The MNS has established a stand-alone committee responsible for overseeing the development of culture, heritage and language within the Metis Nation - Saskatchewan. A number of community organizations run by Métis citizens have undertaken festivals and days of celebration across the province. The Prince Albert Métis Fall Festival , the Métis Spring Fest in Saskatoon, Métis Days at St. Victoire by Assiniboia, Lebret Days; Crescent Lake are but a few examples of these activities. In northwest Saskatchewan community members gather for Palmbere Days held each year at Palmbere Lake. The Métis Nation - Saskatchewan proudly hosts Back to Batoche Days each year in July. These celebrations, along with events across the Homeland remind us of the rich cultural traditions we have inherited. We encourage you to participate wherever possible and to show support to the many volunteers that make these celebrations possible.

At this point in time, many of the artifacts and collections of art work and tools are held in various museums across the homeland and elsewhere. The MNS hopes to develop a specific archives and museum facility in the province where families can donate articles to the Metis Nation for safekeeping for generations to come.

Michif is the official language of the Métis Nation although many of our people speak other Aboriginal languages such as Cree, Dene and Saulteaux. This committee is charged with the responsibility for developing strategies and plans for the maintenance and restoration of the Michif language. The Gabriel Dumont Institute has begun this work with a series of children's books and tapes, which can be ordered through the Institution's publication services. The federal government has a four-year Aboriginal languages program that throughout the Métis National Council the Métis were able to secure 10% for the preservation and enhancement of the Michif language. The MNS is currently in year three of the four-year program. Michif workshops were held in various locations throughout the province, in addition to several national ones.
