Bottled water, plumbing supplies and food continue to be flown in to a beleaguered First Nation in northern Manitoba, as its chief met Wednesday with political leaders to survey extensive damage to the community after a days-long power outage. 

Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew, federal Minister of Northern and Arctic Affairs Rebecca Chartrand and Assembly of First Nations National Chief Cindy Woodhouse Nepinak are among a delegation touring Pimicikamak Cree Nation.
