Canadian Indians have taken note of the progress achieved by their American cousins.


GINEW, MB, March 22 /PRNewswire/ - In a meeting March 14 and 15 in oil rich Alberta, Canadian Indians committed to closer ties with American Indians. This meeting included representatives of Treaties 1 - 11, which covers areas of four Canadian provinces. A delegation of Canadian Indians will attend the National Indian Gaming Association conference in San Diego April 11 to 13.

Further to this decision, a Canadian Chief is inviting dialogue with American politicians about the possibility of international sovereign recognition. Chief Terrance Nelson of the Roseau River Anishinabe First Nation (Ojibway) in Manitoba Canada says Canadian Indians, fed up with years of indifference from the Canadian Government, are ready to talk to the United States about lands and resources.

According to a Macleans magazine, (March 02, 2005) America is in deep financial trouble, "THE NUMBERs are staggering - a US$43 trillion hole in America's public finances that's getting worse every day..."

"America faces the cost of wars in Iraq and Afghanistan as well as the medical needs of millions of senior citizen baby boomers at a time when their deficit has hit an all time high of $412 billion," said Chief Nelson. "At three million barrels of oil a day, Canada is the largest supplier of oil to United States. Why should Americans pay Canada for oil when they can make a deal with the real owners and add northern Canada to United States territory" he said.

Chief Nelson says poverty stricken Canadian Indians don't have much to lose.
