You really wanna know...
Why aboriginal negotiations are... 'always in the shitter'... so to speak?
On Jan. 30, two plainclothes officers with the OPP's Major Event Liaison Team arrived at the Thurlow Aggregates quarry on Deseronto Road and asked to speak with protest organizers.Must be some kind of "root causes" thing, huh?
They were told to return to the site after dark - around 8 p.m. - for a meeting with "elders", according to police.
Speaking to The Intelligencer shortly after the incident, Sgt. Kristine Rae, spokeswoman for Eastern Region OPP headquarters, said when the officers approached they were "confronted by some of the people in attendance and assaulted."
There was the same sort of anarchy down in Caledonia. Try as he might, even native apologist cum negotiator David Peterson couldn't really paint the process in a flattering light.
“There's a constant dynamic inside the place; it's like a swirling cauldron,” said David Peterson, the former Ontario premier who negotiated the removal of the blockade of two main roads in Caledonia.Yeah... that's gonna work.
“Nobody answers to anybody. They all answer to each other."

LAST WORD: A bottomless pit of malfeasance

My ancestor who came to New France in the 1690s called 'em savages... seems not much has changed in the intervening three centuries. Racist comment? Perhaps. I just wonder why aboriginals get away with stuff that would get a white man put in jail lickety-split. Perhaps if the aboriginals hitched themselves up by the bootstraps and stopped living off welfare, they'd be too busy being successful instead of angry and "dispossessed"

once again anon, this isn't about race... it's about culture... more specifically a culture of dependancy.
to think otherwise is just plain stupid.
