and you are the "moderator " here?
No, it doesn't appear you do know much about it. Start with my first post if interested in learning. Without information, "opinions" are worth peanuts.

We owe Indigenous people a lot more than we have ever "given" them, and with resources stolen, interest accrual, etc. we're toast unless we start negotiating in good faith. Genocide won't work this time. UN is watching.
Where do you live? Toronto? gone ... Mississaugas Nations 2003 ... paying for that will cost us a bit, eh? Fortunately we don't have to pay for Toronto Islands as they still own them ... unceded land ... they will be reclaiming them soon. ... Windsor area?? Pelee Island ... also unceded ... waiting for them to reclaim it too.

Please reconsider my request... if indeed you are the moderator. Canadians need to KNOWLEDGE not knee JERK opinions. Otherwise, they won't know what hit them. Government doesn't tell us anything. They acknowledged Toronto Islands and Pelee Islands, and closed their file. That's the extent of their information for Canadians on this topic.
.... and ask an older Canadian what they know about Duncan Campbell Scott.

... and where my post is located is still an issue to me. ... because of what that says ... "go away ... shut up ... go back to your teepee"
thx.

   

BOO!!

   

Wow.... What a profoundly idiotic, asinine thread.

Someone actually believes that Canada's treatment of aboriginals - admittedly nothing to be proud of - can be literally compared to the Holocaust.

   

Virgil ... truth warrior ... welcome to my thread.
Nya:Weh for your important remarks and humane perspective.

Carry on!

Reprise ... especially for you
Youngblood speaks up for Haudenosaunee Six Nations

   

They would agree with that ... no more Canadian government "oversight" on their sovereign territory. They choose NOT to be Canadian. Unlike the rest of us, they did not 'come here' for that purpose, and we haven't been very nice to them. See "final solution" link in first post if you wonder why.

What free ride are you talking about? There is no monthly cheque. Their communities are government funded at HALF the rate of our municipalities (WITHOUT including local taxes). The ones I know are professionals, business people, iron workers, etc.

Where does this free ride rumour come from? Government maybe? I wonder why? Why are they trying to denigrate, dismiss, deny Indigenous rights and titles ... and people? (See final solution link.) The UN is onto Canada ... we are on the watch list.

   

Beg to differ ... see first post.

YOU may not be fighting because of greed. But many are.[/quote]

Not the traditional people. They are reemerging as a powerful force, and they want the land.



There was no war against the Indigenous people in Canada!!
They were our allies!!
(WHERE do you GET this crap?)

If not for the Iroquois/Haudenosaunee warriors, WE WOULDN'T BE CANADA!!!

... we would be U.S. Read up on the war of 1812-1814 where they saved us from that fate. (Some of us still care about that.) We signed treaties and agreements with them, Royal Proclamations, etc. All of these are validated by our Constitution (1982).

We invited them to live in Canada as cherished allies, gave them the Grand River Valley, just like United Empire Loyalists who also had to flee the U.S. after the War of Independence were given land.

Canada has been in violation of its own laws for a VERY long time.
Haudenosaunee Six Nations are changing that now.

Grand River ... SIX MILES DEEP on either side... SOURCE TO MOUTH (Orangeville to Lake Erie)

It is theirs ... and they love the land.

   

I'll wait until you learn who Duncan Campbell Scott was.
See first post.
Here's a clue: DCS (Superintendent of Indian Affairs Canada 1913-1932) coined the phrase "final solution". Hitler picked it up in 1933.

Then come on back, good buddy, cos I haven't eaten a youngun in a long time!
hehehehehehe

   

Hmmm ... just checked my skin and it's still white!:wink:
I am a supporter of Haudenosaunee.
I am a Canadian ... of Irish descent and friggen fighting mad that MY country ... is an ASS!!

Re WWII ... see the link in frst post ... the "final solution" was invented here ... 1913-1932 officially. Hitler picked up on it in 1933.

Of course you know we Canadians are polite ... not going to go out and massacre people ... somebody might TELL on us!!

We did it over SIX GENERATIONS and counting. We had the churches do the dirtiest work for us (now how polite is that, eh?). Only half of the kids who went in to the residential schools came out alive. Last government run one one closed in 1986. There are still some to tell the tales ... and they do ... search residential schools, survivor, stories.

They are moving forward ... They know the way to health and dignity is through reclaiming their land and sovereignty. I, however, am only beginning a campaign of education for Canadians who may not be aware of what Canada's governments have done in our name.

Just like the court system ... gotta show remorse if you want leniency ... and healing. Otherwise, we are a festering bunch of puss-pots!

Interesting ... your history. Indigenous people from here have visited. The concerns about the rainforest there are the same as about the boreal forest here. They intend to preserve the land, and that will be good for all of us!

   

They were our allies ... saved us from being American.

   

Yes disease ... in the residential schools TB was the biggie ... kinda tends to spread if you put the well children in bed with two sick children ... systematically ... on purpose.

Only half of the kids who went to the schools (over 100 years in Canada) came out alive.

Traditional people who stayed on the land and kept their traditional ways were the targets.

Hitler learned it from us, but he did not have Canadian politeness and reserve ... he was MUCH too public about it!
See first post.

   

Woman ... thanks ... fighting-Irish Canadian woman!!

If I am wrong ... where is YOUR evidence?

Mine is in the first post.

And for the record ... I did not say "Hitler" ... you guys did.
I was only quoting Duncan Campbell Scott, Superintendent of Indian Affairs Canada 1913-1932. He coined the phrase "the final solution". Appears Hitler picked it up in 1933.

And also for the record ... Canada was a racist country then ... would not take the Jews who were fleeing Europe. Not until the war was over and the death camps were discovered was Canada FORCED to reconsider.


If we know not our history, we know not ourselves ... for someone more knowledgeable can always come along and shake our foundations.

Read the first post ... and link.

   

Good for them. Got their land back eh?

Research shows that groups with land claims in process and self-governance are MUCH healthier. Adolescent suicide is a key indicator. Did you know there are places in Canada now where it is as high as 80%? "Problems" are relative ... and relative to the problems they had before, I'll bet they are doing better now.

I want to make a distinction between Canada's elected Band Councils and the Ongwehonwe traditional people. Very different motivations ... different as tories and liberals and in many of the same ways.

Haudenosaunee Six Nations Confederacy has assumed leadership from the Band Council, and operates administration in partnership with them. They want the land back so they can preserve it.

   

They ar just giving you a sample of how it will look once the highway goes through.

   

And you would know, being 'Regina' and all.

Pls read the first post and the link, then do your own research to refute it.

I'm waiting ......
