30.07.060 Effective Date

The provisions of this Act will be effective date of adoption and will remain in effect until repealed or amended.

It has been taught to the Anishinabe or more commonly known as Chippewa people, that water was the first medicine given to the Anishinabe by our Creator—it is a basic resource, a fundamental form of wealth. No other resource—human, agriculture, or mineral can be developed without it. Life exists on Mother Earth because there is w ater here. Water can exist where there is no life to be found. Where water is absent, so is life. Midewiiwin teaching. Tom Davis
