Peaceful Protest

Members of the Attawapiskat First Nation will be protesting in front of the De Beers Canada office in Toronto this morning.

The first nation wants the wealth generated by diamond exploration in their lands should be equally split between the business and community.

Attawapiskat First Nation is a remote commuity on the west coast of James Bay with a population of one thousand eight hundred.
