-=> Quoting George Pope to All <=- GP> So PM Martin was doing some pre-campaign visiting of the various GP> Native peoples, including meeting with the chief of Ontario's biggest GP> tribe. GP> He spoke for an hour, expounding on his oh-so-wonderful track record GP> WRT land claim negotiations, and how he fully supports the Natives in GP> all their claims, and how he will continue to support them in the GP> coming years. GP> Afterwards, one of the braves presented Martin with a certificate that GP> gave him an official Indian name of "Walking Eagle" -- Martin was GP> ecstatic, and proudly showed it off to the media members who met him GP> as he was returning to his office. GP> One of the reporters was curious, so he went back to the reservation GP> and asked them about the name, what's the real meaning of "Walking GP> Eagle" (for he knew that the names were largely symbolic." GP> The tribal secretary answered him, "Well, it refers to when an eagle GP> gets too constipated to fly." I'll betcha that "Walking Eagle" never heard the word "Ipperwash" uttered while he was meeting with the First Nation people. I also bet that he was never in Ipperwash as an Army Cadet when he was a teen either. ___ Blue Wave/DOS v2.30 --- Platinum Xpress/Win/WINServer v3.0pr5* Origin: The Offspring BBS, Orleans, Ontario CANADA (1:249/201) SEEN-BY: 633/267 270 5030/786 @PATH: 249/201 303 261/38 123/500 106/2000 633/267 |
