Former Grand Chief Has Eye On AFN

The former Grand Chief of Treaty #3 is in the running for the top post with the Assembly of First Nations.
Diane Kelly has officially announced her candidacy for the Grand Chief position.
Kelly says it will now be a busy time on the road as she will be meeting with as many Canadian Chiefs as she can.
Kelly says there hasn’t been a strong treaty voice over the past 4-years and notes she’s ready to challenge the majority Government.
Eight others are in the field including incumbent Shawn Atleo.
Voting takes place July 18th
Kelly was defeated by Warren White in last month’s Treaty #3 elections.
