The Federation of Sovereign Indigenous Nations is using charges in Flin Flon against two women for uttering threats and public incitement of hatred as an example of what the executive would like to see in Saskatchewan.
Life threatening messages against First Nations people were posted on Facebook.
FSIN Chief Bobby Cameron says this is what he would like to see more of from the RCMP.
He says following the Gerald Stanley verdict earlier this year, the FSIN Special Investigations Unit were forwarded numerous threatening and racist messages from concerned members of the public.
They have been provided to the RCMP for further investigation although charges against any individuals for alleged hate speech have yet to be confirmed.
