I have a membership card from one of the Metis National Councils Governing Members – can I hunt?
Yes, if you can also provide proof of an ancestral and ongoing connection to a historic Metis community in the territory where you are hunting. However, because the Metis National Council’s Governing Members are at different stages in the development of their respective registry systems across the Homeland, a membership card alone may not be sufficient as proof. You must ensure you meet all three elements of the Powley test.
