The Emergency in Attawapiskat. February 2012 [videorecording] / Canadian Broadcasting Corporation

Summary:

In late October 2012, the First Nations community of Attawapiskat declared a state of emergency. Many residents of the isolated reserve in Northern Ontario were living in tents, trailers and temporary shelters, even as winter closed in on them. In this News in Review story we look at the desperate state of that community and why it needs help so badly.
