Glad to see the younger generation pushing back on the @1850RHTreaty attempts to erase families by sharing their histories and current experiences.

Shameful treatment from those that claim to represent. #RobinsonHuronTreaty #RHTLF

@DarrylLeroux TY for your continued work on these issues. Your & O'Toole's reports for MMF & others can be strengthened by fact that growing numbers of the "founding" families in Mattawa/Temiskaming are status under Indian Act = not metis. Ref'd docs are the same they use to apply to ISC.

[Sylvia Heart @sl_ode]

@PeterRecollet Now that the party is over, do you think the general list families will get an update or will they continue to be ignored. The current situation created by @1850RHTreaty is disgraceful. A year of nothing but excuses.

[Sylvia Heart @sl_ode]

@dl_hickey Not from Dokis but thank you for your overview of info shared. Still no meetings for the general list annuitants (the 1% mentioned). Is the community that left Temagami? They are the 22nd band on gov site list of entitled to rht.

@FrancesMFDanger Not the only org developing this “service” https://t.co/z5e7Aly5n1

@dl_hickey Thanks for sharing. I get it. We'll keep trying. Just fyi gov site info...

[Sylvia Heart @sl_ode]

@dl_hickey RHT has limited communications since the Mizhinawe was fired. Leaving 100s out of the conversations.

[Sylvia Heart @sl_ode]

@dl_hickey Sorry. General List Sudbury (817) are Status people who are RHT annuitants but for various reasons aren't also members of the 21 Bands. Could be that their families were on the territory in 1850 but not members or haven't been accepted back in aft enfranchisement.

@Runes90s @1850RHTreaty @PeterRecollet @DukePeltier @Chief_S_McLeod @AtikamekshengA @GardenRiver @WasauksingFN @gerry_chief @Nipissing_FN @AnishNation @Leebennett1850 My family has Qs abt general annuitant feedback. But @1850RHTreaty never answers email, X or FB. If 1% is 4 those who are not band members why is remaining going back to the 21 instead of setting up a trust for future of 817. Who is deciding amt 4 817? Gov't knows who's on list.

@Runes90s @1850RHTreaty @PeterRecollet @DukePeltier @Chief_S_McLeod @AtikamekshengA @GardenRiver @WasauksingFN @gerry_chief @Nipissing_FN @AnishNation @Leebennett1850 Grandchildren are. They receive the annual $. Depending on time of yr you apply to GC it can take 2-3 months to process. 4 future you can find summer dates to go to ISC Offices to pick up in person. Spoke to Mizhinawe b4 fired & looked promising but no response from RHT1850.

@1850RHTreaty @PeterRecollet @DukePeltier @WasauksingFN @GardenRiver @AtikamekshengA @Nipissing_FN @Chief_S_McLeod @gerry_chief @Leebennett1850 @AnishNation Again general list annuitants are left out in the cold w no communication since the Mizhinawe was let go. Where did our feedback go? Who listens/speaks for approximately 600 people in that situation? What about our grandchildren's futures?

[Sylvia Heart @sl_ode]

@WillowFiddler @katawasin @WriterWong @CBCNews Would an amended certificate from another country have a hospital listed and Dr. signed? I would think that there would be a record of birth at the hospital too but maybe not in the USA. So saddened by the hurt everyone is feeling.

[Sylvia Heart @sl_ode]

@1850RHTreaty @DukePeltier @PeterRecollet @GardenRiver @Leebennett1850 If general list annuitants sent comments to Mr. LaForme, do they have to resubmit them to someone now that he has resigned?

[Sylvia Heart @sl_ode]

@VeldonCoburn Have all the questionable ancestors in the Algonquin Nation Secretariat report been reviewed?

[Sylvia Heart @sl_ode]

The youth are our future! What a positive example.

Breaking News! The Canadian Human Rights Tribunal has just approved the $23.4Billion compensation agreement for children, youth and families affected by Canada’s discriminatory conduct towards First Nations children, youth and families. Link to decision coming soon!

[Sylvia Heart @sl_ode]

@Jewelanland @AylanX No question the AOO is problematic. Algonquin FN might consider welcoming back those with Indian status instead of leaving them in limbo so that their only community is tied to AOO. Work 2 strengthen the Nation instead of leaving it fractured by feds. Similar 4 RHT FN gen list.
