Indigenous Services minister questions union statement on Jocelyn Ottawa allegations

Indigenous Affairs Minister Marc Miller questioned the nurse’s union, Fédération interprofessionnelle de la santé du Québec (FIQ), over their statement regarding the allegations from Jocelyn Ottawa against the nurses who were tasked with treating her. Ottawa claimed she was asked to sing in Atikamekw. Miller said the union’s claim that it was a “misunderstanding” did not “make sense.”
