Power deal signed

The provincial government is looking to First Nations to play a bigger role in producing electricity for the province.

The Government, SaskPower and the newly established First Nations Power Authority have signed a Memorandum of Understanding that will help the province's First Nations advance their power generation projects.

A number of First Nations have projects in the works including the Beardy’s Okemasis First Nation and James Smith Cree Nation.

Each of the 74 Saskatchewan First Nations will have the opportunity to hold membership in the FNPA.

They will also participate in the governance through its board of directors.
