The details of my life are really quite inconsequential. This land is mine through my mother's line. Everything I put here is editorial dialogue/commentary.
@AylanX I took Cree 100 and 101 at SIFC (FNUC today) in the late 80s. There was a Chilean guy who got better marks than me. A hard worker. My Nehiyawewin hasn't improved much since then....
I see the Indigenous twitterverse is arguing again about how some NDN’s don’t measure up to what other darker NDN’s think they/we should look like, to be accepted. To be Indigenous. I cared once. Now I just do my work for our people and will let the Creator make that judgement.
Why Love the Liberals? 1969 white paper, 2 percent cap , Inherent Right Policy - removal of tax Exemption modern treaties and finally the Rights Recognition . All above aimed at full compliance with Crown Sov. Trying to end international treaty and our jurisdiction forever.
My 101-yr-old mother, who speaks Cree, (Nehiyaw notokwew ota) watching the Habs-Canes game Sunday night in her mother's language on aptn. She's impressed with Clarence Iron's play-by-play.
Ran into an old “source” tonight who I’d worried had died. Aged out of CFS care two years ago so I guess he’s 20. Living on the streets. Said he’s off meth and looked like he was. He’s the brother one of the most well known cases of MMIWG. All I could do was offer him tobacco.
