SASKATOON -- Métis National Council President Clement Chartier says a recent change to Métis Nation-Saskatchewan's voting rules is too exclusionary. During a small protest in Saskatoon on Thursday, Chartier said the Election Act was amended in the past year to state that only those registered with Métis Nation Saskatchewan (MN-S) have a right to vote on issues pertaining to the organiziation. "Prior to that, any Métis 16 years of age and up would simply show up and swear a declaration that you’re Métis, and then you’re allowed to vote.," Chartier said this morning. It can take anywhere from two to six months for someone to become registered with MN-S, according to their website.
