Mohawks Aren't Indigenous To The Territories They Claim

They are a recent colony.  The actual Indigenous peoples need to be consulted just as these are a crowns lands and waters.  We need national Indigenous consultations before Indigenous peoples are barred from lands and seas and resources by The AFN or Mohawks or crowns.


This settlement is as illegal as all the other AFN crowns grants.

AFN Evictions - Nothing New, Just In The Open

The crowns lands and seas grants are going to the AFN and majority Aboriginals are not part of the AFN.  The crowns should ask for Aboriginal input from Aboriginals and not from the AFN - who claims peoples and lands and seas, wrongly and bars majority Aboriginals from these.  The input should be national and not from just one province or AFN affiliate or INM faction.


No one should be surprised.

AFN and NDP INM Faction Treaties

The AFN doesn't control the destiny of majority Aboriginals and has barred Aboriginals fromlands and seas resources and other uses.  The Premier needs to make a national call when she is referring to Aboriginals, not just Alberta.

More AFN Excuses For Disenfranchising Indigenous Peoples

Well, better than Band lists, lets check to see if these AFNs are Indigenous at all.  Most aren't.  This is another colonial agreement like the Methodist colony banishing some who wouldn't go along or Catholic colonies  marrying the wrong persons.  AFN has gone through confederation after disenfranchising most Aboriginals and seizing land and lands grants from the Crowns.  AFN territoriality knows no limits and bans most Aboriginals from the lands and seas resource use, so, following on the AFN confederation nationalism, we should allow a national Aboriginal vote on all these issues.  The AFN might be removed........

AFN Social Assistance, B.C. - Nonreporting? Fraud?

Provinces may receive federal funding for income supports for unemployed or disabled and most Provinces allow Aboriginals to go through this process.  Apparently, in B.C., the AFN does not allow this or the persons seeking assistance are asked to go to the AFN.  Like B.C. Aboriginal healthcare, the AFN apparently had taken over social assistance also and AFN management of any Aboriginal programs, whether they be healthcare, housing income supports and disabilities, has been, at the best, fraudulent and unreported back to stakeholders, like the Crowns.   Aboriginals, wherever they choose to live, are better off with Crown management rather than the AFN middlemen seeking cash, funding and employment from Crown programs created to assist Aboriginals.  The third party should not have any AFN affiliation for very obvious reasons, but the benefits should go directly to Aboriginals pockets, regardless of where they live, cutting out middlemen who, often, take about half  the benefits meant for Aboriginals pockets.


Income supports, whether they be housing or disability and regardless of providers or resource use payments, should reflect the median wage or value of usage and be direct to each Aboriginal pocket.

Aboriginals Are Not Contained By Provincial Crowns and Boundaries

Cultivation Hunter Gather

Clams used to be all over North America, like Salmon, they were freshwater too.  Cultivating marine clams a thousand years ago isn't uncommon.  Any new colony would try cultivation.  This is claiming a resource that is already used and has been used for tens of thousands of years.  There were already Indigenous persons using these resources and, claimed or not, would continue to use them. 


Hunting is almost the same as utilizing free ranging resources.  This article shows the corralling and containing of free ranging food resources 9,000+ years ago.

Maybe consultations with Indigenous peoples, not the AFN are in order:

AFN Doesn't Represent Majority Aboriginals

AFN has disenfranchised most Aboriginals, but claims representation without band lists accounting and voting.  AFN must allow Aboriginals to participate in resource allocation by provinces and the federal government.  Direct benefits to each and every Aboriginal are the only way to rectify AFN's claims and thefts.  AFN is a third party.  AFN also has a history of not accounting for resource allocation and outright theft of funds meant for Aboriginals from the provinces and federal government.


Why can't we take the AFN to court?
