The Micmac women who married Acadian men taught the newcomers a great deal about plants that would be
good to eat. Image
Visions- Editor's Choice Pre-Confederation, 2nd ed.-Canadian Ed.-Nelson Education- ©2015-
The ambiguity of national categories made it imperative for many Acadians, particularly those with family ties to the Mi'kmaq, to stay away from their Algonkian neighbors if they wanted to Image
avoid reclassification. Officials in Nova Scotia, struggled to define the boundaries between the Mi'kmaq and the Acadian communities for the next eleven years. Image
Visions- Editor's Choice Pre-Confederation, 2nd ed.-Canadian Ed.- Nelson Education- ©2015 - Re-examining Mi'kmaq - Acadian Relations William Wicken- During the early years of the fur trade and immediately after a settlement was established by Isaac de Razilly at La Heve in 1632, Image
some Europeans had married Mi'kmaq women.
Most parish registers are not available for these communities for most of the seventeenth century.Registers kept by missionaries living among the Mi'kmaq such as those of the Abbes Gaulin, Courtin, Maillard, and Le Loutre have not Image
survived. The parish registers that do exist, do not record Mi'kmaq-Acadian marriages. #Metis #SangMele

Well Claudette, you are not passing your own rules, you want to call people of Indigenous descent pretendian, than you too meet that label. You want to specify what strenuous battles you had with your lived experience on reserve?, 🤨 Image

Image
Or wait, did you mean your strenuous battles of marrying into the KZ reserve by virtue of your husband? 🤔 🤣 That must have been so strenuous, however did you stand it? 🤔 Image

Where is the expose on Claudette Commanda who has self promoted herself to top pretendian hunter, even though she has no lived experience, her mom is Quebec Metis who she says doesn't exist, and is only native and registered by the fact she married a registered native man.!
Your top pretendian hunters are dropping like flies, Eric Thisdale, who you used to prop up your work, mysteriously disappeared after questions about genealogy, Chrystal does not have the lived experience, you go on about as being one of the top qualifiers if being genuine

Funny how I can't even see my own replies, guess they are not relevant eh @X
@X As I was saying about Randy Ranville and how many western Metis did not grow up in the culture, why MMF has to tell all these lies which are easily proven, I do not know. !! Image

While I agree with a lot of this article. It is writing from a point that they are listenjng to lies and historical revision. I don't know the author so im not sure if its goal is to try and further erase the Eastern Metis or not.
Truth, Metis were in the Union of Nova Scotia Indians bylaws in the 70s. Which is close to the time frame that Western Metis were rediscovering and connecting to their own roots.

@TimHoustonNS can you tell me how someone finds out what funding a company gets? Apple Valley Foods Inc, has made their employees take a week unpaid vacation in March, and they have just been told they need to do the same in August. WTH? This is a large company they are being
punished for being too productive? They have too many pies made and no buyers? But the contract workers from Mexico and the Philippines get to continue working and being paid. How is that legal when they are aren't even supposed to have those workers unless they can't find a
local person to do that job? But they can make the local people take weeks off whenever they feel like it because they are being too productive!! Jeff Sarsfield, why the hell are you punishing your employees for being productive? They now do not get to choose their own
