Chief Dale Steinhauer leads the charge, framing this as a moral and historical imperative — standing up for human rights where provincial governments fall short. By invoking Treaty 6’s “medicine chest” clause, they’re reclaiming jurisdiction over healthcare, bringing in qualified clinicians to offer safe, continuous care. This powerful move not only safeguards vulnerable Indigenous communities but sets a precedent for other First Nations across Canada, turning pain into power and healing into policy.
