Rank Comix for July 2013

Treaty caravan led by AMC

Grand Chief Derek Nepinak of the Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs was joined by other Aboriginal leaders on a 10-day motorcycle tour of First Nations across the prairies on what was dubbed the Treaty Freedom Caravan and Ride. The tour, covering more than 4,000 km, was to raise awareness of treaty rights. It departed June 6 from Winnipeg’s Lower Fort Garry where Treaty 1 was signed in 1871. Each First Nation that is visited will then light a fire on June 21, which is National Aboriginal Day.
