Kulasihkulpon!
Welcome to Welamukotuk First Nation, a proud Wolastoqey community located along the beautiful Wolastoq river in Oromocto, New Brunswick.
Surrounded by the strength of our people and the richness of our culture, Welamukotuk is a place where tradition and community spirit guide us forward.
Welcome to our new and improved community website!
We are proud to launch our new community website! A central place to connect, learn, and stay informed. This site is designed to make it easier for our members and partners to access information about our services, programs, and initiatives.
- Departments & Services – Learn about the programs and supports available in our community.
- Staff Directory – Connect with the people working to serve and support Welamukotuk.
- News & Updates – Stay informed about important announcements, events, and community highlights.
Our goal is to keep you connected with the work we are doing together to strengthen our community, support our families, and build a strong future for generations to come.
Revenue Sharing Agreement Signing
On September 25, at the Delta in Fredericton, the six Chiefs of the Wolastoqey Nation stood in unity with Premier Holt and Minister Chiasson to sign foundational revenue sharing agreements. These are similar to our previous tax agreements and will allow us to keep a large share of the taxes collected at our band businesses instead of remitting it back to the CRA.

We extend our sincere congratulations to each of the successful applicants. These new homes represent an important step in addressing the housing needs of our community and reflect our continued commitment to supporting the well-being of our members.
Chief and Council also recognize that the housing shortage in our community is a serious crisis that impacts many families. We ask for your patience and understanding as we continue our efforts. Please know that housing remains a top priority, and we are actively working to close the gap and ensure more members have access to safe and secure homes.
On behalf of Chief and Council, we thank you for your continued support and trust as we move forward together.
