Katie Rich is stepping down as chief of Davis Inlet.

After 10 months of struggling with media and government to try and help her people, Rich says she is worn out and depressed. Things in the isolated village have not improved much. Ottawa won't let them move to the site of their choice, the kids are still killing themselves and the people are still facing a bleak future.

It may be a long time before the trial of the group of Native protesters in Labrador gets underway.

Language barriers, hunting seasons and civil disobedience stand to make the trial of 42 Innu charged with mischief drag on for some time, Innu Nation spokesman Daniel Ashini said.

The Innu from Sheshatsui appeared in court Oct. 26 to enter their plea on charges of mischief but refused to enter any plea or identify themselves, Ashini said.

"People didn't identify themselves and nobody was there to enter a plea for them."
