The Sayisi Dene people of Tadoule Lake in northern Manitoba are a people with a nomadic history of following and hunting the caribou. In 1956, the federal government forced them to give up their ways and move to Churchill, Manitoba. What followed was many years of hardship, more re-location, and eventually a return to their homeland.
