A rally was held Monday afternoon at the Manitoba Legislative Building in support of members of an Ontario First Nation.
Representatives of Shoal Lake First Nation met with Winnipeg Mayor Brian Bowman and provincial Jobs Minister Kevin Chief.
Shoal Lake is the source of Winnipeg’s drinking water, but the First Nation has been on a boil water advisory for more than 15 years.
Shoal Lake officials called for clean water for the reserve and an all-weather road.
The province said a new road could cost $25 million.
