Good morning! Politics! So! In 1956 Indian Policy dictated that if one living on the rez was non status - they had to move off reserve. My birth mother lost her status because she had married a Metis man and lost her status.As we know that was discrimination and what comes forth is of course Bill C-31. They (Indian Affairs) took her to court - and she was told to get off reserve (but she refused!) and : They (Indian Affairs) denied her basic needs such as food - clothing etc to her and her children (myself & siblings). POLICIES havent changed much since then! Old Childrens Aid Society came and took us away.... Old man - the late Elder Peter OChiese always said - INDIAN ACT POLICY = tell Indian how to act! Well I had to rant. Damn federal government! Have a great day!! lol....☺
