The James Smith Cree Nation has a familiar face returning to the helm.

 

On Friday, Wally Burns was re-elected chief in the band’s general election.

 

He defeated four challengers to win another two-year term.

 

Four band councillors were also elected out of a pool of 16 candidates — Gerald McKay, Justin Burns, Malcolm Constant and incumbent Robin Moostoos.
