Manto Sipi First Nation, a designated dry reserve, is now enforcing its ban against bringing in any alcohol into the community, and safety officers will begin searching bags.

If you’re travelling to Manto Sipi Cree Nation in northern Manitoba, your luggage might get searched for alcohol at the airport.

In a statement Monday, MKO applauded the move and called it an important step in stemming the “epidemic of bootlegging and drug-dealing” that is affecting First Nations.
