Pasqua First Nation is moving ahead with plans to banish drug dealers from the Fort Qu’Appelle-area reserve.
The chief and council recently passed a resolution to exclude any band members who are involved in drug activity.
Now they’re meeting with lawyers to see how it can be put into practice.
While banishment was once a form of traditional justice, implementing it now comes with challenges.
A drug bust last summer prompted the idea.
