MNA counsel Jason Madden will attend the celebration, to be held at the Blatchford Air Hangar at Fort Edmonton Park, to talk about the decision. MNA President Audrey Poitras will be addressing the group. A stew and bannock feast, cultural entertainment, and dance will round out the free celebration.
