Pimicikamak Cree Sue Over Deadly Power Outage | Winnipeg News
Description
Four thousand residents of the Pimicikamak Cree Nation were left without power for days in the brutal winter, forcing evacuations and causing catastrophic damage to homes and infrastructure. Now, the community is suing Manitoba Hydro and both levels of government, claiming they ignored long-standing warnings about power vulnerabilities and mishandled the outage — even allegedly misdirecting crews and misleading the public. The tribe is demanding compensation and a guaranteed backup power system, with no official response yet from the defendants.
