Multi-faceted issues complicate hunting rights

Page 6

Metis rights to hunt, trap and fish that have been denied them since Confederation may be protected as a result of new talks that are planned between the Manitoba Metis Federation and the province.

On Oct. 18, Metis federation president David Chartrand announced the new MMF Commission for the Metis Laws of the Hunt, along with a community consultation process that will contribute to developing new rules for resource harvesting. The findings drawn from the community meetings will prepare the Metis federation to negotiate terms and conditions with the province.

Get involved with youth

Dear Editor:

I feel shame for all my Native peoples of Canada. Shame on us for not volunteering our time, knowledge, monies and love to our youth. Not a hand is being offered to help and make a difference without government "beads" monies. Our national leaders complain and cry about receiving only $12 million to operate.

Does war make us equal in Canada?

Ten years ago I attended the funeral of my Uncle Jim who had been a soldier in the Second World War, and I found myself crying tears as big as golf balls. Mom cried too, but her grief was more understandable than mine.

Later she asked what had moved me. I had hardly known my uncle. I told her it was the portable stereo playing TAPS, and the sight of all those Indians dressed in uniform, and the idea that we got messed up in a war in the first place that was all too much for me to bear.

It all started with a cat. . .

Several months ago my girlfriend Dawn and I decided to get a kitten. She had never had one in her life and I thought the raising of a kitten together would be something fun to do. As many new pet owners often are, we were stumped for an adequate name. We wanted it to be a wonderful and magnificent title, worthy of a pet of ours. But nothing immediately came to mind.
