The McMurray Métis Fest was back in action in Fort McMurray over the weekend.
Celebrated annually, the event was put on hold for the past two years due to the COVID-19 pandemic. President of McMurray Métis Peter Hanson says that this is the biggest one they have had yet.
Following the successful turnout, Hanson adds that the Métis Fest is for the whole community of Fort McMurray to enjoy the day and the culture.
Hanson says that it’s a great sight to see that the youth from all school districts from the Wood Buffalo area attended the event to enjoy the Métis culture, calling them the “future Fort McMurray.”
