One of our ILSA members is with the Saugeen Ojibwe Nation this week, learning all about FPIC and the Duty to Consult from the Indigenous lense. Anyone else at the conference? #FPIC #DutyToConsult @FPIC_Conference

Abraham Donkey was 58 yrs old – 10 days after heart surgery he was asked to go 900km from his community for a follow up. Indigenous Services refused to send him by plane or with an escort.
That night, Abraham died on the bus.
