Just a guy from southern Alberta who likes cattle, open skies, and a quiet morning checking the fence lines.
Trying to keep the family ranch going, learn a little every day, and enjoy the simple things.
@arminhammer41@AlbertaLeonidas@yegwave “Ceded” doesn’t mean “we gave up every right and have no say anymore.” Read the treaties yourself. They exchanged land cession for specific Crown promises and continuing treaty rights. The treaties are agreements, not one-word surrender documents.
@ngakpamandu@yegwave Treaties aren’t “pieces of paper” Alberta gets to renegotiate after a vote. They’re constitutionally protected agreements. First Nations aren’t enclaves, and Alberta doesn’t get to unilaterally rewrite nation-to-nation agreements because it wants to separate.
@AlbertaLeonidas@yegwave We have our independence as self governing nations. Our treaties (4-6-7-8 and 10) cover all of Alberta. These racist comments within this thread shows why the vote won’t go anywhere.
@Altaguy1995@yegwave Which is why Alberta isn’t going to separate because of racist fucks like you. Our treaties 4-6-7-8 and 10 covers all of Alberta. These treaties are with the Crown. You can’t do fuck all about it.
@mcmurrayman@yegwave It’s called treaties you dumb fuck. Your people entered into them. They negotiated them, don’t like them you have the government to blame.
@resaleTOhomes I am Blackfoot from Southern Alberta. Always have my eye on the Feds and province. Can’t really say how I feel until I can see more info.
@PierrePoilievre If you would have been PM and signed this deal you would have given the US veto power of Canadian affairs. Among about 10 other ridiculous request that Trump wanted.
@droncone1@TeiSpeaks@JohnBrownlow If Alberta ever tried to leave Canada outside the law, First Nations wouldn’t simply go along with it. Our treaties, rights, lands, and nations aren’t Alberta’s to take. We’d defend our jurisdiction and decide our own future.
@MarcNixon24 PP couldn’t win his riding and doesn’t have the security clearance. You’re saying Carney should have agreed to limit trade with other countries and to forget about French language laws? If so then fuck PP even more.
