The 2023 North American Indigenous Games will take place in Kjipuktuk (Halifax), Nova Scotia from July 15-23, 2023.  The theme for this year's games is Pjila'si - the Mi'kmaw word for welcome.  We want to hear from our young ambassadors (and parents/guardians for under 18 athletes) that will proudly represent the Nisga'a Nation at the Indigenous Games!

Are you a Nisga'a citizen that has qualified and will be participating in the Indigenous games?  If so, NLG is doing a 'call out' to all Nisga'a athletes that will be participating in the games so we may feature you on our website.
