The federal government is carrying through on a promise to provide new schools for first nation communities.
Aboriginal Affairs Minister John Duncan was on the Fort Severn First Nation yesterday to announce the construction of a new elementary school.
He says this is the first announcement from their 175 million dollar pledge in the spring budget.
Today Duncan has a meeting scheduled with the new leadership of Grand Council Treaty Three and then will fly to the Pikangikum First Nation for another announcement.
