Innu History Exhibit Cancelled Over Timeline Dispute

A major Indigenous exhibit titled Innu Pakassiun, designed to honor thousands of years of Innu history and culture in Labrador, was abruptly canceled days before opening — sparking outrage over the province’s insistence that Innu history only dates back 300 years. Cultural leaders say the cancellation is painful but necessary, rejecting the need to constantly prove their heritage. The Innu Nation calls the provincial stance an erasure, while The Rooms and provincial government remain silent on the escalating dispute over historical truth and Indigenous sovereignty.
