Greetings from Derek Montague, the new Sivunivut Chairperson
Posted 28 March 2017, 11:21 am NDT
Dear Nunatsiavut Beneficiaries in North West River and Sheshatshiu,
I am extremely proud to have been elected as the new Sivunivut Inuit Community Corporation Chairperson. I believe it is a privilege to be in a position to make a wonderful community an even better place to live.
I've only started my position with the Nunatsiavut Government a little while ago, but I've already talked to several beneficiaries as well as our Program Coordinator and have gotten some great ideas on how to move forward with the corporation. As Chairperson, I am confident I will be able to work closely with my dedicated volunteer board to bring the best ideas into action.
Prior to being elected into the Nunatsiavut Government, I spent seven years of my life either studying or practicing journalism. The communication skills I've learned throughout that time will be very beneficial in my new position. It's my intention to keep the people I represent informed on what is happening with Sivunivut on a regular basis.
On top of my duties as the Sivunivut Inuit Community Corporation Chairperson, I also serve, on a volunteer basis, as the Mayor of North West River.
My office door, located in the town office building in North West River, is always open for drop in visits as long as I'm not in a meeting. Please come and visit if you have any questions or concerns.
You can also call me during regular office hours at 709 497 8444, or send me an email at derek.montague@nunatsiavut.com.
