   Harper’s negligence of the F.N. in northern Ontario, was horrible. When the people had to call in the U.N. and the Red Cross stepped in…This is a crime against humanity. That tiny F.N. baby that died of pneumonia, was pure negligence of Harper’s health care, for the F.N. The one and only thing out of all of this. We have been made aware of just how badly the F.N. people have been suffering, this out and out abuse.

   The F.N. deserve warm comfortable homes, with indoor plumbing. Their children deserve good, decent schools. Their education has to be looked very closely at. F.N. children all deserve to go on to a higher education, the same way our kids do. I was horrified, at the number of the F.N. young people committing suicide. That is truly heartbreaking, they have no hope for a better life. I can’t even imagine the sorrow of the parents.

   Over 80% of the BC citizens, are supporting the F.N….To stop the Enbridge pipeline and the dirty oil tankers. A spill from either one, would seriously affect the food sources of the F.N. It’s bad enough, Campbell thieved and sold our rivers. The dams have destroyed important salmon runs. The filthy diseased fish farms, are killing off the wild salmon, as well. Salmon is a staple for the F.N. to feed their family’s. They also rely on the sea for food.

   I can’t wrap my mind around. Harper could care less about destroying the F.N. hunting grounds, and their fishing, needed for food. Their clean drinking water gets poisoned. All of that for, just plain government greed.

   The F.N. don’t deserve our hate. They deserve our help. I sign petitions for them, I pass their messages along to everyone I know, and ask them to pass it along to others, and ask everyone to sign their petitions. I hope many others, to do the same.

   I support the First Nation’s communities in saying “NO” to the Enbridge Gateline Pipeline through their lands. This pipeline will effect everyone, as well as the land and other lifeforms.

   Who cares?
   If First Nations can’t get on board with the new global economy then they can wither away on the sidelines. Modern economy doesn’t care about race or creed or religion, it cares about value. Pipelines add value. They bring a valued resource to a global market. First Nations are dreaming if they believe they can exist on a planet where they provide no value. American First Nations are in way better shape than Canadians, due in large part to the US Government telling them to be valuable contributors to the community, or go live in a cave. Canadian First Nations prefer the cave. Bravo to Enbridge for trying to bring value and wealth to Alberta. Every taxpayer should support every effort to maximize value on the land. Say “NO” to crybaby First Nations.

     I approved the above comments that came as anonymous to the public, but not so anonymous to us. This post was made from the following web address and poses the following question, what is their link to all of this? Why are they so brutally uncaring about the plight of aboriginals in Canada.
     Here is the home address of that writer. Q9 Networks
     Let this be a warning to other businesses who try this same trick.

     Please also be aware of this companies conection to Enbridge.

   I’m thinking that “caucasian taxpaying person” is spreading his hate on a work computer. We should pass it on to his/her employer……

     Or it could be that Q9 Networks launders comments from companies (or governments) that don’t want to be recognized.

   (Taken from commenter above, because it is simply and well written:)

   Further, thank you for standing up and speaking your truth. I recognise that your choice to stand up is not for me, but because it represents my opinion, I am most grateful and I stand behind you in this fight.
