Introduction to the Graphic Identifier
for the Meadow Lake First Nations
We are pleased to introduce the
new Meadow Lake First Nations Governance logo. From time immemorial,
First Nations have utilized the age-old skill of mnemonics (pronounced
ni-'män-iks). This logo brings a story
from our memories.
It is full of meaning starting with the sunrise. The
sunrise brings a new day. This new day provides a chance to improve
on the day before. Along with the new day come new challenges. These
challenges can be overcome by our people as a whole.
The sun rays each represent our bands. In the
middle is a picture of a family in their birch bark canoe. Both the
Cree and Dene shared resources, technologies, sciences, medicines, and
governance to maintain peace, friendship and partnerships. The waters,
trees and land represent the wealth of our resources and that we must
continue to adapt in order to prosper and flourish on our lands.
