B.C. Group Supporting Attawapiskat First Nation

First Nations chiefs in B-C are rallying behind the troubled Northern Ontario reserve of Attawapiskat.
The Union of B-C Indian Chiefs is urging band councils across the country to raise funds for humanitarian assistance on the reserve.
The Harper Government took control of public funds away from Attawapiskat last week over concerns about health, safety and financial mismanagement.
The community is struggling with a housing shortage that’s left families living in squalor.
The Union says the Feds are playing,“a game of political deflection.”
