Irwin Redsky handed a letter to prime minister Stephen Harper asking the
federal government to honor its historical agreement on Shoal Lake.
The letter is in response to the City of Winnipeg seeking an expedited
decision from the International Joint Commission about selling water
it draws from Shoal Lake.
Winnipeg is asking the federal government to support its request.
Chief Redsky accuses Winnipeg of doing a political end-around instead of
sitting down with the band to work out the dispute.
