I think we're all agreed something must be done. There are those who believe that it is our responsibility as white people to make up for the terrible crimes our ancestors have done. There are also those among us who believe that an individual is just that and that our responsibility ends at us not caring or giving billions of dollars in compensation.

The fact remains there is a problem, and people like to bitch about and offer no freakin solutions.


No, it's the government's responsibility to uphold it's end of treaty agreements.

Yup. I don't care to much for scams or the shmucks that fall for them so here I am providing reality to the masses.

and yet, here you are falling for and toeing the right wing line. Kudos.

That means squat. What is it then? A link please. I already posted the link for my figure......


You supplied a link to a news article that quoted Spences FAMILY'S income. Not her own salary for being Chief. My "family" income is a fu ck of a lot higher than my own pay as a field supervisor.

oh yes, and petros, supply the link to your pre fabs and I'll tear it apart.

When I was young boy in small anglo ecole, another boy push me down and take my brie and croissant to put in waste receptacle... I runs home crying to my grand pere and asks him why this anglo boy is so means to me.

Grand pere LeBlanc says that many anglos are still upset from history of French military skills... Stories of back in warring military days how French army defeats the Nazis and saves the anglo Island (Britain) from being occupied still hurts anglos and that is why they push me down and takes my petite dejunier.

Out of common animal curiosity captain, where do you read your history?:roll::roll:

I...I...I had no idea.

I'm sorry, but it's just so difficult to type through the tears. Such a sad, haunting story. You should write a screenplay, Denis Arcand could direct. You might get a Genie. Unfortunately you may have to fly to Toronto to pick it up.

Get this story out....it needs to be told.

Now you're not new, so there should be no excuse.

Right wing line?

This woman (pic taken 22 hours ago)


hasn't eaten anything since Dec 11? Really?

Compare photo taken 5 days ago.


I'd take her at her word, but her history with transparency makes me think that she might be conducting a hunger strike which includes pizza and timbits.

:roll:

You also want to jump on the "fatty" band wagon RCS? come on, let's here a few more "fat jokes".


Doctors have already reported on her health at this time, but why believe that when you can post pics and make cracks about weight.

I'm not making fat jokes, I'm making integrity jokes. It has been (according to her) 25 days since she ate. Based on how she blocked an independent audit into where the government money allotted to her community went based against the physical evidence I see calls her integrity into question.

What "physical evidence". Fu cking pictures? Do you have any idea what happens to the body when you are on a fast like she is, at the age she is? No, you have no fu cking idea. All you do is parrot the right wing line. No independent thought by someone that supposedly prides himself in independent thought.

If you are expecting a dramatic weight loss, you are going to be disappointed, because if that was the case, my wife would be twiggy right now.

Too many unanswered questions with this ordeal, from both the government and her band. Hard to make an informed opinion until she opens up her books which states where the money goes. Apparently she has an online trust fund set up that is managed exclusivity by her husband?

Regardless, that reserve is a mess and needs to be fixed.

Which are what? Babysit each person individually? Do the Govt fall short of funding and the "we want self-government and our own management" end of the bargain?

and yet, here you are falling for and toeing the right wing line. Kudos.
I'm not a fan of Spastics, but I am of responsible spending and management of Social funds. Who is doing the mismanagement?

oh yes, and petros, supply the link to your pre fabs and I'll tear it apart.

Knock yourself out. There are 36.000 prefabs to choose from. BTW It's $2500 to get a sea can from China to BC. The ship leaves every Saturday and takes 10 days.

Start tearing!

this thread isn't about any of that. It's about getting a meeting with the PM and GG for First Nations leaders. Something, it appears, her strike has achieved.
