The chief of the Fort William First Nation calls the first confirmed COVID-19 case in Thunder Bay “a very scary moment” for the city and his community.
Peter Collins is concerned about the virus getting into the neighbouring First Nation
“It’s a very scary moment for the whole city of Thunder Bay and our community in its entirety because you know how it spreads from one to another and eventually it will grow and grow,” explains Collins.
The First Nation chief says the community will be putting security in place but exactly how that is going to happen still has to be determined adding, “all of the folks that have a business, have jobs here, and work here will be allowed to enter but there are still details” which need to be worked out.
