The Lac La Ronge Indian Band (LLRIB), has had a “a formal offer of settlement from Canada and is now working on a final settlement agreement with Canada.” The update was posted by Chief Tammy Cook-Searson on her Facebook page on April 5, 2024. You can see the update by following the link.

This is an exciting time for many band members. They are many who are thankful for the news and are grateful that the announcement has finally arrived. It has been anticipated for years.

The post by Tammy has been shared, 230 times as of this writing. On some of the shared posts by members, there are questions on how the funds will be distributed and how the Settlement Planning Committee (SPC), will include all members of the band, including the minors. Below is a table of dates, locations and times:

Some people are concerned about the time and location of the meetings because there are members who will be working during the meetings. There members that live out of the province of Saskatchewan, and want to know how they can get the information that will be presented during the meetings. These are concerns that will have to be dealt with at some point.

I will be following the posts from LLRIB C & C closely, as they are the people that are the most up to date on the matter. I usually receive the updated info within the hour of the Facebook posts on my email. At which point I update the LLRIB.COM website. I am informed no more, and no less than everybody else.
