blaydRnr, my apology to you for not clarifying that my post is really in response to the statement from that FN chief, which I read earlier. We all know that statement is quite an insult to those truly food-deprived people in the 3rd world. I am sorry to say that Canadians, even some FN people, are way too well fed and well provided to really know how other less fortunate people are suffering from true starvation. They should look at those pictures of emaciated children with nothing much left but skin & bones before they utter such silly statement.

I guess this is the fundimental question.  If we all want to be treated the same, why do we need treaties?

yah its comforting to know they won't starve.  afterall, its common knowledge that there's no nutritional value in pinks and chum. i just hope they can gather enough wood before the rainy season. it's really hard to smoke fish with wet wood.

how considerate of the government to give them special privileges... especially, since now a days,  bison is hard to come by.


   lol lol  wow,  the money they get from selling the fish should by them some great food!
