First Nation demands Carney apology amid 60-year mercury crisis

June 23, 2026

Grassy Narrows First Nation is demanding an apology from Prime Minister Mark Carney, and for a paper mill linked to mercury contamination to be closed. Protesters say the Dryden paper mill, which dumped about nine tonnes of mercury into the English-Wabigoon River System in the 1960s and '70s, continues to pollute their community's water system.
