What IS WNNB?

The Wolastoqey Nation in New Brunswick was formed in 2017 to help coordinate and provide technical support and advice to the Wolastoqey Communities in New Brunswick: Matawaskiye, Neqotkuk, Pilick, Sitansisk, Welamukotuk, and Wotstak.

The Wolastoqey Nation in New Brunswick is not the rights holder, nor the body to which the duty to consult is owed.

Our Role

Our role is to provide technical support and advice to the Wolastoqey Communities in New Brunswick on matters that relate to Wolastoqey constitutionally protected Aboriginal and Treaty Rights.

Our Mandate

Our mandate is to ensure Wolastoqey Communities can be properly consulted in a way that upholds Wolastoqey constitutionally protected Aboriginal and Treaty Rights.
