An election ad printed by local Libertarian party candidate Tamara Johnson in a Thunder Bay newspaper has sparked outrage from numerous First Nations leaders and groups who deem the contents of the ad to be racist.
The full-page colour ad, published in the June 10 edition of the Chronicle Journal by Johnson, featured statements such as “no group of people are ‘entitled’ to handouts,” “Crown lands are public lands. Not native lands,” and “help me stop the ‘gravy train.’”
