Winnipeg students call on government to 'Have a Heart' for First Nations issues

Winnipeg students call on government to 'Have a Heart' for First Nations issues Lenard Monkman © Walther Bernal/CBC Grade 2 students at Chancellor School in Winnipeg hold up the letters they will be sending to Liberal MP Terry Duguid. The letters urge politicians to advocate for equity for First Nations youth. Elementary students in a Winnipeg school division are learning about Jordan's Principle and First Nations equity as part of a cross-Canada reconciliation event known as Have a Heart Day. Under Jordan's Principle, the needs of a First Nations child requiring a government service take precedence over jurisdictional issues around which level of government pays for it.
