Our Government
Sakom (Chief) Allan Polchies Jr.
I became the first LGBTQ2AI+ chief in Atlantic Canada in 2018. I was formerly a councilor at St. Mary’s First Nation for a period of 13 years. I have also worked within the Band Administration for several years as Community Planner which allowed me to be involved in community activities surrounded with language, culture, ceremony and communal celebrations. I am committed to leading my people with dedication, integrity, and sincere enthusiasm. I will continue to work everyday for a better tomorrow.
