" a poor woman of the French and Indian mixture"
"This day I visited several persons, among whom was the Jack-a-tar woman..."
"Two men, "Jack-a-tars", came to tell Butler and some of them requested me to give some medicine to his wife. He, having brought her to her mother's in French town that I might visit her."
"This morning, a young woman, a Jack-a-tar, came to me for medicine to heal her sickness which "is sore"."
" I am sorry to see so much distress among the poor Jack-a-tars..."
"... walked across the ice to see a family of Jack-a-tars ..."

The Acadian Recorder - Halifax NS - Sat Dec 22 1855 - The Hudson's Bay Company and Territories- We Nova Scotians have an important interest in the immense property known as Ruperts Land or Hudson Bay Companies Territories. - an interest equal to that of our own neighboring
colonists of the North American continent./ it is still scarcely less obvious that we are interested in the prosperity of the Hudson's Bay Companies Territories, as a large valuable and not remote portion of the empire of which our province forms a part and consequently as a
country with which in the event of its prosperity we may both directly and indirectly carry on an extensive and profitable trade./ It appears then that the Hudson's Bay Company now exercises authority and virtual ownership over more than 3,000,000 square miles or about three

L'Evangéline - May 2, 1888 - The Acadian Proscription. " ... the famous Acadian question which he says appears to have been treated by some writers in a manner calculated to travesty the truth and to deceive the public." May I suggest to you @nsgov @NS_Archives that the same
thing keeps happening today! Have those records ever been made public? What about the decieving that is still ongoing today. Like the government not recognizing the Indigenous status of the SangMele Acadian people, but those genealogies are taken and used in Newfoundland to

Have had it brought to my attention that the Mi'kmaw Chiefs, Bennet and several others have already been made aware of this situation a long time ago, of using our Nova Scotia genealogy for status IN NEWFOUNDLAND. Weird how nothing was ever said or done about it. 🧐🤑🤬
"Dear Minister Bennett. The Government of Canada has and is allowing the FNI ( Qalipu) to use the history, ancestry and documentation of the French/ half-breeds from Nova Scotia and Bras ‘or Cape Breton to acquire First Nation Status and call them selves Newfoundland
Indians.The French/ half breeds as the mixed blood Acadian Metis were often referred as, are not Newfoundland Indians. Some of the Brothers From areas of N.S and Cape Breton did move to Newfoundland and were referred to there as Jack a tars but they were from Nova

Chiefs - documents used for status - Nova Scotia Genealogy used in Newfoundland - Pierre Lejeune aka Dit Briard wikitree.com/wiki/Lejeune-29 @MikmakiNews Never heard of an Acadian Mi'kmaw let me introduce you to one, used for Mi'kmaw Status in Newfoundland.
Relationship- Lejeune-360 (1) -- but I am just fake, apparently others can use this ancestry for status, but I am not allowed too claim my own family, I have mental issues according to @TheAgentNDN

Is this called tweet and run ? lol .. You want to have your say and not let me respond, lol .. Oh you're cute, I will say that, lol
others in Newfoundland are using our genealogy to have status and be recognized First Nations, but you have no damn integrity and apparently think I am stupid, lol
You want to tape me, edit the shit out of it, and make it be what you want the conversation to be .. I have seen that done over and over. I am just me, why would I need to go on national news, I had already answered you and totally baffled why you keep going down that road.
