February 2012- Sled Dogs are seen before a race during the Winter Carnival in Fort Chipewyan, a First Nation community north of Fort McKay on lake Althabasca that is dealing with many downstream pollution issues from the Oil Sands. Both communities are very closely related, “Chip” is often refereed to as “Gods Country” and when the winter roads open it serves as a common weekend getaway for members of Fort McKay.
