WEHWEHNEH BAHGAHKINAHGOHN BUILDING TURNS 99 YEARS OLD

The former Hudson’s Bay Company building in downtown Winnipeg officially opened 99 years ago, on November 18, 1926!

Nearly a century later, the Southern Chiefs’ Organization is proudly transforming this building into Wehwehneh Bahgahkinahgohn—a place that reflects who we are, what we have overcome, and the future we are building for our 32 member Nations.

A site that once symbolized colonialism is now being reclaimed by:

• A 77 per cent Indigenous workforce
• A major redevelopment led by First Nations vision
• A new purpose grounded in community, culture, and economic reconciliation

On this anniversary, SCO acknowledges the history of this building and celebrates the new path our Nations are carving forward.

From colonial legacy to First Nations leadership, Wehwehneh Bahgahkinahgohn is rewriting the story of this landmark.
