Raymond Robinson of Cross Lake First Nation is into his third day of a hunger strike.

Robinson also says he won’t drink any water during the protest. He travelled to Montreal this week to raise awareness about why he has embarked on a second hunger strike this year.

Robinson is scheduled to meet with Aboriginal Affairs Minister Bernard Valcourt on Friday at about 2:30 p.m.
