IMHO This is a must-listen episode of #AlbertaUnbound for all of us in #USA and #Canada and elsewhere. Our #FediFriend Senator Paula Simons (@Paulatics) speaks with Chief Conroy Sewepagaham of the Little Red River Cree Nation, a #FirstNations community that is struggling to rebuild after several wildfires. #cdnpoli #LittleRedRiver #Jasper #Canada #Cree https://mastodon.social/@Paulatics@mstdn.ca/114274832082218348

An essential episode of Alberta Unbound. Chief Conroy Sewepagaham of the Little Red River Cree Nation talks about the wildfires that devestated his community, and the lack of help they’ve received to rebuild. A powerful voice all Albertans and Canadians need to hear and heed. https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/alberta-unbound/id1511810939?i=1000702064761 #AlbertaUnbound #Alberta #wildfires #cdnpoli #SenateofCanada #LittleRedRiver #Jasper #Canada #Cree

Fox Lake, on the Little Red River Cree Nation, was devastated by wildfire last summer. Today, the entire reserve, which is home to some 5000 people, is under an evacuation order. Everyone must leave by 10 pm. I hope Chief Conroy Sewepagaham and his people will all reach safety - and that we find a real way to help the community rebuild for the future. #wildfires #LittleRedRiver #Alberta #FoxLake
