This website will include links to historic scrip information, as well as census documents and other MNA citizenship card application resources. Please be patient while I work on it. As well, I would welcome postings and inquiries from any Metis in Region 3 who are having difficulty doing their paperwork/geneology or have questions.
Application kits are available by mail for adults and children by calling the Metis Nation of Alberta Region 3 office at 1-800-267-5844 or 403-569-8800 or online at the MNA website…. http://www.albertametis.com/MNAHome/Home.aspx Click on Registry and Membership tab on the left.
