Colonies-Canada to 1867- pub-Toronto, Ont. McGraw-Hill Ryerson- in some areas such as La Have intermarriage with the Micmac helped to establish families giving the settlements an aura of greater permanency.
National Museums of Canada, 1981 - Dossier - Musée National de L'homme, Service Canadien D'ethnologie - Some communities such as the La-Have - Mirligueche region had large metis concentrations.
History of the County of Lunenburg- Mather Byles DesBrisay-W. Briggs, 1895 - Lunenburg N.S. - subercase in command states there is a body of Micmac from Chebucto and Metis from La Have.
sec 117 - Harry Daniels case describing the core group of MNSI as a group of native people who maintained a strong affinity for their Indian Heritage without possessing Indian status.
Harry Daniels conference - Maria Campbell - but what is wrong with many tribes, There is Metis from Red River but what is wrong with Metis from someplace else. Identity is lived experience.
Mal-i-Mic-News-August-September-1978 - Aboriginal rights and land claims - Daniels calls for founding nations conference- Mr Daniels stated that the Metis are mixed offspring of the Native People of Canada and all the people of the world.
part 17 Daniels - no consensus on who is metis, as early as 1650 a distinct Metis community developed in LeHeve Nova Scotia, separate from the Acadians and the Micmac Indians. All Metis are aboriginal people, All have Indian ancestry.
@thewalrus Jean Teillets liberal cabinet ministers family identify as French Canadians, many Metis identified as French Canadians , when is the expose gonna be run on her ?
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. !!
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
Do you think that whoever made the lying judgement about me being 14 generations had any merit in the decisions of this case?
I really would love to know how I can find out how this Red River Metis judge appointed by the Liberals came to that conclusion? No mention that my Great Grandmother Evangeline Mius was 4 generations from 2 Peace and Friendship Treaty Signatories.
Ahh @CBCNews is at it again, all Indigenous organizations are self identified and you know that very well, including your beloved @MBMetis_MMF
Also, NunatuKavut, previously known as the Labrador Metis Nation, has been recognized by the Supreme Court of Canada. So not sure how you now call it an unrecognized Indigenous Organization.
