Ottawa tried to erase them, but Cree families emerging from shadows

APTN National News
The members of the Cree Nation of Washa Sibi say they have been victims of historical injustices.

In the 1950s, they were forced by Indian Affairs to relocate to Algonquin communities, now the families of the Washa Sibi want to reunite in their own hometown.

They want to establish the 10th Cree First Nation community in Quebec.
