Charity Sends Gifts to Attawapiskat, Kashechewan

Canadian Tire Jumpstart donated 600 pairs of footwear, 550 pieces of outerwear, 300 flashlights, and other gifts that will be shipped almost 700 kilometres to the affected areas.

Aboriginal Affairs Minister John Duncan met with Attawapiskat Chief Theresa Spence last week in Thunder Bay in an effort to come up with a plan to deal with the community’s myriad of problems, including a housing crisis.
