first nations exist.
probably the first thing white nattys will have to learn
========================================================================================================
POOR STUPID Hoid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOST AS USUAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A bunch of unemployed natives hanging out at a favoured drinking spot does not make a NATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hell`s Angels motorcycle club is not a Nation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Mafia is not a Nation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A bunch of natives living in the woods and dependent on white people for food, shelter and clothing plus medical care does not make a NATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Such an unemployed and too often drunken mob merely makes a political MESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And it is a MESS that our LIE-berals are ENCOURAGING by failing to take ANY STEPS TO halt the ENDEMIC CORRUPTION on reserves!!!!!!!!!!!!
LIE-berals consider that BUYING VOTES is far more important than protecting tax payers or ensuring honest govt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here is an article illustrating how little concern LIE-berals have for honest elections in Canada! And I guess it also explains why LIE-berals have so little interest in halting the endemic corruption on reserves as well! With some comments of my own in brackets):
`Widespread' vote buying on Key First Nation, judge says as he throws out 2016 election results.

'There is clear evidence of widespread and openly conducted vote buying activity,' said Judge Robert Barnes
Vote buying and other improprieties took place during and after the 2016 chief and council election on Key First Nation, says a federal court judge.
"The corrupt practices employed … appear to reflect a long-standing tradition and acceptance by some members of vote buying and other dishonest attempts to influence electoral outcomes," federal Judge Robert Barnes said in a written decision on Wednesday.
(No kidding! Natives have learned much from LIE-berals and civil service union Hogs about how to screw with the electoral process! Our Hogs and LIE-berals are engaged in a vast conflict of interest in which Hog votes are BOUGHT by gravy dispensing LIE-berals! Hogs get pay and pensions well beyond what ordinary Cdns get due to their unholy alliance with LIE-berals during elections!)
(In addition- Hogs employ the practice of “vouching” in which many anonymous strangers can vote at critical times- IF the Hogs say it is okay!)
He has ordered a new election for the west-central Saskatchewan reserve, which is near Norquay. He ruled to annul the October 2016 election on the politically tumultuous First Nation.
"There is clear evidence of widespread and openly conducted vote buying activity," Barnes wrote.
The allegations include passing money to voters, job offers and promises of work contracts.
(Gosh! Wynne-bag LIE-berals did the same thing in their Sudbury bribery scandal and walked away unscathed on a technicality! I guess natives still have some things to learn about bribery?)
Chief and 4 councillors responsible, judge says
Barnes said the election "was sufficiently corrupted by the misconduct" of elected chief Rodney Brass and councillors Glen O'Soup, Sidney Keshane and Angela Desjarlais.
Former chief Clarence Papequash, Clinton Key and Glenn Papequash launched the federal court challenge of the election against a large number of respondents, including the band itself.
Barnes rejected an appeal of the original court application, and pinpointed Brass, O'Soup, Keshane and Desjarlais as the driving force behind the "corrupt practices."
Judge chides failure to disclose information.
(All this native corruption is being fueled by LIE-beral indifference to endemic corruption on reserves! The Conservative requirement that band councils MUST post all their expenses online for auditors to see- has been killed by shameless LIE-berals who care much more about buying native votes than they do about honest govt!)
Barnes's ruling comes in the absence of evidence from respondents like Brass and the others on council. Barnes wrote that their failure to provide "long outstanding disclosure" in the case means they must now live with the results. He said evidence from those who witnessed the events went unchallenged.
Barnes noted credibility issues for Brass because he attempted to buy off the applicants by "offering each of them substantial sums of money in return for dubious offers of work" to stop them from proceeding with the federal case.
Long-standing issues with vote buying
In his ruling, Barnes stated the corrupt practices that took place during the election appear to reflect a tradition and acceptance on Key First Nation "by some members of vote buying and dishonest attempts to influence electoral outcomes."
"These practices appear to be sufficiently entrenched that, in the election to follow, rigorous efforts will be required to ensure the integrity of the process," Barnes wrote.
(Too bad LIE-berals are NOT the kind of people we can count on to provide those “rigorous efforts” to ensure election integrity!)
He also questioned the respondents for using the same legal counsel as the band.
(Oh! They all have the same lawyer? How does that slimy deal work? Unless the band and the respondents are in cahoots and cooperating to hide their slimy deals and wasteful habits from white people? As seems to be the case!)
"The Band should undoubtedly have been represented by separate, independent counsel whose sole mandate would be to advocate for the best interests of the First Nation and its members," Barnes wrote.
CBC has reached out to the parties involved in the court appeal as well as the Key First Nation and has not yet received comment.
(CBC has not heard back? And likely will not either- all this DIRT will be HIDDEN behind LIE-beral privacy laws that do more to aid sleazeballs than to ensure honest govt!)
