The Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs isn't commenting on a proposal for a casino in Brandon, Manitoba.

The AMC must agree to a First Nation casino, Manitoba Premier Greg Selinger noted. "That's the only way to do it," he said, The Brandon Sun reported.

Brandon Mayor Shari Decter Hirst said the city will partner with the Tribal Councils Investment Group, a First Nations-owned entity, to build the casino.
