The chief of Shawanaga First Nation says it is community co-operation that has kept COVID-19 off its territory.
Chief Wayne Pamajewon said they have had no reported cases of the coronavirus in the local community since the global pandemic began some eight months ago. He added, however, that a member of the First Nation who lives in the U.S. did contract COVID but she has since recovered.
He said there are currently about 220 residents living in the community, while almost 500 more live outside the territory,
