Ontario Premier Doug Ford met with First Nations chiefs from across the province Thursday, to apologize for comments he made at an event in St. Catharines.
Ford faced the anger of Ontario’s First Nations at Queen’s Park, after being accused of using “racist rhetoric” Wednesday at an event in Niagara.
The premier had accused First Nations people of repeatedly going to the government “hat in hand” and not being able to take care of themselves.
Talks at Queen’s Park Thursday ended with handshakes and Ford’s apology.
“Grand Chief, I want to repeat it again,” said Ford. “I sincerely apologize if I’ve offended anyone.”
It followed a meeting that started with First Nations chiefs looking grim, as they arrived to see the premier.
Around 40 chiefs from Anishinabek Nation were previously scheduled to meet with the premier, but the meeting was overshadowed by Ford’s statements made Wednesday.
