    What gives them the right to do this? No other group could get away with any kind of blockade.

    Rights are good, but warm ass is better. Ass care in winter, rights in spring, summer and autumn.

    Good thing these bully tactics have resulting in such great change for the Native community over the last 20 years.

    The differences these types of protests have had are just mind-blowing. :roll:

    Can`t blockades be made to be two way? Make it so those pricks can`t use Canadian roads to leave the rez

    People tried that in Pemberton. The RCMP broke it up right quick. Seems it's illegal to block a highway. For 2nd Nations, anyway.

    It`d be interesting to see the financial facts on the reserves that the missing women came from. How many of them came from reserves where the chief and council were embezzling, and most of the rank and file rezidents weren`t seeing the funds, programs and services meant to assist them?

    Someone in a government office somewhere will toss them a few extra cheques and they'll go away. Always worked in the past, always will work in the future.
