Manitoba native leader wants apology for ex-Tory youth president’s racial remark – Regina Leader-Post

WINNIPEG – A top Manitoba aboriginal leader has cancelled a meeting with the provincial Progressive Conservatives over a racist comment made by the former president of the party’s youth wing.

Grand Chief Derek Nepinak of the Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs is also demanding a full public apology to First Nations.

Braydon Mazurkiewich was ousted as Tory youth leader last week after posting what he admitted was a racist comment on his Facebook page.

He said he was upset about a planned urban reserve in Winnipeg on a former defence base designed for the “hard-working men and women of the military, not free-loading Indians.”
