    Got a link? wikipedia doesnt mention it.

    Canada exists because of land stolen from First Nations, and horrifically tried to erase First Nations in cruel assimilation systems.

    Canada before WW2 turned away boats of refugees. Famously the Komagata Maru. 1939s jewish refugee ship MS St. Louis was turned away at Halifax NS.

    Canada has learned much. Apologies include actions and laws.

    Tell more, links?

  2. Further on #jordansprinciple ...listen to Jordan River Anderson's father.
    Kids in need are suffering because the program was so mismanaged and those that shouldn't have got assistance for frivolous things, did.

    I agree with the Andersons 110%. I said this last year, that the program would bottom out if it kept being misused. It has strayed so far from what it was supposed to be, it's doing a major disservice to kids that really need the help.

  4. *White men speak with forked tongues*

    The federal government is blocking First Nations leaders in British Columbia from participating in consultations to address the badly backlogged Jordan's Principle children's program, CBC Indigenous has learned.

    The move came shortly before Prime Minister Justin Trudeau appeared at the Assembly of First Nations (AFN) chiefs' meeting in Ottawa last week, where he touted his past pledge to find "a new way of working together" that includes "welcoming you to be part of the conversations."

    However, federal lawyers had just withheld consent for the B.C.-based First Nations Leadership Council to take part in the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal-ordered talks, citing what the government called "practical reasons" — prompting some leaders to condemn the disconnect.

  9. Johnson has been #homeless since June 2023. The family lived in a teepee, camped at powwows, couch-surfed & spent a month at a #Surrey homeless shelter before granted temporary funding to stay at a hotel through #JordansPrinciple — federal funding co-ordinated by #Indigenous Services #Canada.

    Johnson is #Indigenous, from #Tsartlip Village, #Okanagan, Northern #Dene, #Han & Northern #Tutchone & Wolf Clan.

    She has been on the #BCHousing #WaitList for nearly 5 years.

  10. Past and continued treatment of her daughter Mercy through Jordan’s Principle is an indication that Indigenous Services Canada (ISC) is failing to put the needs of First Nations children first, says Crystal Jacobs.

    In May 2022, Jacobs began legal action in the Ontario Superior Court against ISC, which funds Jordan’s Principle. She is asking for $5.35 million for general and special damages.
