Board Member / Membres du CA

Job Description: Secretary Trustee for the Mercury Care Home Trust 
May 29, 2025 
 
Organization: Grassy Narrows First Nation - Mercury Care Home Trust 
Location: Remote/Hybrid (with occasional travel to Grassy Narrows, Ontario) 
Board Term: Minimum 3 years (renewable) 
Time Commitment: Part-time, variable hours (estimated up to 20 hrs/week initially) 
Compensation: Hourly, market-rate (contractor role) 
 
Grassy Narrows/Asubpeeschoseewagong Anishinabek (“ANA”) First Nation is selecting a 
part-time Secretary Trustee for the Mercury Care Home Trust (the “Trust”), which will 
provide funding for the Grassy Narrows Mercury Care Home and Treatment Centre (the 
“Home”). The Secretary Trustee is a voting member of the Trust with fiduciary duties, 
responsible for supporting governance, financial oversight, and ensuring transparency. In 
addition to fulfilling secretarial roles, the Secretary Trustee helps make key decisions, 
resolve conflicts, and must have independence and expertise in trust management or 
other applicable expertise. 
 
The Home will be a specialized facility on reserve that will provide care and treatment 
for those community members who are or may be suffering from the effects of 
methylmercury poisoning. The facility will include 22 in-patient beds as well as treatment 
spaces for out-patients. It is anticipated that the facility will open in 2027. 
 
ANA is currently in the construction and planning phase of the Mercury Care Home pursuant 
to a Framework Agreement with Indigenous Services Canada (“ISC”). ANA and ISC have 
also negotiated a Contribution Agreement which provides for the Trust to hold the upfront 
funding for the services, operations, maintenance, and related costs of approximately $69 
million. 
 
The Trust is expected to be fully established by September 22 of 2025. ANA Chief and 
Council are in the process of selecting the initial Trustees – four Community Trustees and 
the Secretary Trustee who will not be from the community. 

 
Background of the Grassy Narrows Mercury Care Home 
 
Grassy Narrows First Nation is located in Northwestern Ontario, approximately 90 
kilometres from Kenora, Ontario via Provincial Highway 671. The community is accessible 
year-round via Provincial Highway 671. The principal languages spoken are 
Anishinabemowin (Ojibwe) and English. Grassy Narrows First Nation has a registered 
population of approximately 1,600 (1,000 reside on reserve). 

 
Between 1962 and 1975, the Reed Paper Mill released 10 tonnes of mercury- 
contaminated effluent into the English-Wabigoon River. This resulted in environmental 
pollution and the contamination of fish within the river system, a major food source for 
Grassy Narrows First Nation, which poisoned the people of Grassy Narrows. The effects 
of mercury contamination are still being felt in the community today. Given the ongoing 


-2- 
 

4834-4802-6595, v. 1 

impacts of mercury poisoning, the Home is expected to provide services to the community 
for at least 30 years. As a result, the Trust is expected to last at least 30 years. 

Responsibilities of the Secretary Trustee 
 
The Secretary Trustee is a new role which will be responsible for typical board secretary 
functions as well as sitting as a Trustee. Given the specific purpose of the Trust, there are 
additional responsibilities in terms of supporting compliance with the Trust Deed, 
establishing and adhering to practices and procedures, training of the Community Trustees 
and facilitating reporting on the Trust’s activities and other communications. 
 
The Secretary Trustee will also oversee the budget and many administrative needs of the 
Trust itself, and if the Community Trustees should be unable to act, the Secretary Trustee 
will be able and required to take steps to protect the Trust property. 
 
The Secretary Trustee is primarily responsible to the Trust which is independent from ANA. 
Chief and Council have the authority to dismiss the Secretary Trustee in limited 
circumstances. 
 
Key responsibilities will include carrying out the following: 

 
Setting up Trust Education, Practices and Procedures 

 • Developing and implementing a trustee orientation, initial education and continuing

 • Overseeing the development and implementation of essential polices, practices 
and procedures, including the confirmation of said policies, etc with Chief and 
Council as required in the Trust Deed. 


Management and Administration of the Trust 
 

 • Setting up and managing facilities, software and staffing as necessary for the 
operation of the Trust. This will involve facilitating decisions as to the nature of the 
“office” for the Trust. The “office” may be virtual. 

 • Preparing an annual budget for Trust operations, and associated reporting. 

 • Chairing meetings and facilitating minute-taking. 

 • Setting up and managing the proper long term and secure maintenance of all Trust 
records. 

 • Fostering a collegial, respectful small staff team and Board of Trustees, and a 
positive work environment. 

 • Supporting the development of agreements with any required external service 
providers. 

 • Co-ordinating the annual reporting process.
