Council chapters take their message to the streets – and to communities all over Canada

The Council of Canadians relies on a network of over 70 volunteer chapters from across Canada to promote our national campaigns, act as local watchdogs, and promote social and economic justice on a day-to-day basis. This section features profiles of some of the Council’s chapters, highlighting the amazing work that they are doing in their communities.

Council of Canadians First Youth Chapter!

The Council of Canadians first youth chapter was formed in North Battleford, Saskatchewan in September 2006. The name of the chapter is Sakewew Awasisak which translated from Cree means Rising Youth. The students are currently working on water issues in indigenous communities. In December they have invited a guest speaker from the Indigenous Environmental Network to talk to them. Following this presentation they will be organizing a World Water Day event to be held in North Battleford.

The students work under the guidance of Vice Principal Reid Stewart.
