Rock the Indigenous Vote movement

Assembly of First Nations British Columbia Regional Chief Shane Gottfriedson signs the banner Rock the Indigenous Vote as First Nations representatives gathered at the River Cree on Enoch Cree Nation this morning to strategize about getting out the Indigenous vote. An AFN report indicates there are 51 ridings across the country that Indigenous voters can make a difference in. “This is about mobilizing the people to vote,” said Gottfriedson, who is organizing the movement. “We’ve been working hard and rallying hard … and putting out a lot of awareness campaigns at the grassroots level.” (Photo: Shari Narine)
