Indigenous mom of 2 says racist taunts aimed at her family during kids' 1st trip to Winnipeg

An Indigenous mother who brought her family to Winnipeg for the first time says she now has to have a difficult conversation with her kids after they were mocked, repeatedly taunted and had spitballs thrown at them during an ice show on Saturday.

"I'm going to have to explain to them like there are some people out there that don't like Aboriginals and there are some that do," said Mandy Colomb, who made the nearly 700-kilometre trek from Pukatawagan, Man., to Winnipeg for a Disney on Ice show at Bell MTS Place Saturday.
