Being Aboriginal is not an Occupation.

The definitions of 'Democracy' & 'Fascism' are available in any dictionary. The evidence is in place; statstics Cdn Gov reps utilize 2 evidence the 'necessity' of illegal fascist oppression; combined with acdemic; health & economic realities here; & in the World dictate the Equality of the Canadian Ndn as One in defense of Legal; Spirtual-ethical Canadians & Life is not only an available option; but a necessary obligation. Canadian Charter of Rights & Freedoms... Ndn... Act. <3 ~=)

[Blinddogjax]

I commend your efforts Brothers; Sisters; & Cuzzins. Especially those who have been willing 2 weave their way thru ignorant condescension; & illegal reality that is the misappropriation of personal finance; & structural fascism in violation of the very laws; in the very books; in the very language brought 2 us. Remember the good in all & accept that MY necessary stance is strongly related 2 my Original Irish; Finnish; Danish; & English Anglican Cdn bloodlines not only becuz I'm Namgis & Proud <3

[Blinddogjax]

Canada has Laws. Being a Patriotic; Original Cdn family with a long history protecting rights; laws & freedom; on all sides it makes me sick 2 think that our society would 'overlook' the sacrifices from all our families made 2 protect the development of our core beliefs. The Rights; Freedoms; Laws & 'Democracy' in Canada were NOT developed 2 oppress & restrict One distinct Cultural Group; least of which based upon their Legal Title; or Environmental; Socio-Economic Spiritual-Ethics. <3 <3 <3

[Blinddogjax]

In Canada; not only is this Gentleman forbidden Equality of Legal Protection under existing Cdn Law; but also excluded from the Democratic Governmental Progress; &/or Access by a 'closed party' structure... While he & others r expected 2 approach problems within restricted areas('rez'); intended 2 enable unbridled Resource extraction; & Resource Equity investments; as tho the results/consequences of on-going illegal fascist oppression were a 'mystery ill-ness' or; result of 'inferior genetics'.
