PRINCE ALBERT A shuttered hotel in downtown Prince Albert has re-opened as affordable housing for students and people travelling for medical care. The Cumberland Crossing Inn is owned by a Cumberland House Cree Nation company, Saskatchewan River Business Corporation, and Timanaska Development Corporation.

Chief Rene Chaboyer said the project will provide economic stability for Cumberland House Cree Nation. “We’re trying to push the envelope and be a trend-setting First Nation that can model (for) other nations,” he said. ”Do things that other nations didn’t think that they could ever do.
