Jul 31, 2024

Chief calls on federal and provincial government for urgent help.

At the Dakota Tipi First Nation band office, nine eviction notices are sprawled out on a boardroom table.

Each notice is addressed to a band member accused of using or selling drugs.

They’ll be given 24 hours to leave their dwelling before the RCMP force them out.

The band council says it’s a last resort after doing everything it can to combat the drug crisis.
