Mississauga Nation
It is not a means to an end it is our means to the future
It is not about financial growth, it is not about political clout
These things will come as they must
But nationhood is about whom we are, who our children are
It is the recognition that we were and are a nation unto ourselves
Our nation stems from our shared history, culture, language and values
First and foremost we are brothers and sisters, families
No boundaries of land or government tactics have ever stopped me from being your brother
We have been apart for some time, but no more
It is not right to keep our families, our communities apart
So we will walk together, we will rejuvenate our nation
We will take the first step to the past, a past that will ensure our future
Our first step must be one of education, education of our shared history
Our elders can provide this knowledge
We must walk before we run, we must remember and teach
But we must not wait, our people want this, our children need this
All of our internal issues all our external issues will be resolved in time Our fights will be many, but we will win, for we must
Nationhood is not a means to an end It is the path to our people's future

​Chief R. Stacey Laforme
