The Annual General Meeting (AGM) took place September 18-20, 2026 at the Sheraton Vancouver Airport Hotel, 7551 Westminster Hwy, Richmond, B.C. and online via Zoom.
This is MNBC’s most important governance event of the year. It is an opportunity for Citizens to gather as a community and vote on resolutions to guide the direction of MNBC. All ages welcome. Although anyone can watch the AGM on our YouTube, MNBC Citizens 18+ must be in person at the venue or online via Zoom to vote on resolutions.
Here are some of the things you can look forward to.
- Business Meeting: Listen to presentations and vote on resolutions.
- Friday Welcome Reception: Mingle and enjoy some light refreshments.
- Business Mixer (by invitation): Network with other Métis owned businesses.
- Trade Show: Check out work by Métis artisans and stop by tables sharing resources and information about MNBC programs and services.
- Health Fair: Enjoy a full lineup of wellness offerings including diabetes, blood pressure, and cancer screenings, a hearing clinic, massages, cultural activities, and daily morning walks with our Ministry of Health & Wellness! Health authority partners will also share their efforts to improve service delivery and recruitment across the province.
