About Eastern Region II
Eastern Region 2 (ER 2) is one of the twelve regions of the Métis Nation–Saskatchewan (MN-S).
Our region encompasses 10 vibrant Metis Locals: Melfort #22, Tisdale #222, Nipawin #134, Carrot River #137, Hudson Bay #114, Porcupine Plain, Chelan #111, Archerwill #58, Sturgis #138, and Wynyard #116. Each Local consists of an elected President, Vice-President and other executive members.
The elected Presidents from each Local make up ER 2’s Regional Council.
