In Quarantine without food, running water, heat, or electricity
Darlene Necan on Covid-19 in Ojibway Nation of Saugeen #258.
Covid-19 is spreading through Indigenous communities in Northern Ontario and intensifying the already existing dynamics of poverty and oppression. In this interview, Darlene Necan speaks about the effects of Covid-19 in Ojibway Nation of Saugeen #258 and the abandonment of the people by Chief and Council.
Although without symptoms, Darlene and her brother have been diagnosed with Covid-19 and are being required to confine themselves in a plywood shack for two weeks without running water, electricity, or an adequate supply of food and firewood.
