The chief and council of Chippewas of the Thames First Nation have a strict message for people selling deadly drugs in their community — leave.
“Drugs will not be tolerated in our community. Those who supply the community with drugs … are going to be met with resistance,” said Chief Myeengun Henry in an emergency community meeting on Tuesday.
