Thanks to the hard work of our employees and the collaboration of our many partners, we have successfully implemented many different programs, ranging from the training of Crees for skilled jobs with Hydro-Quebec (over 50 Crees now occupy permanent positions), the rejuvenation of Cree community and family fisheries, the support of numerous cultural activities including summer gatherings and the enhancement of goose hunting facilities. This is not to mention the hundreds of kilometres of snowmobile and ATV trails already built throughout Eeyou Istchee.
On its 20th anniversary, Niskamoon Corporation salutes The Nation magazine and wishes it many more years of success and positive change.

In Brief
Staging a Christmas favourite
Some of you may still remember all those amazing Christmas dreams you had when you were young. Well, take note that Les Grands Ballets Canadiens are performing the classic “The Nutcracker” this holiday season.
This is a wonderful opportunity to take a nocturnal journey into a phantasmagorical world of dazzling sets and colourful outfits. Visit the legendary Land of Snow, enjoy the Land of Sweets, and meet the Sugarplum Fairy! And as your voyage unfolds, you will meet over 150 sparklingly costumed characters.
Since many Cree will be travelling to Montreal to do their Christmas shopping, this is a great opportunity for you and your young ones to enjoy an evening filled with magic and dreams. “One isn’t born grand, one becomes so.” The Nutcracker runs from December 12 to 30.
