Nishnawbe Aski Nation Grand Chief Derek Fox insists he remains in the dark about why he’s been suspended, even after a group of chiefs have decided the suspension should continue.
The statement said Fox was being suspended while an internal investigation was conducted into alleged violations of the executive code of conduct.Fox had filed a lawsuit in January against Onigaming First Nation Chief Jeff Copenace, alleging comments Copenace made at the Assembly of First Nations special chiefs’ assembly in December were defamatory and damaging to his reputation. The lawsuit alleges Copenace's remarks accused Fox of being a woman abuser.
Fox said he first heard word of the Thursday meeting from a few chiefs, and then received an invite to attend from the two deputy grand chiefs earlier this week. He said the invite indicated he would be given an opportunity to address the chiefs in the afternoon. “To this day, I have no idea what’s going on. I know in my heart I’ve done nothing wrong. I stressed that to them – to no avail.”
