@Gervais_andy5 @m8tis_seb I am not a creature of Canada or an NGO group person. I am of my own nation and we are Métis Acadians. The Queen, the US laws, Canadian and International laws going back to the Treaty of Utrecht know my people. How dare you say I do not exist! 
@Gervais_andy5 @m8tis_seb My Acadian Métis people know exactly who we are. We also know the deportation was illegal and we didn’t get the Queen’s apology for being some made up fringe group of people who got money for being who we are. We suffered a Genocide and we’re still here and we never had support.
@Gervais_andy5 @m8tis_seb This movie has a passage specific to my village of Caraquet. Go 52 minutes in. Learn the history. nfb.ca/film/tintamarr…
@Gervais_andy5 @m8tis_seb My father was a proud Métis Vet and his name listed here. J.A.Lanteigne. vcn.bc.ca/~jeffrey1/LtoZ…
@Gervais_andy5 @m8tis_seb Vatican Concordat of 1610 formed the First Nation on North America. My ancestral grandfather Henri Membertou ratified it. Our wampum is with the Vatican and UN. Hereditary Chief Augustine and Chief Sylliboy are holding the wampum of it here.
@Gervais_andy5 @m8tis_seb We formed of Henri Membertou’s line that married the House of Savoy. Neither Vatican nor Church of England can vanquish us. Our Treaty of Utrecht rights still stand and make us distinct from Mi’kmaw.
@Gervais_andy5 @m8tis_seb My dad’s medal of St. Anne celebrates the patron saint of our Membertou line. Our shrine is that of St. Anne du Boucage where my kin are buried.
@Gervais_andy5 @m8tis_seb Saint is Maurice is the patron saint of the Savoie line. We had been doing trade in Antwerp, West Indies and coastal areas centuries before Canada existed. Spice trade, Cod and Slave Trade had long integrated people of North America but Canada tried to scrub that history.
@Gervais_andy5 @m8tis_seb Before deportation, our Hockey sticks, baskets and snow shoes were traded in Antwerp. This artwork is from 1550’s and London knew the history. They hide the prehistory using the UK Act of Settlement 1701 to re-create Canada to fit their desired history.
@Gervais_andy5 @m8tis_seb My family enlisted to join Canada as allies. The medal from the Korean War given to my dad was UN issued not Canada even though he served for the RCAF for over 25 years. Canadians are given a different one. My dad’s service records were at the UN not Canada.
@Gervais_andy5 @m8tis_seb I don’t blame you for not knowing the history but I am simply upset that Canada hid it and they continued to abuse my people long after deportation. My family story here.
@Gervais_andy5 @m8tis_seb My dad suffered PTSD and faced racism and other issues and I thank God that he got the help he needed from Métis Ontario to cope because these are not issues of Canadians. He needed that help to make it through and I am I debt he received it.
@Gervais_andy5 @m8tis_seb What I am fighting for is the healing path for my people to continue to access that help because Clem Chartier and Morley Googoo cut that off to support a Natural Gas Plant.
@Gervais_andy5 @m8tis_seb Both Clem and Morley were in my view, the yes men for oil and gas. Because Acadians and the Wabanaki Confederacy didn’t support this, they tried to disenfranchised us as Métis people. bnnbloomberg.ca/nova-scotia-li…
@Gervais_andy5 @m8tis_seb And Enbridge and Irvings were probably were not too thrilled when I added 609 million to fix their valves along Line 9. I went to the hearings wearing my ceinture flechee. vancouverobserver.com/news/waterloo-…
@Gervais_andy5 @m8tis_seb The move to remove us as Métis was linked to Dentons who links to China. Harper worked for Dentons as soon as he left office. I tracked the mess here. This is what I found. buzzchronicles.com/b/law/10612/
@Gervais_andy5 @m8tis_seb When a foreign entity has fossil fuel ambitions enough to block my people’s path to reconciliation and healing, that crosses an international line that has to be addressed with proper debate.
