Year in review: hearing hard truths about First Nations farmers

[jazz]

Ya, he was looking for a fight he never got.

chuck is the guy who believes the govt can do no wrong, now tells us the govt did wrong. The self own is incredible.

Really throws a wrench into the marxist way. Imagine the mental gymnastics at work there.

let the govt handle it, but there will be no reparations or private land back happening. Crown owns 90% of the country, let them give land back first.

I went to high school with Judge Gerald Morin.
He got an Order of Canada recently.
Kind of the equivalent of knighthood and a Sir in front of your name.
Probably one of the most successful guys I know.
Nobody ever looked at Gerry as under privileged as he created his own image. Strong athlete who played multiple sports,good student who took stacks of homework home and always had the best looking girls.
Made his own success.
Will tell you it was hard work but he knew where he wanted to go.
In a recent interview he said he tells young kid in front of him in court;

"Stay in school, learn how to say a key word… ‘no’,” said Morin. “No, I have to study; no, I have to work on this project. Those are the messages the young people need.”

Just want to point out, he's Metis.

To separate Nations!

Your right.

At school the Metis used to tease us they had to walk to school like us but our friends with treaty got the taxi!
They all came from Cumberland House.

Tom, lack of "Personal Responsibility" is the only problem? Are you serious?

And how would "personal responsibility" solve all the problems that were created by the indian act, residential schools, poverty on uneconomic reserves, let alone the systemic racism?

What did Prime Minister Harper apologize in the House of Commons for? Did you forget already?

Following buffalo all day and realizing it’s mice for supper is real poverty.

So what is the solution for the wrongs done to native people? Reserves, Indian Act and the problems resulting from it see no end in sight because reserves and Indian act still in place. Said before white man came chief and council didn’t exist. It was an invention of the powers at the time. Here’s a video from a native guy I found thought provoking. Ties in with your agenda 2030 You should watch it.

Been watching some YouTube videos from Russia of journalists visiting the far east of Siberia. Similar situation. Resident populations ethnically diverse almost like our native people here. No work, living in crumbling cities with no real hope drunk most of the time. Heck a lot of Russians probably live that way. What do you think has caused these parallels? Please think and respond.

Stating the obvious CC…

I know people of native heritage…. Who were, are, and continue to be prosperous, productive, people.

Just as Hutterites are often successful, prosperous, productive contributors to Canadian and Global civilization…

So there are plenty of native people and organizations who make valuable contributions to humanity.

Any person can be a victim… their heritage is secondary to their personal lives and how they deal with life’s challenges.

Personal responsibility… CC…

Stop being a victim… take responsibility for your own destiny!!!
