This week on APTN News InFocus, guest host Jesse Andrushko speaks with Ottawa correspondent Karyn Pugliese about what came out of the Assembly of First Nations Annual General Assembly in Winnipeg.

National Chief Cindy Woodhouse Nepinak opened the gathering with concerns about the One Canadian Economy Act, the law Ottawa says will fast-track projects in the national interest. Chiefs also debated child welfare, with Chief Pauline Frost speaking on behalf of the National Children's Chiefs' Commission. And Chief Mark Arcand shared a personal story during discussions on the opioid crisis.

Karyn breaks down what happened at the meeting and whether chiefs are any clearer on how to respond to Ottawa.
