Pasqua First Nation Election Appeal


Pasqua First Nation Election Appeal
The Issue
Pasqua First Nation (PFN) held their Election for Chief & Council on March 3, 2025. Elected in as Chief Fabian Ironeagle (former Council) re-elected 7 Councilors and 1 new Councillor.
This election was unfair, bias and unethical. There were many violations of the First Nation Election Act by the Electoral Officer (EO) and current Chief & re-elected Council. Out of 1305 Urban Members, only 88 mail-in ballots were received. Many ballots were requested by Members - they did not receive them - even after numerous communications via emails were sent to the EO - who never responded at all. The election was suppressed from Urban Members to vote!
If we as Band Members keep turning a blind eye - then we don't have grounds to complain. We must now stand up for what is right! PFNs future depends on it! Let's be the Change we want to see - It's time to use our voices.
