Step Up
Step up and help people when they need it. We use to be the sharing , caring people.as native people we help our brother out. Stand up for your rights , what do you fear? You have rights . Why do so many worry about there jobs , what about the way things are here you complain but say nothing i guess if you have a job that's all that matters. One day your going to wish you had.

I hear what you are saying. The residential schools really did a number on our people. I think our people are easily intimidated by authority figures. Sad to see that our leadership is not sensitive to this or they are using it to their advantage. When leaders empower the people they serve, they empower themselves.
ReplyDeleteThe future must look good from Bay Street.
ReplyDeleteI like this saying,The white people have the Mafia. we have chief and council.
ReplyDeleteWhat happen to the health center that was going to be built. That was in 2008? There is,nt any economic development going on in Rama.Do they even have money for development? People voted for a casino to have jobs that was the promise.
ReplyDeleteEvery dam one of them thats been in there since the casino are to blame for what has happen to all the money we once had. As soon as the money came then the pays went up and havent stoped with out the band members in put. This is not are ways.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous, People now say to me they wish they had,nt voted yes for a casino,But how could you not. i went to every meeting about the casino and they made it sound so good and that the casino would solve all are problems. There would be jobs for everyone, business ,for who ever wanted to start one. Homes for everyone.MONEY Well were just land lords now and seem to make money from leasing out are land so much for the Native own Native run casino.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone think that C&C could "screw us" regarding the Coldwater Landclaim money like we've been "screwed" with the Casino money?? I'm hoping they can't, but what does everyone else think?
ReplyDeleteLook at there past record
ReplyDeleteIts treatie money man, belongs to the people if not then we fight for it. But the thing is whats going on behinded close doors?
ReplyDeleteWe Rama Band members should hire our own lawyer for the upcoming landclaim referendum. Pretty bad when you can't have trust in your own C&C. I want someone there that can give legal advice if I can't understand exactly what I'm signing.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous We do have a Band member who is a lawyer, and works in the band office .
ReplyDeleteThe common theme or shall I say greed is people worrying about getting their "Rama Money". Have any of you stepped in the casino lately, the anwser is probably yes. About 80 percent of the band members are there blowing the money they receive then half of that 80 percent complain that they require assistance from Rama because they can't make ends meet and then complain that Rama won't help. WELL DON'T GO TO THE CASINO AND WASTE THAT MONEY.
ReplyDeleteI dont think 80% of people go to the casino how can you say that are you allways there?
ReplyDeleteNot everyone has money to go to the casino, what do you think every one has a job. And how do you no 80% go to the casino. Talking out of your ear.
ReplyDeleteThere,s not 80% gambling there 80% drinking.
