A federal member of parliament representing northern Manitoba is calling for the military to be sent in to help First Nations with surging COVID-19 case numbers.
NDP MP Niki Ashton is calling on the federal government to respond to First Nations calls for military support to contain the rapid spread of COVID-19 in northern and isolated communities. Ashton says workers in the communities are getting sick and isolating, but there are no replacements for them.
