A former MKO Grand Chief is taking another go at becoming the next leader of the Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs.

Sheila North, a broadcast journalist from Bunibonibee Cree Nation, previously ran for Grand Chief last year, but lost to then incumbent Arlen Dumas.

Dumas has since been voted out as Grand Chief by the AMC following sexual misconduct allegations.

The Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs byelection is taking place next month.
