Former national chief calls for investigation into potential federal interference

RoseAnne Archibald is calling for an independent investigation into potential government interference into the Assembly of First Nations a week after she was ousted as national chief.

Archibald was voted out last week during a special chiefs assembly that also dealt with a human resources investigation related to complaints AFN staff filed against her. 

In a Facebook video, Archibald alleges the investigation is a coverup for what is really happening within the First Nations advocacy organization.

She says the AFN has become a tool for the federal Liberal government and called for supporters to write to Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre and NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh to ask for an investigation into interference.
