@Carolyn_Bennett You know what I find very strange? You re-tweeting a self identified white professor, who is trying so hard to erase other Indigenous people. The people he has his focus on, the Eastern Metis, their genealogy is being used by Qalipu for Status rights and
benefits, while those of us who connect to the same ancestors are being called Pretendians and Fetis, can you please explain to me, how and why this happened? Nova Scotia, Acadian Metis genealogy is being used for Status in Newfoundland, is not recognized in Nova Scotia,
where it originated. Just so happens I have several root ancestors of this chief as well. Guess where I and my ancestors come from? Hint, it is not Newfoundland. So as you can see, I find it very confusing why you would be re-tweeting @DarrylLeroux, when he has me and my disabled
11 yr old son up on his raceshifting website and has done several other things that go directly against our human rights. For one, how he has my family positioned is not our worldview. I get my identity from my nanny, whose Mom and Dad both go back to several of these root
ancestors, this chief has used to get Mi'kmaq Status through the Qalipu Band, when my family is not recognized at all, Why is that Ms Bennet? 🤑🤑🤑.. My great Nanny Mius' dad was born before the Indian Act, and he was an Acadian Halfbreed Mi'kmaw. He is 4 generations away from
2 Peace and Friendship signatories in our family, of which there are 4 , 2 are by marriage. The 2 who are in our family ancestors, are Mathieu Mius, signed the ratified 1725/26 treaty. Which story do we believe today from the wacky Professor?
Francis Muise LaHeve Treaty - 1761 treaty that the Marshal case is based on, but when it comes to my family, no consideration is allowed at all. Wondering minds, wonder why? #Reconciliation my ass.
Nova Scotia Archives - Sydenham Howe's Scrapbook - Francoise Mius - Chief of the LaHave Indians.
Chief goes through Pierre, I go through Martin.

@dmw411 -- not so much as one peep back and I am expecting I will get the same from you. No matter, we are finding ourselves and we will be bringing lots more evidence to the tables that INAC and others have colluded on to make sure Eastern Metis people were not recognized.
@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.
