Wikwemikong Unceded Indian Reserve's Vision Statement

Developing a community vision statement is a key component of a CCP. A vision statement is a forward‐looking statement. It is broad, inclusive and empowering. The vision statement tells a story about us and it tells people what we aspire to. A draft vision statement was developed and then confirmed in the community through a collaborative and inclusive process as part of the CCP development. For information on this process, see Appendix B. Our CCP vision statement for WUIR is as follows;

Wikwemikong Unceded Indian Reserve honours our traditions and upholds our Anishinaabe language, culture and identity. We value self‐sufficiency, holistic
well‐being, and safety with a commitment to respect and care for our people, lands, resources and environment.

Mino bimaadziwin ka‐naag‐doonaa!

Proud, Progressive, Prosperous!
