Some Ontario First Nations leaders are urging the federal government to take their treaty rights into account when implementing the harmonized sales tax (HST) in Ontario and exempt them completely from the new tax.

    I say we declare war on these "Nations" invade them (again) and make them part of Canada (again). That or simply reduce funding to the reserve back down to the level it was when the treaty's were made (like 200 bucks for the band a year).

    This whole First Nation issue in Canada is a joke. The Constitution of Canada never should have been signed when it gives exceptions simply based on race.

    From my experience with natives they all feel they should be (or are) exempt from taxes such as GST and HST but they have no problem charging it and collecting it.

    I say rip up the old treaties and make a new one.

    Option 1: Give the natives the land they currently hold in perpetuity. Set up border stations at all points of access, revoke their citizenship and treat them as any other "visitor" to Canada. End payments to the free-loaders. If they want to be sovereigns, let them have ALL the responsibility of a sovereign.

    Option 2: Join the rest of the nation and STFU.

    The US should do the same thing down here. Some tribes even issue their own license plates down here.

    Perfect and as my first order, I order you to attack the nearest "Nation" and claim it in the name of Canada

    Soon there going to be the only Canadian citizens allowed to own assault rifles without licenses, able to drive tanks on there reserves and allowed to tax Canadian citizens as a form of something to give back to them for what happened to there ancestors. Yes indeed. God knows why they should be happy being the only ones able to own casino's and make billions of dollars off of it. Money they can either be greedy with (which they are) or contribute back to there own kind. They get there own piece of land which acts as a area not bound to Canadian laws generally. Aboriginals coming out and causing trouble, stealing a car, etc. Being chased by police to drive in there reserve where the police cannot go.

    Than all of those free tax money they get, plus exemption from tax. The ability to come out of there little reserve shelter and get a job if they wanted. Doubt they would and they usually do not since there life is so comfy being given free money, tax free and a safety spot from law. Atleast regular Canadian law. I mean what person would be satisfied with that? Poor aboriginals who are treated like citizen royality.

    There just like Quebec sepratists. Just deny all there demands, let them protest and riot. Cut of all demands they were ever recieved that wasn't part of the original deal and if they threaten to seperate like Quebec does. Let them. They will soon be poor, starving and craving everything that is western culture and entertainment. When they come crawling back and realize just how special they were treated. We will make a new deal which generally states, stfu and all your land is Canadian soil now. You have to become a regular Canadian citizen. You no longer will be a strain on tax dollars.

    Than if Quebec sepratists do the same, do the same with them.
