Please read and understand what is happening.....

Members,

This is part of our history and it must be read by the best of our scholars. These issues still exist.

The Mackinac Bands of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians still exist. We are treaty Indians and have exercised our treaty rights , we are federally recognized under the 1820-1836-1855- Treaty Indians 14,650 are on the Sault Ste Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians rolls. Many more still exist .

We can only state what we know at this time and that is a facet of the the tribal enrollment of the Sault St. Marie tribe of Chippewa Indians, show that the population of the Mackinac Bands are more than the Sault tribe members , within their own tribe. How can this be without being challenged?
