From the beginning, the CI agreement doesn’t seem to prioritize Daunis or her Ojibwe community—it prioritizes the investigation above all else. It’s unclear, for instance, if Daunis would perhaps get in trouble for learning to make meth, even with Ron’s blessing, since as far as she knows, doing so is illegal. Further, and most disturbingly for Daunis, it’s clear that the feds aren’t interested in respecting traditional medicines and Ojibwe culture. So, Daunis realizes that she and the feds are coming to this investigation with very different perspectives. As a member of the local Ojibwe community, Daunis cares about the investigation successfully getting rid of the meth that’s decimating her community. But she also knows that she must honor her roots and protect traditional knowledge, a heavy task.
