The Assembly of First Nations (AFN) is holding its 30th Annual General Assembly and election of National Chief in Calgary, Alberta and APTN will be there to deliver daily coverage of the assembly and the complete election results.
On July 21 to 23, 2009, APTN National News will air special coverage of the election proceedings during its regular news slot at 6 pm ET on APTN East and APTNHD / 6 pm MT on APTN West / 6 pm CT on APTN North. Live hits will be featured throughout each day to keep viewers informed as the ballot results come in. APTN National News will continue its special coverage until a winner is declared.
“APTN is dedicated to keeping viewers informed of important events that affect our communities, such as the AFN Election,” said Sky Bridges, APTN Director of Marketing. “Aboriginal Peoples across this country should have access to these historic moments which directly affect our First Nations brothers and sisters.”
The Assembly of First Nations (AFN) is the national organization representing approximately 700,000 First Nations citizens in Canada from 633 First Nations communities in both rural and urban areas.
APTN National News was first launched in April of 2000 with nine bureaus across the country and has recently revamped its format to provide a more in-depth look at the issues facing Aboriginal communities in Canada and around the world. APTN National News is news that not only informs, but inspires.
