SASKATOON A woman is concerned about the living conditions of her 69-year-old mother, Betsy Bird, and the four foster children she s taking care of on Big River First Nation. Meagan Vivian says two years ago her mother’s house became overrun with bedbugs and cockroaches. She says Big River First Nation councillors fumigated the and promised $1,500 towards renovations. Bird’s family began renovating the house themselves, tearing out drywall and insulation, with the expectation the money would be used for repairs. “And then there was an election, new membership came in, and for some reason, it was ignored,” said Vivian, who claims the plumbing in the house no longer works. “My mom cannot live in that house like that any longer, especially with kids in care.”
