Ahhh, fer crying out loud pav, threats? FYI... The guy is twice yer size. Heh heh Best be careful when calling people out.

Seriously speaking though, we won't be havin' threats here in the sandbox.

Wow, you take 3 absolutely disjointed articles and piece them together to supposedly substantiate your claims. Lets looks at them.
OK, so you found a boilerplate lease agreement for oil/gas surface rights. Keep in mind that farmers have title to their land. So how does this work with First Nations in Canada? Who owns the land? Who would have the right to sign the lease? Do such leases already exist in Canada for such things?

BBC article is about Obama making a pledge (politicians do that, you know) to native americans. Where does Harper come into this article? We have public health care which Obama doesn't, so should he be taking pointers from Harper? By the way, how is that public health care thing going for Obama right now?

The last link is an article in which the Chiefs, including the highly respected, credibly, loved and all around nice guy, Terry Nelson, basically threaten "acts of agression" which may disrupt the pipeline to the US. Refer to the line “We want to raise American awareness that this is not a Canadian domestic issue but a homeland security issue for the U.S.,” Hudson said. “A disruption of Canadian oil supply would have a devastating impact on the U.S. economy.” If that isn't a threat, what is?

Please find my post which insulted to your integrity. I don't even know you, so how could I comment on your integrity.

But be sure that I have no respect for your knowledge or your ability to debate , as demonstrated above.
You continue to turn the debate/discussion into a series of whines and musings and personal comments. Perhaps you should get some balls and present a real case.

Keep in mind the topic behind this thread. Unpaid legal fees, but the funds were used for this trip to DC. Your turn to make more baseless statements and hurl a few personal insults.

I chose just to ignore that. Its Saturday night and we've all been drinking.

And no i was not drinking and the article about health care was to show he is listening to them and is sympathetic to their problems , native Americans that is .
The lease arrangement is available in Canada you can not just put up what ever you want on Farmers land , with out compensating them . Why should you be able top do it to a Native with out compensation .
And the last link shows how serious they are about it . then maybe you Army boys will have to quell that . There is no use with you for you refuse to see beyond that which is in front of your face .

Again, more personal shots. But thats easier than anwering the question as to where is this Native land that you speak of?

But at least we agree that the link merely shows that they are threatening.

BTW, are you related to Terry Nelson? Just wondering why you're sticking up for him.

So what I infer from 1 of these articles, is 20 Chiefs flew to Washington, without any advance booking, stayed for 3 weeks at a posh $675 a night room, and then walked down Pennsylvania Avenue, with no press coverage, and then.............. drum roll, met for 20 minutes with 2 parking lot attendants, posing as Obana's Indian advisors! So lame and so typical of money well spent.
As good as the Aboriginal's complaining that the Olympic torch run people did not stop to talk to them about aboriginal woman (hookers) missing in Manitoba!
Someone has to help organize this worthwhile group! These reports get me so angry at the waste of resources with no return at all! Just a laughing stock of very inefficient results.
Could this be because there are 400 Chiefs? cann't they join some union of chiefs? Is there such an organization? Where the hell are they? Pavola, why the discord? Where is the planning?

Post a link please?
