‘Our people are tired': First Nations leaders call on province to ‘open up hotels' and suspend conferences to prioritize evacuees

A wildfire near Sherridon, Man. is seen on May 28, 2025. (Michelle Reimer) First Nations leaders in Manitoba gathered Saturday afternoon to call on the province to provide a directive to hotels prioritizing wildfire evacuees in Winnipeg hotels. Leadership from Assembly of First Nations (AFN), Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs (AMC), Manitoba Keewatinowi Okimakanak (MKO) and some of the affected First Nations urged the premier to suspend conferences that are taking up space much needed for evacuees arriving to the city. 'It is really sad to see our children have to sleep on floors, waiting in hallways, waiting outside,' said AMC Grand Chief Kyra Wilson. 'We need to make sure we have space for our people.' MKO Grand Chief Garrison Settee said the reception of people into Winnipeg is 'not a good experience.' 'If you were to see what is happening you would be appalled as Manitobans.' he said, 'This is a matter of basic human dignity when our people arrive here they are not afforded that basic human dignity.' Kelly Linklater, a councillor with Mathias Columb First Nation said the nation is 'halfway' evacuated with community members being flown out all day and continuing over the next couple of days. 'It would be good to move quicker,' he said, 'There is anxiety because of the kids, the Elders, and of course, the pending changing of the wind.' Leaders spoke of how families are spread out across the province and even out of the province. Linklater said there is a possibility 800 of their members may be flown to Niagara Falls, ON. 'We need to come together and make space for our people.' said Grand Chief Wilson, 'Our people are tired. Our leadership is tired.' CTV News reached out to the provincial government for comment.

Springer hits two homers as Blue Jays top Athletics but lose Varsho to leg injury

Blue Jays designated hitter George Springer (4) runs the bases after hitting a solo home run against the Athletics in third inning MLB action in Toronto on Saturday, May 31, 2025. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Jon Blacker TORONTO — George Springer hit two of Toronto's four home runs in an 8-7 victory over the Athletics on Saturday afternoon at Rogers Centre. The designated hitter had a solo shot in the third inning off right-hander Gunnar Hoglund and added another in the fifth. Addison Barger hit a two-run blast in Toronto's four-run first inning and Bo Bichette added a solo shot in the second to help the Blue Jays (30-28) win their fourth game in a row. Toronto closer Jeff Hoffman gave up a two-run homer to Brent Rooker in the ninth inning before nailing down his 13th save. With a runner in scoring position, second baseman Ernie Clement made a diving catch to preserve the win. Nathan Lukes had two RBIs for Toronto and Clement chipped in with two hits and a run. Blue Jays centre-fielder Daulton Varsho left the game in the third inning due to left hamstring discomfort. Tyler Soderstrom hit a three-run homer off Toronto opener Braydon Fisher in the first inning and Canadian Denzel Clarke added a two-run shot in the second. The Blue Jays extended their home winning streak to six games and have won eight of their last 12 games overall. Toronto has scored 31 runs over the first three games of the four-game series. The Athletics (23-36) have dropped five in a row, 16 of their last 17, and 10 straight road games. Clarke, a Toronto native, knocked Fisher out of the game with his first career homer. Easton Lucas came on in relief and threw 4 2/3 shutout innings. Announced attendance was 38,017 and the game took two hours 36 minutes to play. VLAD STREAK Blue Jays slugger Vladimir Guerrero Jr. singled in the first inning to extend his career-high on-base streak to 31 games. It's the longest active streak in the major leagues. ROSTER MOVES The Blue Jays recalled Lucas from Triple-A Buffalo before the game and designated right-hander Jose Urena for assignment. CRICKET DAY Members of the Canadian cricket team were on hand at Rogers Centre for the third annual Cricket Day at the Park. COMING UP Right-hander Kevin Gausman (5-4, 3.68) was scheduled to start for the Blue Jays on Sunday. The Athletics will send left-hander JP Sears (4-5, 5.18) to the mound. Article by Gregory Strong.
