“Just let us be. We know we’re breaking these bylaws, but who are we hurting?” asked Durocher.
Christopher Merasty from Flying Dust First Nation also walked from the North with Durocher, raising awareness around the suicide epidemic plaguing northern Indigenous communities and the province at large.

“We need the provincial government to open their doors and let us in to speak.”
Durocher said Minister for Rural and Remote Health Warren Kaeding had expressed interest in speaking one-on-one. Durocher said he wanted to have more people from affected communities at the table with the minister.
Few police were seen around the park throughout the morning, but Durocher and and Merasty expect they’ll be back.
