A while back (2019) I did a deep dive about Jody Wilson Raybould.

I found a lot. So many people believe she is an ethical indigenous woman.

She is indigenous and she is a woman, but she’s as crooked and corrupt as they come. And it breaks my heart to reveal that.

I wouldn’t want people getting the idea that all indigenous women are crooked and corrupt.

But it’s not just Jody. There are a few others with a hidden agenda that have captured the ears and hearts of many Canadians.

What’s ironic is none of them consider themselves Canadian.

Every indigenous person in Canada has their own reconciliation hopes and a backstory to make it necessary to reconcile. Jody and her faction of First Nations have every right to be angry, bitter, vengeful and full of contempt.

But operating with a hidden agenda is wrong.

I cannot support the FN hidden agenda. Because it denies my community full participation in reconciliation and UNDRIP.

And I’m not going to be silenced by threats or intimidation by calling me a colonizer or a “pretendian” which is a particularly harsh & disrespectful epithet.

I watched the events recorded in this mega thread in real time. I watched how it unfolded. Confused by the conflict, I thoroughly researched JWR and the SNC scandal.

I did not find a liberal scandal.

But I did find a very extensive CPC scandal that JWR actively sought to keep covered up.

Most people don’t remember past events. But when you assemble past events in one long 100+ tweet thread, it becomes quite simple to recognize the danger Canada is in.

With Cindy Blackstock and JWR re-emerging as key propagandists, protected by gender and ethnic identity as shields, during the 2021 federal election, to humiliate, assassinate character and make exceptionally deceptive partially true accusations, this thread is timely.

It’s long, but it’s worth your time if you commit to reading the attachments as well as the tweets.

If you’re serious about understanding indigenous issues, this will give you a broad overview and specific issues and how divided the 4 different indigenous communities are.

It’s a myth that all indigenous peoples in Canada share an affinity along with traditional beliefs.

They don’t.

Much of that is caused by the divisive and unequal treatment each community has received.

Historically the federal govt has treated each community differently.

Métis amd non status FN did not have Treaty Status until 2016. Yes you read that correctly. 2016 not 1916, 2016. Five years ago.

Until that point, Métis and non status FN were essentially ignored by the federal government and provincial governments. They were invisible.

That changed 5 years ago.

But, just like the CHRT correctly concluded that Children in FN CW were underfunded, so was everything else. Resources were scarce and racism high.

That 2016 decision to extend treaty status to Metis and non status FN has significantly expanded the indigenous population.

500K Métis and 250K non status. Almost doubling the indigenous population overnight.

It was not well received in some factions of the FN community.

Yes that means there are tensions. Conflict. Even more now than before because Liberals have made an extra 750K people party to reconciliation and UNDRIP reparations.

I’m being transparent about this. People with a hidden agenda are not transparent about their hidden agenda.

That hidden agenda includes the dismantling of Canadian constitution, including removal of the Indian Act, Treaty Rights, Human Rights and Freedoms and the judicial system.

It includes the return of land title and power to First Nations (excluding Métis and non status FN).

Individual First Nations would then be able to create their own laws, judicial system, administration and version of governance. Dividing the nation from one unified federation to 630 mini nations.

Generally when people hide their agenda, imposing a modern democracy is not high on the agenda.

And this radical faction of the FN community is no exception.

I don’t know what it would mean. But this is the Land Back movement.

I do not believe people with such venomous hatred are looking to create a welcoming nation for people who are not members of their FN.

Bear in mind, this is not every FN or every FN individual. And in the grand scheme of things it was indigenous land first.

But 37 million other people live here in Canada. The majority have roots here at least 30 years old. Rather than throw an entire nation into crisis, shouldn’t this be a public debate and joint decision?

Many don’t want it to be. Many are conducting the planning in silence.

I prefer a unified Canada. I don’t want to be anything other than Canadian.

There are too many inherent national security risks of annexation by adversarial entities who are promising relief from poverty and racism in exchange for guaranteed access to natural resources.

And a whole 2 continents who have made this deal with the devil with little to show for it but a few wealthy & corrupt indigenous people and a lot of war, suffering, violence and poverty for everyone else. (Africa & South America).

Anyway here is a long and interesting read about Canadian politics, known as the good guys, but actually kinda corrupt, petty, conspiratorial and as criminal as GOP.

Happy reading.
