NEED HELP ASAP WITH LAWYERS FEES
We are helping a lady in court to get her
kids back. The metis lawyer is willing to promo the job, so that the lady
doesn't have to worry about lawyers fees. The lawyer is just asking for
traveling expenses from Victoria and back, and it would be better to stay here
in a hotel for three nights. So if you can help us, just call us to make
the arrangements and make cheque out to the lawyer. God Bless!
I would like to thank the
RESTORE for donating the three sinker and single sink!
We are now under way to renovate our kitchen, and stores like

We had someone helping us renovate the kitchen,
but he has moved on now. So we're looking for someone that can
help us with the renovation. The floor has been torn out and
new tile will be laid down, and the counters have been torn out too.
They need to be rebuilt and put in the three sinker and single sink
in. Also, I need to put in a 220 wire for the stove. We
may have to run the wire on the outside walls downstairs to the
panel, so we will need coax cable.
Sinks for the kitchen /
I got a three sinker and
a single sink from Restore
Faucet for the sink /
Got a faucet now.
Fridge / Got a
fridge
Electrical wiring that needs to be done:
In some of the rooms I need a plug.
We had an
electrician come in and put in two breakers into the panel.
We now have two rooms downstairs where the plugs work.
A wrong breaker was put in for the hot water tank, and so
the electrician put in a right breaker for the hot water
tank. The electrician will come in to add two new
plugs upstairs, one for the stage and one for the coffee
area and it will be on it's own circuts.
I need wire added for the stove in the
kitchen (220)
I need to add plugs in different areas of the
building.
Upstairs:
The stage needs to have two plugs
The main office needs to have a plug
added.
The foyer needs to have a plug added.
We need a plug added outside of the
building.

Fire Alarm System
Our mission is to mobilize aboriginal people towards
self-reliance and independence. We do this
through "working together for our children" to
identify solutions to problems we all face in our
communities.
United Native Nations (UNN) of British Columbia was
formed in order to address the political and
socio-economic concerns of non-status aboriginal in
British Columbia (formerly known as the BC Association
of Non-Status Indians). BCANSI formally changed
its name to the United Native Nations Society in 1977
as a more accurate depiction of its membership
(status, non-status and Metis).
The UNN represents approximately 90,000 people in BC
with membership open to ANYONE OF ABORIGINAL ANCESTRY.
Membership qualifications is based solely on
aboriginal ancestry not on artificial definitions by
an outdated Canadian Indian Act. The UNN
currently has a membership base of 24,000 people.
Our major concern is to properly represent and protect
the interests of the aboriginal people who currently
have no voice on government decisions affecting their
life and culture.
Currently, the UNN is working in concert with the
CONGRESS OF ABORIGINAL PEOPLES, which is a national
organization representing off-reserve, non-status and
Metis people, and is headquartered in Ottawa.
Please view the UNN Website at

We are building
a better community...together!
