Innu Nation backs out of Round table meetings with Premier Andrew Furey

The Innu Nation has backed out of round table meetings with Premier Andrew Furey.

Innu Nation grand chief Simon Pokue spoke with Labrador morning show to explain why they are backing out.

Pokue says that, along with ITK and Nunatsiavut government they do not recognize NunatuKavut Community Council as an indigenous group, and do not want to sit and meet with them anymore.

Pokue also said that MP Yvonne Jones and Minister Lisa Dempster are members of NCC, and that Minister Dempster does nothing to further the issues that concern us.

We will have more information once it becomes available.
