Our guest on this episode of Face to Face are Breanne Lavallee-Heckert and Seraph-Eden Carr.

They are part of Red River Echoes - a collective of Metis in Manitoba and beyond who are raising concerns over a series of statements and actions by the leadership of the Manitoba Metis Federation.

The collective first spoke out after the MMF took out a full page advertisement in a Winnipeg newspaper expressing solidarity with the city’s police service.
