so which side of the border is this? in canada or the states?

[BLOODTRIBECOMM]

Canada

[autocook16]

Sorry for being totally ignorant, but in the US, we call "indians" either Native Americans or American Indians. What is the common term that Canada uses? Would Native Canadians or Canadian Indians be correct, or is there some other label to be used?

Thanks for your help.

[clocks05]

They are commonly reffered as First Nations or Aboriginals or they are called by their tribe name.

[tradguy08]

well.............from my rez the blackfeet rez its about a 1 hr. and 30 mins. depending on how you travel but i really don't now the distance from anywhere else but i guess if you count the distance from where your @ to browning and add that hour and a half on then there's your distance..........

[crainproductions]

That Helps!!! How is that one anyways....they got some good drums that attend?

[tradguy08]

yeah!!! this year there was bull horn, blackstone, cree, confederation, blackfoot confederacy, mountain soul, wild horse, and some other good ones. its a pretty good one well...I liked it anyways!!! and I know some others that really liked that one.

[crainproductions]

Sounds like a pretty good one!!! Whats it like crossing over the border??? Do they respect ya things.....feathers and stuff like that???? I dont like peeps handling my things if ya know what i mean!!!

[tradguy08]

um.....going thru isn't so bad I usually go thru cardsons border its called carway their real friendly they jus ask a couple Q's and thats the same way wit del bonita port but I strongly suggest people dont go thru coots their ass holes to natives they treat u like criminals. but carway and del bonita are good they don't mess wit your feathers or anything.......friendly towards natives..........they usually ask u to register your eagle feathers @ carway that way u have no problems..but its good

[crainproductions]
