About this listen

Membertou First Nation in Una'ma'ki (Cape Breton, NS) is a rapidly growing, progressive urban reserve. Its infrasture growth has been phenomenal during the past two decades.

In this episode, host Richard Perry speaks with Melissa MacDonald, Manager of Taxation and Lands, to learn more about the community's success. Recorded at the Leading the Way 7 conference in Treaty Six territory, Edmonton, Alberta.
