Louis Bull Tribe

Members of the Samson Cree Nation in Muscogee are casting their vote right up until the doors are locked.

Louis Bull, who ran out of that ballots, had to send their people here.

We have had to send ask for additional ballots.

So we've had an additional 600 ballots bought to us and originally I think they gave us 3,500.

I recently went to Muskegese, which is actually four Cree communities: Samson, Louis Bull, Montana, and Ermineskin.

This was a site of a 2022 visit by Pope Francis.

He apologized for the Catholic Church's role in residential schools, where children were forced to attend, punished for speaking their indigenous language, and sometimes died.
