If it does not make sense to a white natty climate change denier how could it not be true?
Did you happen to notice that the glaciers in Iceland and Greenland are growing in size and thickness ? Do you have plans for the coming ice age ?

As I understand it from your article is that they have a reserve in the US and want to expand it into Canada because at one time they foraged there before a line was drawn in agreement between Canada and the US. They decided to move South into the US and vacated their Canadian territory, now they can see dollar signs because they found a bloodline that didn't move South with them. Do I have this correct Cliffy?


All I know is the Oil industry pays me money to buy groceries to eat, If that all dried up and there was no other way to make money I guess I could go out on my back forty find a deer, if not one of my calves, to shoot and grow some potatoes, that got paid for by my job with an oil company, what would you do?



And who exactly do you think is financing this trust fund (that we argued about in another thread where I proved to you doesn't exist) and paying for faux land claim? The Queen? Royalties owed to the depth of the plow? HBC shorted them on the full value of Beaver pelts? Natives didn't know anything about what resources were buried here the same as the British Gov. when they signed the treaties, Natives were only worried about feeding their people and continued hunting rights, and you know that's the truth.


You know nutting. Almost none of the tribes signed any treaties. They were forced off their land and onto reservations by starvation and murder. Like on the prairies, the government wiped out their source of food, namely salmon. The Columbia River was once one of the largest salmon fisheries in the world. Now it is so dammed, the only thing still living here are the kokanee. Anyway, talking to a moron is a waste of time. So have a good day.

It's Monday folks.

Time to talk endlessly about immigrants and homosexuals and transexuals and indians and liberals and how none of them are ok.

Oh, and Trudaeu.

So at the time of confederation Whiteman destroyed the Salmon stock and the world leading Native Salmon industry, Cliffy what's in it for you? Because your story is full of BS, your article even stated they moved South and abandoned their Canadian territory which in turn the Fed. Gov. claimed extinct from Canada. We all can read between the lines they lost money on the TMPL expansion, BC is trying to finalize land claims worth big money, if you believe this is anything more than a money grab they have you buffaloed?

You don't understand shit, goof. You worship money so you figure everybody else does. Well, when the shit hits the fan, you will learn that you can't eat money or drink oil. I pity you on that day. Your disconnect from the real world is complete.
If they are treated like the rest of us, they are doing just fine.
