Most Canadians do not even know we have race laws in our Constitution, or what it all means, to both Natives and the rest of Canadians from all races, cultures and histories, so how can they know what “END RACE BASED LAW” means, until they understand the history and current actions taken because of these Constitutional Race Laws?
Gerry Gagnon is an expert on these Canadian race laws, and Michele Tittler is a warrior who created END RACE BASED LAW, to give Gerry a platform to help us all understand this ‘real’ racism in Canada.
โCanadian aboriginal elites are now demanding more than just the maintenance of their control over educational financial assistance for aboriginal youth. Theyโre demanding complete control over the entire aboriginal education system itself!ย
โUnfortunately,when considering the causes of low academic achievement on the part of aboriginal youth, it is apparently โverbotenโโฆto ever publicly ask or debate whether or not the โseparate but equalโ status quo might be contributing to this disastrous situation (THAT might threaten egos, funding, control over funding, and Indian industry jobs). Ratherโฆtheir solution is for Canada and the provinces to pour more money into the existing dysfunctional situation, and to give aboriginal elites more control over itโฆโ โPeter Best

โA northern Saskatchewan โFirst Nationโ {Aboriginal community} blockaded a road and issued a cease-and-desist order against a Toronto uranium company. Birch Narrows Dene โNationโ {a โnationโ of 856 people} officials say they took action after workers with โBaselode Energy Corp.โ started surveying the Bandโs {former, ceded by Treaty!

โItโs unclear how the stalemate will be broken {? The Treaty language is clear โ See below}, but the case raises a host of legal, environmental and economic issues.
โOne academic said Canadaโs Constitution and โemergingโ case law is clear: โFirst Nationsโ concerns must be front and centreโฆ
Welcome to another episode of ‘Canadian Mythology’: Today’s Episode — “Do Treaties guarantee Aboriginals free health care?”ย
“Treaty Number Six was unique as it was THE ONLY TREATY OF ITS SORT WITH AN IMPLIED PROVISION FOR HEALTH CARE. It allows a medicine chest to be kept in the home of an Indian agent for the use and benefit of the aboriginals. Some aboriginals have interpreted this provision as extending to all who signed the Numbered Treaties. It is also interpreted by some as an promise by the federal government to provide free health care to every aboriginal person in Canada โ forever.” {CAPS Added}
โThe โequityโ rule states if a man retires from an NDP-held seat in the province, that man’s replacement must be a woman or an “equity-seeking” man; for example, a man who is a visible minority, a person with a disability or someone from the LGBTQ community.โ
โThe B.C. NDP has nominated former MP Nathan Cullen as its candidate for the โStikineโ riding…after โIndigenousโ {sic, they mean โAboriginal} leader Annita McPhee put her name forward for the position.ย Continue reading โHoisted With Their Own Petardโ→
