Weird how they never said that when the council was started it was the Metis and NonStatus Indian Association of Nova Scotia. Micmac News 1977 - Non Status And Metis association changed its name to the Native Council of Nova Scotia.

Form Nonstatus and Métis association - all women executive - MicmacNews-1975-03.

That is pretty ironic she goes on about how the Chiefs will represent a status Mi'kmaq with no Mi'kmaq blood but she calls those of us with actual descent ancestry "so-called" Eastern Metis and they block us from joining the NCNS.

NCNS v Canada Attorney General 2005 FC 1739-CanLII - represents Metis and off-reserve-non-status Aboriginal people and seeks to enforce the the Aboriginal and treaty rights enjoyed by these individuals.

2016 NSPC 13 CanLII - membership in NCNS is voluntary and open to any Mi'kmaq or Aboriginal person living off-reserve in Nova Scotia. -- Huh, oh no they don't.

Pierre Sabourin ( NCNS Citizenship )- saying sec 3.12 has zero to do with 'Eastern Metis'. - Ah Pierre , there is another section that deals with Enfranchised Indians.

So many lies - Pierre Sabourin - saying sec 3.12 has zero to do with 'Eastern Metis'. - as you can see plainly, sec 3.13 is for enfranchised Indians, sec 3.12 was for Metis in the east, they have chosen to do a a little play on words. So much corruption, so much greed.

No one ever did answer me because there is absolutely nowhere to turn when they refuse to represent you.
