‘Do something!’ First Nations leaders demand change in wake of infant’s death
An example of blatant discrimination and systemic racism.
Those were just some of the terms expressed by the Chief of the Federation of Sovereign Indigenous Nations (FSIN) Tuesday following the death of a 13-month-old boy in Prince Albert last month.
Chief Bobby Cameron and executives with the FSIN and the Prince Albert Grand Council (PAGC) held a press conference to demand change in the justice system and the local police force.
On February 10, Prince Albert police were called to the home in the West Hill area around 5:44 a.m. for a complaint of a family dispute. Officers took one person into custody.
