Wake Up and Smell the Mayflower

There is a CDN election coming up, and this is a post to cover issues that arise in the coming election.
The Kelowna Accord was introduced by the Liberals, it included billions of dollars to bring Canadas FN up to par with the rest of Canada. The conservatives cut that as soon as they got in. The Liberals are promising the same this election. Not all candidates reflect the attitude of Liberal leader Michael Ignatieff , Quebec candidate Andre Forbes was booted out of the campaign for for calling Aboriginal people “featherheads." He also founded a white supremacy group. Ignatieff issued a statement Wednesday afternoon saying Andre Forbes would no longer be the candidate in Manicougan.
In Quebec,  Bloc candidate Yvon Levesque said Quebecer's wouldn't vote for NDP candidate Romeo Saganash, in his words, "some constituents will no longer vote for the new democrats since they have decided to run an aboriginal candidate". Basically saying, doesn't matter the James Bay Cree is a well known lawyer, he's still just an Indian. FN are making headlines in this coming election, but for all the wrong reasons.
Harper is supporting euntreprenuers who start thier own business, and reseves that want to develop thier land. re-instating MP Kelli Blockspill who insists on salaries being made public., plans for north>  northern strategy. plan to complete dempster highway. if he gets majority, he will pass these in the first 100 days. no mention of bringing  in running water, just the highway.
  There are alot of people happy to make money off the suffering of first nations. in some situations like up north, it is "supervised neglect" (3). brainwashed to be dependant on someone else. its up to us to do things for ourselves.

  1. Home improvement loans as their names say, are home loans meant to finance home modifications. Doing a modification in our home can either be necessary or just because we want our homes to look better. Within modifications or improvements, we can count general repairs, adding a new room, a bathroom, or redecorating the kitchen, just to mention some examples. สล็อตแตกง่าย

  2. I didn’t feel like there was really any closure or idea where it was going and was a little disappointed with it. คาสิโนtrue wallet ไม่มีขั้นต่ำ
