Trudeau becomes first sitting PM to visit northern Ontario reserve

In what was the first visit by a sitting prime minister to a fly-in community in Ontario's north, Justin Trudeau asked young people on the impoverished First Nation of Pikangikum to have hope while pledging more federal supports.

Trudeau flew into Pikangikum, Ontario some 500 kilometres northwest of Thunder Bay, on Friday to meet with the community's leadership and see, first hand, the conditions on the ground.
