citizen priorities. The CEO is part of MNBC’s Senior Leadership Team, which includes the Chief Financial Officer, the Chief Strategy Officer, and the Chief Operating Officer.
Reporting to the Senior Leadership Team are MNBC’s Ministries, who deliver programs and services to Métis Citizens across the province.
