This site is live but still under construction as we continue to develop and expand it.
The Federation is committed to honouring the spirit and intent of the Treaties, as well as the promotion, protection and implementation of the Treaty promises that were made more than a century ago.
![Today, we remember and honour the late Jordan River Anderson on his birthday.
He was a young boy from Norway House Cree Nation in Manitoba, and lived with multiple disabilities. Jordan passed away, and lived over two years in a hospital because the federal and provincial/territorial governments could not agree on who would pay for the services for First Nation's children on-reserve.
We now have Jordan's Principle, the child-first principle that upholds the human rights for all First Nations children.
āJordan could not talk, yet people around the world heard his message. Jordan could not breathe on his own and yet he has given the breath of life to other children. Jordan could not walk but he has taken steps that governments are now just learning to follow.ā - Cindy Blackstock, Executive Director First Nations Child & Family Caring Society [Source: First Nations Caring Society]
