Wet'suwet'en pushed between rock and very hard place

​Wet'suwet'en Pushed Between Rock and Very Hard Place

... but some feel there are worse evils than being poor.

CBC: At public meeting in Houston B.C., community members explain their support for the project

The CBC left out a word: "some". Some community members support the pipeline project.

CBC: Who is opposed?
  • Opposition to the pipeline is being mounted by the majority of Wet'suwet'en hereditary chiefs. The clan chiefs have said that despite the agreements signed by the nation's band councils, the project needs the chiefs' authorization to proceed.

I probably have no business saying this, but it seems very sad to me that some band members are putting financial gain ahead of their band's traditional values. Meanwhile, outsiders are expressing support for the hereditary chiefs:

Facebook: Worldwide Solidarity with Wet’suwet’en [land defenders]
  • After the brutal raid by Canadian federal cops on Wet’suwet’en land defenders, stopping a fracked gas pipeline, solidarity actions are under way in over 60 cities around the world.

I don't know if I should even be allowed an opinion on this matter, but it seems to me that a proper vote needs to be taken among the people directly affected, and the "worldwide" choosing of sides should cease and desist.

I'm bothered particularly by the "It's Going Down" lot. In my opinion, Marion Tiljoe Shepherd, despite the fact that she has a personal profit interest in the pipeline, is right when she says "it's none of their business". CBC

She's also quite right that the offsite events are organized by professionals.  "It's Going Down" has its fingers in a lot of pies, and that smacks of Soros business to me, and/or others like him.  Sow division, gain control is their modus operandus.

If First Nations people of Canada become divided amongst themselves, the government will feel, has indeed felt, perfectly justified in using force, and in ultimately legislating new "agreements" so that, eventually, there will be no "Native problem" at all.

I wrote in  May 2019:
  • Pierre Trudeau was so adamant that Canada's first peoples should be integrated into the general population that even though the Indian Act was a thorn in their sides, it seemed safer than being treated as ordinary Canadians who don't have a history of being trod upon by "white" Europeans.

If you read the rest of what I wrote in that section, you may get a clue as to why fomenting division amongst First Nations peoples may well still be considered the path to ending the "Native problem" entirely. Like father, like son?  Like Jesus Himself, who "came to bring division" for the greater good?

The RCMP, especially, need to go home and focus on cleaning up their own act:

YYC: Serving and Protecting Whom?

Then the people directly affected need to tell "It's Going Down" thanks very much but we can take it from here -- and sit down in good faith with their own people to thrash out the issue among themselves, then take a vote and honour the outcome. That way, at least the government will not have gained additional power over their existence.

They are grownups who should be prepared to honour the majority wishes, without coercion of any kind, and to live with the consequences.

But what do I know?  I'm of Irish descent, a people known for their blarney.  Nobody takes us seriously, though this may be a last chance for each of the Wet'suwet'en to honestly examine their own motives, to truly put first the long-term welfare of their brothers and sisters and their Mother Earth, and, "working as one"*, tell everybody else to get lost.

Wet'suwet'en Website

* The Hereditary Chiefs reiterate their mission: “We are proud, progressive Wet’suwet’en dedicated to the preservation and enhancement of our culture, traditions and territories; working as one for the betterment of all”.

I doubt very much that you're the worst, Chycho. You sure are a good math teacher though. You seem more animated when you're teaching, as if you're really having a good time.

I didn't get to see it all because of a long distance phone call from my favourite cousin. I probably wouldn't have understood half of it anyway. If I can balance my bank book I'm happy. But you're doing a really good thing there!

Thanks, Corinne. I definitely do enjoy teaching math, I'm not sure why really, it just is what it is and I'm sort of rolling with it :)
