Our Role & Mandate

To provide the infrastructure and expertise for matters that affect the interests of the Saugeen Ojibway Nation and assist the Chiefs and Councils of the Saugeen Ojibway Nation in asserting First Nation jurisdiction in the SON Territory.

We work with the Saugeen Ojibway Nation Joint Chiefs and Councils to serve the Saugeen Ojibway Nation people, encompassing the communities of Neyaashiinigmiing and Saugeen. Our office reports directly to Joint Council, but works closely with both Band Offices. Nuclear issues, quarries, and issues impacting our land and waters are just a few examples of the areas our office is responsible for.
