An emergency meeting will be held for First Nations chiefs from across the country, next week.
The major topic of the meeting will be the viability of the Assembly of First Nations, whose divisions were surprised by the resignation of leader Shawn Atleo.
The meeting will take place in Ottawa on May 27.
One of the people reportedly interested in the national chief's job is Wab Kinew from the Onigaming First Nation, but currently works in Winnipeg.
