Not just where they were found or told to settle. The AFN really has no claim to the territories granted it by the Provinces. It's all Aboriginal and banning most Aboriginals from the territory the AFN claims hurts even more. The AFN represents very few Aboriginals. Even the original band lists have been dramatically decreased. Majority Aboriginals have been disenfranchised by the AFN and live off reserve because of that. We need to stop forcing people to deal with AFN when the AFN really doesn't represent majority Aboriginals. There is no vote either, like Provincial Premiers.
