On Friday, Williams Lake Mayor Walt Cobb, shared a post on social media claiming there was another side to the Residential School tragedy.
Now, the Williams Lake First Nation is calling for his resignation.
Cobb shared a post authored by someone else claiming, among other things that young Indigenous people “want to be victims”.
He shared it with the caption saying to “look at every side of every situation”.
It’s not the first clash the Nation has had with City Council, after Councilor Marnie Brenner shared similar thoughts last year.
Nation Chief Willie Sellars called the situation disheartening, and says it’s time to open up leadership spots for more open-minded individuals.
