straiter joe cecile they all have no relation to CROWFOOT!!! their real name z WHITE GHOST!!! the white man gave tht name to thm!!! Marcell Weasel Head was the one tht unveiled CROWFOOT at the parliment!! Bcz they knew the real last surviving relative to crowfoot was HIM!! All these white guys have iz thr name!!! no relation what so ever!!! kinda sad to see them say he was thr grand father...a real family member would know the truth!!
Our National anthem should read - O Canada my home on NATIVE land, rather than - O Canada my home and native land - need to get the truth and point across to those that know nothing of the history of whom nurtured the land prior to our invasion and encroachment - Lest we forget .................
So tragic. One thing that stood out to me was the phrase "They saw Education as the new Buffalo....asking for a way to be able to make the TRANSITION to the NEW WORLD that was coming around." Let me say that we are NOW losing our Mother Earth Resources in and around the GULF waters and watching so many beautiful Animal companions die. They die because of Irreverance. WE must get off of OIL and bring forth a new world. it will take TIME for it to be cleaned up and for New Life to emerge.

kewl vid.......what i always wonder about crowfoot is what would have happened if he had chose differently, and said no to the trip to ottawa ...and chose to join louis riel, big bear and his adopted son poundmaker in the northwest uprising....in 1885 the blackfoot confederacy was still a force to be reckoned with (well still is actually lol)....it is said that crowfoot believed it was pointless to fight, but i still wonder
dont forget the restrictions put on SikSika concerning selling produce on the free market off reserve. white farmers pushed Ottawa to make a law. so that no native can sell his goods off the rez. it would outrageous if that racist avaricious law is still in effect.
Thank you for posting this video, my mother was blackfoot and my Grand mother lived on the Res. She told me these things and it was harder than most people could realize, the Canadian goverment should be ashamed!
2- the first blow was struck in the canada half of SikSika confederacy in 1869. booze runners and wolf hunters from Montana set up shop. fort Whoop Up became the nucleus of many sad things. but alot of folks wisley avoided the dump.

Very good video, a million dollars, and your ancestors suffered like never before. Shameful, and all too common.
