First Nation Protest

A dispute over the band's operation of the community's school is at the heart of a dispute in Whitefish Bay First Nation, east of Sioux Narrows.

Some band members began a protest at the school Thursday.

They're upset with band council take over of the education authority which lead to the subsequent firing the board and its education director.

The school principal and several teachers also recently quit.
