Trudeau in Saskatchewan to exonerate Chief Poundmaker of treason

CUT KNIFE, Sask. — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is to visit a Saskatchewan First Nation today to exonerate a chief unjustly convicted of treason more than 130 years ago.
Trudeau is to vindicate Chief Poundmaker during a ceremony at the reserve that bears his name — Poundmaker Cree Nation — about 200 kilometres northwest of Saskatoon.
Members of the First Nation describe Poundmaker as an important political leader who spoke out against Treaty 6 and stood up for his people at the time of the 1885 Northwest Rebellion.
They say Poundmaker was inappropriately labelled a traitor even though he stopped First Nations fighters from going after retreating federal forces that had attacked them.
Poundmaker was tried for treason in Regina and imprisoned at Stony Mountain penitentiary in Manitoba before he was released because of poor health.
He died in 1886.
Milton Tootoosis is a headman and councillor at the reserve and believes the exoneration is a chance for Canadians to learn Poundmaker's true history.
"It’s about a great leader, a diplomat, a peacekeeper, who saved a lot of lives when he took action into his own hands," Tootoosis said.
The First Nation spent years trying to persuade the federal government to exonerate Poundmaker, he said.
Leaders thought it was a good time to raise the issue again when Ottawa announced its full support of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples and after the Truth and Reconciliation Commission issued its final report, said Tootoosis.
"Why not? The worst they can say is no. But if Canada is talking about truth, justice and reconciliation, maybe we give this another try."
While the exoneration will be important for the First Nation, Tootoosis said it still has grievances with the Crown over treaty implementation.
The federal government says it prioritizes reconciliation with Indigenous peoples and that Minister of Crown-Indigenous Relations, Carolyn Bennett, began working with the First Nation on its request last year.
"This is a major step in our ongoing joint work with the Poundmaker Cree Nation to address historic grievances and build a renewed relationship into the future based on mutual respect, co-operation, and partnership," said a statement from Bennett.
Last year, Trudeau apologized to the Tsilhqot’in community in British Columbia for the hanging of six chiefs more than 150 years ago and delivered a statement of exoneration in the House of Commons.

Oral history is profitable this should be good for a nice payout

'We recognize the truth:' Trudeau exonerates Cree chief of historic conviction

CUT KNIFE, Sask. — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says Canadians need to learn the real story of a prominent Saskatchewan chief who was a peacemaker, not a criminal.
Trudeau set the record straight Thursday by fully exonerating Chief Poundmaker of treason after the Cree leader's conviction 134 years ago.
"In 1885, Chief Poundmaker was treated as a criminal and a traitor. In 2019, we recognize the truth," Trudeau told a crowd gathered at Poundmaker Cree Nation, about 200 kilometres northwest of Saskatoon.
"Our government acknowledges that Chief Poundmaker was a peacemaker who never stopped fighting for peace. A leader who, time and time again, sought to prevent further loss of life in the growing conflict in the Prairies."
The ceremony took place at the site of the 1885 Battle of Cut Knife Hill, and where Poundmaker's remains were later buried.
Trudeau arrived at the outdoor ceremony in a horse-drawn wagon, with some Indigenous leaders on horses, to the sounds of drumming, singing and cheering.
Hundreds of people sat on the grass and a makeshift stage. The crowd included Indigenous war veterans, elders, chiefs and young people, as well as federal politicians.
After the exoneration, Trudeau placed a pouch of tobacco at the chief's grave as a sign of respect.
"It's exciting, yet emotional," said Roxanne Tootoosis, who was born and raised on the Poundmaker reserve. "It's something I didn't feel I would witness in my life."
Tootoosis said she was six years old in the late 1960s when Poundmaker's remains were returned to the reserve. She didn't understand the significance of what she was watching then, but she does now.
Being at the exoneration is a story she will pass down to other generations.
"I can tell my grandchildren, my great-grandchildren," Tootoosis said. "I will be able to share with them this experience in my own way of what I witnessed, what I heard, what I saw."
Trudeau described Poundmaker as an early advocate for universal health care, as he fought for the federal government to live up to its Treaty 6 obligations that included providing medicine.
The chief and his people were later targeted by government representatives during the push to settle Western Canada.
On May 2, 1885, a Canadian expeditionary force attacked the reserve in retaliation for what it claimed was looting. Poundmaker said he and others had been gathering rations for his people, who were hungry because of declining bison herds.
The troops were forced to retreat in the battle, but Poundmaker convinced his people not to go after them.
"Chief Poundmaker saved many lives that day," said Trudeau.
Soon after, the prime minister said, the chief attempted to negotiate a peace agreement, but was arrested and convicted of treason. He was sent to a prison in Manitoba and released early because of poor health.
He died four months later.
Duane Antoine, the current chief of Poundmaker Cree Nation, held his hand out to Trudeau on stage to recreate the historic failed peace negotiation.
"In peace," both men said as they clutched hands.
Past leaders of the reserve spent years trying to convince Ottawa that Poundmaker should be vindicated.
While the exoneration is important, Milton Tootoosis, a headman and councillor at the reserve, said the band still has grievances with the Crown over treaty implementation.
Chief Wayne Semaganis of the neighbouring Little Pine First Nation said the exoneration is only a first step. He wants to see Ottawa address more wrongs of the past, and the present.
"A day like today is going to mean nothing until we have more meetings, concrete meetings, with real results. So that the person living on the reserve, that lives in the sad way we live now, has a better quality of life," he said.
It's not the first time Trudeau has apologized for historical injustices involving Canada's Indigenous people.
Last year, Trudeau apologized to the Tsilhqot’in community in British Columbia for the hanging of six chiefs more than 150 years ago and delivered a statement of exoneration in the House of Commons.

Even Oral history admits to looting

And yet the f*cking piece of shit still refuses to apologize to Admiral Mark Norman. Typical leftist trash. Refuses to take responsibility for his own actions while presuming he speaks for people long dead in apologizing for their actions. Any virtue signaling dick head can apologize for someone else. It takes a real man (or woman) to apologize for their own shit.

 

[Hoid]

His own actions?

Trudeau did not suddenly sit up one day and decide to pardon Mr Poundmaker.

Mr Trudeau is simply fulfilling one of the many obligations of his office.

 

[Twin_Moose]

He is fishing for votes

It's adorable when you're stupid but you think you're being clever.

 

[Jinentonix]

He is fishing for votes

Pffft, he's run out of bait. The only votes he's getting are from the fish still in his net that aren't smart enough to swim for the gaping hole at the other end of it.

I mean how f*cking uselessly pathetic do you have to be to have a lower approval rating than Trump? Then again, at this point in time genital warts are more popular than Groper.

 

[Danbones]

Just imagine an NDP / lieberal coalition


There is yer genital warts. Then Canada dies of cantsir.

There is no requirement for trudOWE to appologise for something that happened before he was born. Just more virtue signaling. He should appologise to the Canadian taxpayer for destroying all the good Harper did for our economy. ANd for being a lying sack of shit.

Mr. Speaker, I stand before you today to offer an apology to former students of Indian residential schools. The treatment of children in Indian residential schools is a sad chapter in our history. . . . Today, we recognize that this policy of assimilation was wrong, has caused great harm, and has no place in our country. . . .
The government now recognizes that the consequences of the Indian residential schools policy were profoundly negative and that this policy has had a lasting
and damaging impact on aboriginal culture, heritage and language.
