Neskantaga First Nation marks the 10,000th consecutive day of being under a BWA.
“This is not something we are proud of by any means but it is real and happening today in our community. Acknowledging 10,000 days in BWA is impactful in so many ways…,” said Chief Wayne Moonias.

"Ontario wants access to our traditional territories, the treaty territories... we are partners, and they haven’t acknowledged, haven’t respected, haven’t honoured the treaties.” — @solmamakwa tells @MOHAWKEMOTIONS #onpoli #onelxn tvo.org/article/why-should-f…

This an overhead view of the flooding in #siouxlookout today. These water levels are unprecedented. The people of the north have always experienced the effects of climate change first.
Meegwetch to all helping out their neighbours during this stressful time.

Today @gcderekfox and I are in Sioux Lookout campaigning with our good friend @solmamakwa as he seeks re-election in the beautiful riding of Kiiwetinoong.
Good luck, Sol. You got this.

Today marks a year since the confirmation of Le Estcwicwéy̓ (The Missing 215+) at the site of the former Kamloops Indian Residential School.
This is the statement I made on May 31, 2021 in the Ontario Legislature.

On May 18th, I visited Pikangikum. Chief Owen told me their water levels rose 12 feet. The Northern Store is now on an island. Community members have to go shopping by boat for their essential supplies. There is no other way to get there /1

I saw groceries arrive at airport, then trucks have to take them to a pontoon boat to get to the store. They now need a larger barge to take a sewer and water truck across to the store.
Chief Owen said they had cold winter earlier and had lots of snowfall March and April /2

A lot of First Nations don’t feel as fortunate. We have 14 long term boil water advisories in #kiiwetinoong riding. Neskantaga, on its 28th yr.
We haven’t begun to search for our children in former Indian Residential Schools yet. Human rights are supposed to be for all of us.
Reading the news today, I'm feeling very fortunate to live in Canada - a diverse and tolerant country that values freedom while respecting human rights. We aren't perfect and building our country is an ongoing project but I wouldn't choose anywhere else. ❤️🇨🇦
