Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs Grand Chief Arlen Dumas is seen in Ottawa, in a Dec. 7, 2017, file photo.A COVID-19 outbreak at a fly-in reserve in Manitoba and increasing infections in First Nations populations in the province has leaders worried.The First Nations population in Manitoba was largely spared of infections earlier this year during the first wave of COVID-19, as leaders imposed travel restrictions and lockdowns.But Dumas said the initial success “allowed for a bit of apathy to creep in.
Federal Minister of Indigenous Services Marc Miller warned last week that with a rise in outbreaks across Canada that the second wave of COVID-19 would hit Indigenous communities harder. Soon after, teams were also sent to Little Grand Rapids First Nation, where 38 members have so far tested positive.Dumas said the community of about 1,300, located about 260 km northeast of Winnipeg near the Ontario border, faces a lot of challenges in responding to the outbreak.
I thought this was Trudeau dressing up a little early
Nothing racist about that picture...
That photo is YEARS old.
Canada needs to stop mistreating its indigenous people. Enough is enough
Thought for a second that was Trudeau pandering again.
