The Aboriginal Sport and Wellness Council of Ontario (“ASWCO”) is very happy to have the opportunity to bring four teams (one men’s team and one women’s team from our province’s North and one men’s team and one women’s team from our province’s South) to the 2018 National Aboriginal Hockey Championships (“2018 NAHC”). In sanctioning these four teams, ASWCO will be adhering to the long established and accepted boundary of Wausaksing First Nation’s latitude 45.292 degrees as the demarcation between Ontario’s Northern and Southern regions.
