"Does Joe Rogan own a boat?"

It has been 3 weeks of calls and emails from myself, my child's father, a friend who witnessed aggressive behaviour, Nunasiavut gov official, and the family friends and teachers writing in on behalf of my child. #MentalHealthMonday

Naig NS gave coaches full power without accountability for an Indigenous youth event and created a breeding ground for abusers. #naig2023

May 28th I emailed the Chief de Mission, Levi Denny, to ask for support for my child who was being mistreated /abused by coaches for her #anxiety and #adhd. I did not receive help and the coach kicked my child off the #naig team. 3 weeks later I'm still asking for help from #Naig

I found out from a parent that my child was blocked in a bathroom after being pulled in there by @TraceyjonesG during a panic attack. Parents said it looked so aggressive that they watched to make sure my kid was ok. The main coach @MEGACoachLezlie called me to blame my daughter.

I was told there is a discipline committee though I was not given contact info or any option for support. Terry Bernard, the executive director of Naig, was asked about how he was supporting us and he lied, saying we have a meeting. I have Never heard from this man.
