Governed by elected Chief & council since 1988, Michel First Nation has approximately 750 status members listed on the Alberta General list (maintained by the department of Indian and Northern Affairs Canada). In the absence of Band status, the Friends of Michel Society (FMS) was formed by Michel First Nation to provide a legal entity. Although, Michel First Nation has received funding support in the past from the department of Indian and Northern Affairs Canada to provide basic services to our membership - we do not currently access support from the Government of Canada. Chief and Councillors of Michel First Nation (Board of Directors of the Society) work as volunteers.
The Friends of Michel Society is an incorporated, not-for-profit, membership-based coalition formed to advocate for the rights and interests of our members. Being accountable and transparent to our members, a financial report is provided at our annual general assembly (held July/August each year)
