What makes a Nation a Nation. Is British Columbia a Nation or is it part of the Nation of Canada. This is a critical part of the seditious behaviour of Indian co-conspirators of the final extermination plan of the Canadian Federal Government.

It became apparent in the Haisla Nation when the Village reserve government of Kitamaat determined to overrule the authority of the true owners of the land, the people and the Hereditary Chiefs. The Village Band council sued their very owner hereditary elders after they exposed the Band Councils fraudulent behaviour. A Councillor openly admitted to the fraud during a public meeting. Secret deals with BC Hydro, Premier Campbell and Alcan were all exposed by the Hereditary Chiefs. The lawsuit against them lasted for years and was paid for by monies provided by the Provincial and Federal Governments.

While all this was happening the Kitamaat Village Council, under Steve Wilson, the man who made all the secret deals, applied to the Federal Government to change their name to the Haisla Nation Council. INAC approved the request.

This was a blatant seditious move and in any other time, under any other governmental structure, would be called treason, punishable typically by a firing squad.

But today it has served to form a precedent. Now Reserve Village Governments across BC are seeing an opportunity to engender themselves with greater stature.

The traditional form of Government of the Northwest BC Indian Nations; the Haisla, Gitxsan, Tsimshian, Nisga’a, Wet’suwet’en etc, involve a unique matriarchal, matrilineal structure. The leadership is not an elected leadership, rather it is a selected leadership by the elder women of the clans/tribes.

It is this structure of independent governance the White settlers worked so diligently to destroy by abducting and kidnapping the children.

The Canadian government acknowledged the genocidal behaviours of previous generations and finally many Nations are beginning to rebuild and teach their children again. The languages are being re-taught, that which was forbidden and punished for uttering, and the traditions are being re-instated.

The apology of June 2008 was taking place at the same time the Canadian Government was beginning to allow the elected Kitamaat Village Government of Steve Wilson to abscond with the Hereditary authority over all the traditional lands. In 2011 the Indian Registrar wrote;

I am pleased to advise that your current band name change which had been made in the Indian Registry System has also been made in legal instruments where the former band name appeared.

And all of this transpired after a series of frauds and lies exposed the intense corruption within the Haisla Nation.

Although the Court decision is still under appeal by the Hereditary Chiefs the initial decision by the trail Judge exposed the fraud of the entire process. It even seriously threatens the validity of the Delgamuukw decision.

The Gitxsan and Wet’suwet’en peoples have suffered the same treason as has recently been exposed by the seditious and fraudulent behaviours of the GTS (Gitxsan Treaty Society) and the exclusive manner of the OW (Office of the Wet’suwet’en Chiefs).

The Tsimshian Nation is now enduring the same with the proposal for the Kitselas Village Council and the Kitsumkalum Village Councils to sign an agreement with the Provincial and Federal Governments excluding the rest of their Nation. Now they too desire to consider themselves independent National Governments. It would all be funny if it wasn’t such a serious affront to decency.

“We are a Tsimshian Village not a nation with treaty-making rights! And, we have our own chiefs and they're called Simoighets NOT ‘chief councillors’." wrote a Tsimshain Matriarch from the reserve village of Kitsumkalum.

Many of these elected Indian representatives are willing to accept money to raise their own personal standard of living without any regard to the Indian peoples and families who have suffered so dramatically for at least three generations.

The Band Councils and those who understand these issues can take back their true power, their Nations true authority, their actual land ownership, without selling out for money, by joining with organizations such as Idle No More.

Indian peoples from across Canada are now standing together as one in an attempt to regain their former glory that which all Europeans admired from the time they were introduced to the common European person. A strength of culture and dignity unparalleled anywhere.
