The Northwest Metis Council is hosting the Grand Opening of its new Governance Office on Monday. The event starts at 11:30 and will feature opening remarks from Mayor David Bosiak, MLA Brad Michaleski, and Manitoba Metis Federation President David Chartrand.
NWMC Vice President Francis Chartrand says they're working with the city to ensure the event can run safely.
"The streets will be blocked off, we're working in partnership with the City of Dauphin so they're blocking off the street right in front where we are, and they're going to be rerouting the traffic so it will be easier to stand out on our street when we're doing our ribbon cutting."
Chartrand says they have a great day planned, including tours of the building for people in attendance.
"We cleared up our Metis Community Centre, and we're gonna have tours are going to be going every half hour, and then we're going to have entertainment and snacks and stuff for us to do at the Metis Community Centre."
