Blood Nation Chief Charles Weasel Head’s community honoured Prime Minister Stephen Harper with the name of “Chief Speaker” for delivering an apology on behalf of Canada to residential school survivors.
Weasel Head’s community, however has a large number of people were clients of David Blott’s law firm which is accused of fleecing residential school survivors.
Weasel Head spoke to APTN about the unfolding scandal and answered questions on whether he would rescind the honour bestowed on the prime minister.
He sounds illiterate and should not continue as the Chief of the great Blood Nation. I hope the people speak through their vote in their next election. I also hope the people select leaders who are capable of understanding the unique position First Nations have in Canada as the original people of the land and who could put together a complete cognitive sentence. It’s time the people get proper representation through leaders who are educated and understand the political game that the Feds are playing. We need a higher standard of living and it has to begin with able leaders who understand the true intent of the Government which is to fully abolish any rights and true claim to their land. It’s 2012 and I think that leaders need to know the sly cunning of the white man and protect First Nation sovereignty. The old uneducated leaders need to step down now and make way for younger, smarter, and more educated, decolonized leaders.
