'Abysmal' policy: Saskatchewan, Alberta seek First Nations support in fight with Ottawa

CALGARY – Alberta and Saskatchewan blasted the federal government over energy policy at a First Nations event Monday, urging Indigenous communities to fight against what they called Ottawa’s “abysmal” policy.

“Energy is a national unity issue,” Eyre said in the speech that touched on issues of Western alienation, natural resource development, federal energy policy and First Nations communities developing their own natural resources. The event was hosted for First Nations chiefs to discuss economic development through natural resources projects and included Indigenous groups from Manitoba to British Columbia.

While there were some objections, much of the crowd in attendance for the conference said they supported the message.
