A northern Manitoba First Nation held a protest Wednesday night by the VIA Rail tracks in the community over complaints of priority treatment being given to tourists.
“We had a protest when the train came into the community [last night] to let them know that if we’re going to be treated in this way, there will be a blockade and we’re pretty serious about that,” said War Lake First Nation Chief Betsy Kennedy.
