Prince Rupert City Councillor Reid Skelton-Morven is one of five candidates vying for the position of Chief Councillor for the Metlakatla First Nation.
He joins Randall Cobb, Robert Nelson, Braden Etzerza, and Darci Nelson on the ballot for the top spot in September’s election.
Incumbent Chief Councillor Harold Leighton will not be running for re-election after filling the role for over three decades.
Cobb nearly took the role from the long-time Chief Councillor in the 2019 election, which Leighton ultimately won 157-133.
Three on-reserve and three off-reserve councillors will also be elected when Band members hit the polls on September 29th.
