Minister Oberle,
I write to you today in follow up to our previous correspondence with your predecessor, Aboriginal
Relations Minister Robin Campbell and to address a number of concerns relating to the actions of the
Alberta government against the Lubicon Lake Nation including: Alberta's consultation and
accommodation policies, a"federally endorsed' so-called election inFebruary 2013, and its detrimental
effects on Lubicon economy, community, and the social fabric of our nation. The lubicon Lake Nation
remains a sovereign nation with the sole authority to enter into negotiations regarding our lands and
resources in a Nation to Nation context with the Crown. This authority cannot be transferred or assigned
without the consent of the Lubicon Lake Nation citizens in accordance with our laws, traditions and
customs. We are quite confident you are aware of the boundaries of Lubicon Lake Nation territory which
includes lands agreed upon in the Grimshaw Accord 1988.
As you are well aware, the Lubicon Lake Nation has previously expressed our disagreement with
Alberta's policies and implementation of its' duty to consult and accommodate the Lubicon Lake Nation
with regards to industrial development on Lubicon lands. We would also like to take this opportunity to
advise you of a serious intellectual property issue. It appears that the Government of Alberta is
advertising through its Consultation Contacts list, an entity which closely resembles or is intended to
misrepresent itself as the Government of the Lubicon lake Nation. The Lubicon Lake Nation is an
existing and registered public authority as recognized by the Government of Canada. Registration
documentation identifying our trademark is attached to this communication. The Government of
Alberta Consultation Contacts listing identifies a "tubicon Lake Band", with a contact of Wayne Auger
and a mailing address in St. Isidore, Alberta. There is no person named Wayne Auger employed by the
Lubicon Lake Nation and our mailing address remains unchanged from our Peace River post box. It is our
belief that this listing has been created in order to improperly redirect industry proponents away from
the Government of the Lubicon Lake Nation by representing another entity with a name designed to
confuse or closely represent our trademark. We request that this listing be edited or removed without
delay in order to remedy this situation.

Your predecessor has also communicated to us and made reference to an entity he calls the "Lubicon
Lake Band", which we understand to be a fraudulent creation by Aboriginal Affairs and Northern
Development Canada (AAND-C). This is clearly yet another attempt to undermine the lawful government
of the Lubicon Lake Nation. As you stated publicly, AAND-C "endorsed" a fraudulent election which was
held outside of our communities, outside of our laws, without the involvement of our people or our
government. As you also mentioned, AAND-C and the Province have gone on to recognize the results of
this charade as some form of valid government. The Lubicon community has and will continue to contest
the validity ofthis process and its results, as previously indicated in over 100 letters from the community
to Minister Valcourt in March 2013, publicly denouncing the validity of those results and finally with the
Government of the Lubicon Lake Nation calling another election in accordance with our laws which was
held on May 30, 2013. This fraudulent interference by Canada into the governance of the Lubicon Lake
Nation is also currently before the courts referenced in a widely publicized court action taken by the
Lubicon Lake Nation against Alberta and Canada, filed in the Court of Queen's Bench in Calgary in J une,
2013.
To be clear, the Lubicon Lake Nation and its people are not represented in any form by any other entity
than the Government ofthe Lubicon Lake Nation as elected in accordance with The Government of the
Lubicon Lake People on May 30, 2013. The Government of the Lubicon Lake People is a document which
contains the partial codification of the laws that have governed our people since time immemorial;
which were approved during a General Assembly of the Lubicon Lake Nation in 1988. These laws have
not been changed or altered and continue to dictate our governance structure in accordance with our
inherent and aboriginal right to self-determination as protected by international law and the Canadian
Constitution. We believe you are aware of the results of the Lubicon Lake Nation General Election held
on May 30,2013, however, in the event you are unclear who our duly elected representatives are, a
copy ofthe ChiefElectoral Officer's report, supervised and authored by Loretta Pete Lambert, who also
acts as Chief Electoral Officer for the Assembly of First Nations, is attached to this communication.
Despite the large volume of revenue generated by resource industries in the Lubicon Lake Nation
territory, our people and communities remain well below the poverty line in some of the poorest
housing conditions in the country. It should be noted that new housing and renovations have rarely
been provided by AAND-C to the Lubicon Lake Nation. These are all ongoing issues which we have
previously made both you and your predecessor aware of. We have learned from our citizens, who have
been approached with offers of new homes, that new housing is being installed in our community in
some form. However, those Lubicon citizens indicate that they are being asked to align their political
beliefs with a 'band' and 'chief they do not recognize. These actions show that the provision of new
housing is less about addressing Lubicon needs, and more about furthering a federal political position
interfering with the self-determination ofthe Lubicon Lake Nation by bribing our citizens with housing
benefits that have been improperly withheld for decades. The Government of the Lubicon Lake Nation
wishes to discuss with you, what level of involvement your department has in these activities.
Over the last 20 years, the Lubicon Lake Nation has attempted to build a modern economy by serving
parts of the oil and gas industry within our territory. We experienced moderate success despite an often
unwilling industry. Our office has been made aware of specific messaging coming from your department
and Alberta Environment and Sustainable Resources (AESRD)to industry operators in our area,
specifically directing them to withhold contracts and employment from Lubicon Lake Nation contractors.
Actions taken by the Government of Alberta through its Aboriginal Relations, Environment and
Sustainable Resources, and Energy departments have decimated the local economy of our communities
and made a large portion of the Lubicon Lake Nation population who were gainfully employed through
those efforts, welfare dependant or otherwise unemployed, destroying over two decades of hard won
economic growth in the Lubicon Lake Nation community. We would very much like to discuss those
actions and the resulting effects on our community with you in detail at a face to face meeting.
We remain the sole holders of unextinguished Aboriginal Rights and Title to our land and resources and
wish to advise you, again, that we are not represented in any matter by the so-called "Lubicon Lake
Band", fraudulently created by AAND-C and referred to by your predecessor. Indian Band #453 is only a
creation of the Crown by Order in Council in 1973. It has no ability to hold Aboriginal Title or Aboriginal
Rights as they are vested in the collectivity of the Nation. This includes matters of consultation and
accommodation in accordance with the honor of the Crown as required by Canadian law, as well as the
principles of free prior and informed consent as required by the United Nations Declaration on the
Rights of Indigenous people which should be afforded to us, as lawful representatives of the Lubicon
Lake Nation. We trust that the Lubicon Lake Nation representatives will be added to the provincial listing
of Consultation Contacts for industry without delay. In order to assist with this, a copy of the Lubicon
Lake Nation Consultation Contacts is also attached to this communication.
Finally, given the desperate state of our community as a result of these issues, the Government of the
Lubicon Lake Nation feels a meeting with you personally should occur to address these outstanding
concerns. We would like to request a meeting between yourself and Chief Ominayak and the Lubicon
Lake Nation Council at the Lubicon Lake Nation Administration Office in Little Buffalo at your earliest
convenience. Please contact our office at (780) 629-3945 or myself directly at (780) 625-2576 or via
email to Admin@LubiconLakeNation.ca to arrange a mutually convenient time for such a meeting.

REPORT OF THE CHIEF ELECTORAL OFFICER
LORETTA J PETE LAMBERT
LUBICON LAKE FIRST NATION ELECTION
BACKGROUND
The Chief Electoral Officer was appointed on April 27, 2013 for the purpose of
conducting the 2013 Lubicon Lake Nation General Election in accordance with the
custom code of the Lubicon Lake Nation. Upon discussion about the previous issues
relating to the election, the Chief Electoral Officer requested the use of legal counsel to
ensure not only preparation but supervision of the election to ensure all issues of voter
eligibility were prepared for.
NOTICE OF THE ELECTION:
As required by the Lubicon Lake Government document, at least 20 clear days are
required for the call of the Election. Therefore on May 8, 2012, the Chief and Council
declared an election as per the requirement. Also as per the requirement of section of
the Government, the Notice for the Lubicon Lake Nation General Election was posted
on May 8, 2013. The notice is attached as Appendix A.
LEGAL ANALYSIS:
Upon appointment, a legal analysis of all available EO reports and any pertinent case
lawthat would have applicability in the 2013 Election was done. Two issues were
isolated as critical:
1. the eligibility of voters regarding residency on Lubicon Lake Traditional
territory and
2. the procedure to be used in the possibility that at least 10 eligible electors
call for a secret ballot. .
The analysis is attached as Appendix B.
The two issues were not raised at the meeting. The Membership Clerk had prepared
two lists: the band membership list and the voter eligibility list.
Security was at the main doors to ensure that eligible voting members were only
allowed to enter the poll with the exception of some witnesses. The witnesses were
asked to sit at a table located in the front.
1
PROCEDURES OF THE ELECTION
1. Pr eambl e:
Margaret Whitehead the Membership Clerk provided a map of the Lubicon Lake
Traditional Territory, a band list and an eligible voters' list. Such items are the property
of the First Nation and are not public documents.
2. INTRODUCTIONS AND OPENING REMARKS
The Chief Electoral Officer introduced herself and her legal counsel, Donald E Worme.
Loretta J Pete Lambert is from the Little Pine Cree Nation and Donald E Worme is from
the Kakacatoose First Nation, both in Saskatchewan. Loretta has at least 10years of
experience in the conducting of band custom and Indian Act elections. Mr. Worme has
at least 15years of experience providing legal counsel for electoral officers.
Loretta expressed her sincere thanks for the opportunity to be in the community to have
entrusted upon her the role as Chief Electoral Officer. The experience of executing a
traditional election is a truly humbling and honoring experience.
She asked Douglas Auger to come forward to sing a prayer song to start the meeting.
Douglas sang the song and the meeting started.
She then asked the incumbent Chief Bernard Ominayak to address the eligible voters
and witnesses (the non-voting and non-band members). Chief Ominayak spoke of the
sanctity of the leadership selection process and how such can be accomplished through
good acts and words. He asked that the membership present keep that in mind in this
election.
Following the Chiefs words, Electoral Officer repeated the words both in Cree and in
English. The Electoral Officer states that she is honored to come and work for the
Lubicon Cree people and that this process of leadership selection is a traditional and
respectful process. She acknowledges that this nation is not a treaty band. From
reading the other reports from the previous Electoral Officers, there are certain
processes that need to be answered. Electoral Officer asks is there anyone here that
cannot vote or should not vote? Some raised their hands. They were asked to come sit
at the front side table. The Electoral Officer explained the process of the nomination and
the election.
The Electoral Officer raised the question of what will the process be if there is a tie for
the last position for councilor? Upon a brief reflection, the Electoral Officer decided that
the issue would be dealt with if it rises. Chief Bernard Ominayak agreed and then voters
concurred that the issue will be decided if it should rise.
2
Then the electoral officer introduced the counters. One of the counters identified is Don
E. Worme. He is legal counsel for the Electoral Officer. The others are local non-voting

Mr. Sisson..
We are aware that a gathering purporting to be an 'election' was held for Lublcon Lake Nation on Feb 15, 2013 in
Cadotte Lake that chose a group of people to act as leaders of our Nation. We are also aware that you and your
government have recognized this group as the leaders of Lubicon Lake Nation.
This gathering was called by a society that does not have the authority to call an election for the Lubicon Lake
Nation. It was held in a different community, without the proper membership list, a Lublcon custom code or
mejoritv of Lubicon people. Rather, this group was chosen by Individuals who do not live in our community. This
gathering also chose a group, Billy J oe Laboucan, Brlan Laboucan, Cheryl Laboucan(McMann), Irene Laboucan, J oe
Auger and Mike Ominayak to act as representatives of our nation. This group also sits on the very society that .
called the 'election' who are employed by the third party. This is an obvious conflict of Interest that will only
benefit of your government.
We do not recognize Billy J oe Laboucan and his group as representatives for the Lublcon Lake Nation. They do not
-speak for us and more Importantly, they do not have our support. We do not believe that this group will act in the
best interests of our community as only one of them actually lives in Little Buffalo.
We have a government in place, our representatives are Chief Bernard Ominayak, and Council members are
Waiter Whitehead, Alphonse Ominayak, George Whitehead, Bryan Laboucan, Dwight Gladue, Larry Ominayak and
J ordie Sawan. This is our Chief and Council and they will continue to represent our nation In all capacities.
As the youth of Little Buffalo, we will nottolerate any more interference from your government in our community.

Dear Mr. Valcourt,
I am writing today as a deeply concerned and angry citizen of the Lubicon Lake Nation. I have been made aware of
a fraudulent election held on February 15, 2013 spearheaded by AAND-C through a Third Party Management
appointed "facilitator" named LorneTernes. This election was not called by the Lubicon Lake Nation government,
was not attended by Lubicon Lake Nation resident citizens, was held outside our community at another First
Nation, was not sanctioned by our Elders' Council who form an integral part of our governance structure, and
purports to have elected a chief and four councillors for the Lubicon Lake Nation who don't even live in our
community!
This fraudulent election has been reportedly recognized by Aboriginal Affairs through J irn Sisson and is not only a
miscarriage of justice but an outrage. We are a sovereign Nation, we have our own laws, customs and traditions
and we follow them happily. Our Government led by Chief Bernard Ominayak was formed through custom
resolution to a previous dispute that was largely created as a result of AAND-C interference. That governance
resolution was affirmed by the vast majority of our citizenship in writing which far outweighs the number of
people who supposedly attended the fraudulent election held up by AAND-C and should be respected by your
government and department. I demand that your department and your government stop interfering in our
governance and do not recognize the result of any election not held in accordance with our custom and laws.
I look forward to your prompt and positive response.

Dear Mr. Moore,
I am writing today as a deeply concerned and angry citizen of the Lubicon Lake Nation. I have been made aware of
a fraudulent election held on February 15, 2013 spearheaded by AAND-C through a Third Party Management
appointed "facilitator" named Lorne Ternes. This election was not called by the Lubicon Lake Nation government,
was not attended by Lubicon Lake Nation resident citizens, was held outside our community at another First
Nation, was not sanctioned by our Elders' Council who form an integral part of our governance structure, and
purports to have elected a chief and four councillors for the Lubicon Lake Nation who don't even live in our
community!
This fraudulent election has been reportedly recognized by Aboriginal Affairs through J im 5isson and is not only a
miscarriage of justice but an outrage. We are a sovereign Nation, we have our own laws, customs and traditions
and we follow them happily. Our Government led by Chief Bernard Ominayak was formed through custom
resolution to a previous dispute that was largely created as a result of AAND-C interference. That governance
resolution was affirmed by the vast majority of our citizenship in writing which far outweighs the number of

Further, it was less than a month ago that Prime Minister Stephen Harper fired Senator Patrick Brazeau from the
Conservatives for sexual assault, so why has AAND-C hand picked a rapist as for us as Council. Thanks, but no
thanks, you can keep Mike Ominayak to yourself. I have girls of my own to think of. We also don't need a "dope-
head" for Chief, is this your way of getting rid of our people once and for all?

was not attended by Lubicon Lake Nation resident citizens, was held outside our community at another First
Nation, was not sanctioned by our Elders' Council who form an integral part of our governance structure, and
purports to have elected a chief and four councillors for the Lubicon Lake Nation who don't even live in our
community!
This fraudulent election has been reportedly recognized by Aboriginal Affairs through J im Sisson and is not only a
miscarriage of justice but an outrage. We are a sovereign Nation, we have our own laws, customs and traditions
and we follow them happily. Our Government led by Chief Bernard Ominayak was formed through custom
resolution to a previous dispute that was largely created as a result of AAND~C interference. That governance
resolution was affirmed by the vast majority of our citizenship in writing which far outweighs the number of
people who supposedly attended the fraudulent election held up by AAND-C and should be respected by your
government and department. I demand that your department and your government stop interfering in our
governance and do not recognize the result of any election not held in accordance with our custom and laws.

I am writing today as a deeply concerned and angry citizen of the Lubicon Lake Nation. I have been made aware of
a fraudulent election held on February 15, 2013 spearheaded by AAND-C through a Third Party Management
appointed "facilitator" named Lorne Ternes. This election was not called by the Lubicon Lake Nation government,
was not attended by Lubicon Lake Nation resident citizens, was held outside our community at another First
Nation, was not sanctioned by our Elders' Council who form an integral part of our governance structure, and
purports to have elected a chief and four councillors for the Lubicon Lake Nation who don't even live in our
community!
This fraudulent election has been reportedly recognized by Aboriginal Affairs through J im 51ssonand is not only a
miscarriage of justice but an outrage. We are a sovereign Nation, we have our own laws, customs and traditions

miscarriage of justice but an outrage. We are a sovereign Nation, we have our own laws, customs and traditions
and we follow them happily. Our Government led by Chief Bernard Ominayak was formed through custom
resolution to a previous dispute that was largely created as a result of AAND-C interference. That governance
resolution was affirmed by the vast majority of our citizenship in writing which far outweighs the number of
people who supposedly attended the fraudulent election held up by AAND-C and should be respected by your
government and department. I demand that your department and your government stop interfering in our
governance and do not recognize the result of any election not held in accordance with our custom and laws.
Ilook forward to your prompt and positive response.

DearMr. Moore,
I am writing today as a deeply concerned and angry citizen of the Lubicon Lake Nation. I have been made aware of
a fraudulent election held on February 15, 2013 spearheaded by AANO-C through a Third Party Management
aopointed "facilitator" named Lorne Ternes. This election was not called by the Lubicon Lake Nation gov ernment,
was not attended by Lubicon Lake Nation resident citizens, was held outside our community at another First
Nation, was not sanctioned by our Elders' Council who form an integral part of our governance structure, and
purports to have elected a chief and four councillors for the Lubicon Lake Nation who don't even live in our
community!
This fraudulent election has been reportedly recognized by Aboriginal Affairs through J im Sisson and is not only a
miscarriage of justice but an outrage. We are a sovereign Nation, we have our own laws, customs and traditions
arid we follow them happily. Our Government led by Chief Bernard Orninavak was formed through custom
resolution to a previous dispute that was largely created 8S Cl result of AANO-C interference. That governance
resolution W(1S affirmed by the vast majority of our citizenship in writing which far outweighs the number of
people who supposedly attended the fraudulent election held up by AANO( and should be respected by your
government and department. I demand that your department and your government stop interfering in our

Dear Mr. Moore,
I am writing today as a deeply concerned and angry citizen of the Lubicon Lake Nation. I have been made aware at
a fraudulent election held on February 15, 2013 spearheaded by AAND-C through a Third Party Management
appointed "facilitator" named Lorne Ternes. This election was not called by the Lubicon Lake Nation government.
was not attended by Lubicon Lake Nation resident citizens, was held outside our community at another First
Nation, was not sanctioned by our Elders' Council who form an integral part of our governance structure, and
purports to have elected a chief and four councillors for the Lubicon Lake Nation who don't even live in aLII'
community!
This fraudulent election has been reportedly recognized by Aboriginal Affairs through J im Sisson and is not onlv ::1
miscarriage of justice but an outrage. We are a sovereign Nation, we have our own laws, customs and traditions
and we follow them happily. Our Government led by Chief Bernard Ominayak was formed through custom
resolution to a previous dispute that was largely created as a result of AANO-C interference. That governance
resolution was affirmed by the vast majority of our citizenship in writing which far outweighs the number of
people who supposedly attended the fraudulent election held up by AAND-C and should be respected by your
government and department. I demand that your department and your government stop interfering in our
governance and do not recognize the result of any election not held in accordance with our custom and laws,
Further, it was less than a month ago that Prime Minister Stephen Harper fired Senator Patrick Brazeau trorn the
Conservatives for sexual assault, so why has AAND-C hand picked a rapist as for us as Council. Thanks, but no
thanks, you can keep Mike Ominayak to yourself. I have girls of my own to thinkof. We also don't need a "dope-
head" for Chief, is this your way of getting rid of our people once and for all?
I look forward to your prompt and positive response.

Dear Mr. Valcourt,
I am writing today as a deeply concerned and angry citizen of the lubicon Lake Nation. I have been made aware of
a fraudulent election held on February is, 2013 spearheaded by AAND-C through aThird Party Management
appointed "facilltator" named Lorne Ternes. This election was not called by the Lubicon Lake Nation government,
was not attended by Lubicon Lake Nation resident citizens, was held outslde our community at another First
Nation, was not sanctioned by our Elders' Council who form an integral part of our governance structure, and
purports to have elected a chief and four councillors for the Lubicon lake Nation who don't even live in our
communityl
This fraudulent election has been reportedly recognized by Aboriginal Affairs through J im Sisson and isnot only a
miscarriage of justice but an outrage. We are a sovereign Nation, we have our own laws, customs and traditions
and we follow them happily. Our Government led by Chief 6ernard Ominayak w.as formed through custom
resolution to a previous dispute that was largely created as aresult of AAND-C interference. That governance
resolution was affirmed by the vast majority of our citizenship in writing which far outweighs the number of
people who supposedly attended the fraudulent election held up by AAND-C and should be respected by your
government and department. I demand that your department and your government stop interfering in our
governance and do not recognize theresult of any election not held in accordance with our custom and laws.
flook forward to your prompt and positive response.
