First Nations chiefs confront Poilievre on his priorities when it comes to Indigenous issues

- Following a speech from Pierre Poilievre at the annual Assembly of First Nations (AFN) on Tuesday in Montreal, Que., multiple First Nations chiefs called out the Canadian Conservative Party leader for not acknowledging certain issues in his speech.
In his opening remarks, Poilievre critiquing what he called the federal government’s “paternalistic” management of First Nations people in his speech - while vowing economic opportunity as a path to reconciliation.
As noted by audience members, however, Poilievre forgot to acknowledge Indigenous veterans and the LGBTQ2 community. Additionally, he was criticized for not speaking out residential school survivors, the longstanding issue of murdered or missing Indigenous women and girls, and even climate change.
By several chiefs, Poilievre was also advised to become more educated on Indigenous matters, too, if he hopes to become Canada’s next prime minister and wants to further the path of reconciliation with First Nations Canadians.

In your 3 minute speech you didn’t speak about all 53 things I wanted you to mention… how dare you!!!
It doesn't matter natives don't like steel toe boots😅😅😅
No matter what Pierre says or does, it will never be good enough. There are so many grievances and sub grievances that it would take a week of sundays to address them all in one speech. The Chief's are a big part of the problem. Mismanagement and corruption are no strangers..
The money to reserves go straight to the chief and there is nothing saying the chief has to spend any of that money on the reserve or its people..
@kurtperner4665 on many reserves, the Chief and his or her family get all the financial benefits, big house, snowmobiles, water skis atvs, and boats. While so many live in squalor and poverty. Any attempts to audit have been rejected, of course. Not one dime of taxpayers' money should be given until a proper job of accounting is done. Whether they like it or not.
@@rontyler1234 Agree
The people on reserves that live in poverty and hardship
Should have stayed in school, get a job and work for life. Not want a hand out from the chief.
The indigenous are just as corrupt.
"We endured the worst 10 years ever under the Harper Conservative government".
Translation: He tried to make people accountable and did not give in and pander to false accusations.
Same 10 years when the CAD dollar was stronger than the USD haha, if someone still suffered during that time was due to one of two reasons: they suck at money or they were not Canadian citizens.
@@tylerdurden8378 literally everyone was doing fine under harper, anyone young go ask your parents if they even thought about politics when he was in, they didnt because everything was running fine
@@Unknown-us3iiDude, CAN surpassing USD was a blip here and there - never a lasting change. You make it sound like it hit and stayed above for a meaningful amount of time, but it never did. CAN has pretty much always been worth roughly 75% of USD. Check your stats.
@@piotrkosztirko438 stats say CAD was stronger than USD during that time period, and when you say "You make it sound like" that's YOUR opinion mate, if you wanna know what I think I'm right here for you to ask... I don't care if it was one second or one year, CAD was stronger than USD at that time period, it is a fact just like today at 4:30pm it was 4:30pm...
@Unknown-us3ii I'm happy to hear that you're so devoted to theory and facts ... But let's not forget the practical dimension. The loonie being above the US dollar for 1 second makes no practical difference (for example).
And while we're on the topic: before he was elected as Prime Minister, Harper applied to MRU in Calgary, AB to lecture in the Econ department. He wasn't hired because of his lack of knowledge, and yet he went on to get elected as PM on the basis of his supposed "fiscal policy" (a Conservative catch phrase that's as empty [meaningless] as your assertion above). So ... Thanks for the laugh 🙂

“An apology without money”
Says it all doesn’t it?
Indigenous need to get some priorities and take some responsibility for themselves.
If Ottawa turns $$$ taps off and gives First Nation's and Indigenous what they have been wanting for decades, to fully govern themselves, that possibly scares the crap out of a few Indigenous individuals that know their local peoples councils and their members, will screw it up. 😢😢
@@mickeyandres2651 you should read a book for the first time.
personal responsibility is utterly foreign to native. They've been living off grievance handouts since Canada was formed. How long are Canadians expected to pay for these people?
Greed.

She should've confronted him on real isses, for instance, how he wants the Indian act abolished, that's a real issue to speak on, instead she speaks on non issues. She is likely so fooled that she believes the abolishment of the Indian act would be a good thing
Want to switch lifestyles? If it is as simple as stop crying and start trying, let's take all your wealth and status and swap your lifestyle with a 20-year old Indigenous kid growing up on a remote Reserve. See how you do. Get crackin' bud and don't drink alcohol or get depressed. Just work hard and pull yourself up by your bootstraps.
@@coolioso808 Sounds like a great start !
@@natewilliams2412 Oh good, so you'll sign up to take on the challenge? Shall we find a swap mate on remote Reserve that will switch with you and we can film it as a reality show to show you really mean it and aren't just being bombastic? Then, when you successfully prove the haters wrong, you show that you can go from rags to riches with hard work and determination no matter what lifestyle or social circumstance you've been put it, you'll write a book about it, it'll go international best seller and you'll be beloved by many. You can then easily run for leadership of a party, rally the troops, win the election and be Prime Minister that Canada that the people can be proud of. Do it, bud! If you believe you can do it, nobody can stop you.
Give them the reins and let them manage so they are are accountable for themselves...after billions of $$ of investment indigenous peoples still angry. Stop the handouts! Go Pierre🇨🇦

I live beside the Tyendinaga Territories. I’ve worked for a few families that own most of the business on the reserve. Eight billionaires live on that reserve, and over 200 people make more than 10 million annually. And well over 500 people make over a million annually. All tax-free. They have the most affluent people within a 100-km radius as a community. There is more money in freezers in Tyendinaga than in the province of Ontario. Things seemed to have worked out for them. Name a Chief that doesn't steal government money from their reserve... name one.
Why don’t the First Nations people run for office?
They won't because that involves ........work.....oh I said it
Somebody needed to say it. @@Ashoud_Anobetah
Everyone know it.
Well most of our chiefs are just as bad as the government a lot of them embezzle funds and take unnecessary trips to smuggle drugs into the community as well. This isn’t news to anyone that lives on reserve.
Because they are oppressed and get no representation.
He's giving them a real way out, and all they can do is beg a little more....
It's what they're used to and have no intention of changing.
Beg for more alcohol
@@Vincent-vn7xo Hardly an FN specific issue.
Tired of them playing the victim card.
@@Vincent-vn7xoJesus you do realize that indigenous people aren’t the only people struggling with alcohol right lol
After years of hearing the same rhetoric from native communities, I am coming to the realization that they, as a people, are no different than the Panda bear.
How about showing the video of the Liberal minister getting truly embarrassed and absolutely being ripped apart. It just shows how biased your news is. So so sad. Your just losing more trust.
That First Lady was definitely a liberal believer. He doesn’t need to be educated he is quite aware of what the indigenous communities need.

Very telling you focus on gays and not anything else she said.
@@LalaWatches how so?
Never happy...
Just because he didn't mention anything about various issues, doesn't mean he doesn't know about them.
or maybe it actually does?
he never talks about any of those things
exactly! like these people need to stop acting so stupid 😂
Yeah, he knows about them, he knows how he'll ignore the issues he doesn't care about if he gets into power. Harper sucked as PM for Indigenous people and Pierre would be bad too. Pierre worked under Haper as Housing Minister. You know how much social housing he added? ZERO. Yep, and now he's a millionaire partly from being involved in private real estate speculation. You think he's gonna care about Indigenous people having housing as a right, backed by Federal funding, if needed? He wouldn't even do that for white Canadians when he had the power to.
@@MsKorm Conservatives are historically bad at addressing poor and working class issues. Period. But mainstream political parties across the boards aren't great either, mostly paying lip service. Look at the policies for which ones are most progressive and then push them to be even better than that because they aren't set up to help us, they are influenced by big money.
New systems are needed if we want a healthy, sustainable future.
Why do they think they're entitled to so much of our tax money while they contribute nothing to the rest of the country?
They don't.
@@FNWild Yeah... They don't contribute anything to the rest of the country, so why do they think they're entitled to billions of dollars of taxpayer money via the racist redistribution of wealth based on their skin tone?
@@FNWild If they don't think they're entitled to it, why do they keep demanding it?
@@FNWild you just heard them doing it.
You are speaking of the MPs, like Pierre, making upwards of $180,000 a year, right? They make $100,000 more than the average Canadian worker including nurses, construction workers, truckers and food service workers. Clearly, Pierre, fiscal conservative that he is would call for a big cut to those bloated salaries out of principle of them making way too much more than real hard working Canadians, right?
They "endured the worst 10 years ever under the Harper government"? Things were better when the residential schools were running? Out of the 4 centuries that Europeans have had contact with the indigenous and the century and a half Canada has existed, the Harper government was the worst thing that ever happened to them...?
PP was a part of that he also help shut down the Veteran Centers and people think he give a F about them also people should look up what they did to CCP people should just do their homework then they would know all they need to know about the Conservative
Its absurd. Forever victims for forever money.
during their lives obviously……….
@@highmedic2351 She specifically used the word ever. Plus, she looks to be older than 27 and the residential schools were shut down in 1997 so even then how could she say the Harper government was the worst time in their lives?
@@randomhandle253 in their lives ever
I thought he gave a really good speech and said some very important things, but they still manage to be upset because he didn’t talk about certain things. He didn’t have very much time to bring a lot of it up and I thought he did very well for them to be ignorant and talk about the fact that he didn’t talk about missing and murdered and women and they turn their back on him. That’s the most ignorant thing That they could’ve ever done
I’m sure they have a lot of issues, but I thought he did very well and covering a lot of them
bla bla bla first nations wants more money bla bla bla
Stop giving them tax credits to have more children other people have to raise
Abolish the Indian Act! Treat indigenous people the same way everyone else gets treated. It's called "equal treatment". If they can't make a life for themselves in one of the richest countries on earth without a handout, it's on them!
Yeah they've been freeloading for far too long. They're treated like children, time for them to grow up ;)
They were living like savages before we built cities, dams, all types of things they were avoiding because "but Meh TRIIIBE!"
Are they allowed to buy land?
@@Wack373 Of course they're allowed to buy land. They're allowed to do anything all other Canadians are allowed to do.

As a Métis Canadian, I have to admit, the "an apology without money" comment I think succinctly emblemizes a lot of issues. There are too many issues with it for me to unpack here, but I'm certain others will agree with me. Part of my family was rendered homeless and desitute by WW2, in which bombs and soldiers killed members of my family and permanently altered our families fortunes. We don't get a payout. I wouldn't even want one. I would feel dishonored to be exploiting my families mostly dead history to enrich myself or to be claiming I'm entitled to something I'm not. I think that one statement will not be taken well by many Canadians, particularly because this country is largely inhabited by people from all over the world who came here specifically to escape unfair death and tragedy.
Why should taxpayers keep funding this perpetual blame on the first settlers that tried to lift them out of poverty and Providing education?...
@@Ashoud_Anobetah The "Sixties Scoop" policies are only being fixed now, and the last Residential School was only closed in the 90's. I'm only in my 30's and I was part of the policy of specifically adopting indigenous babies to non-indigenous families.
So, what’s the fix? What do you want and need to heal?
@@Ironknuckle100 For everyone to shut up and go back to being awesome.
Do the history of what has happened from the beginning. People are all driven by greed its gross. I work on site and I pay taxes and am proud of my culture, past and ancestors. The government makes money whenever they help the natives.
Like dealing with ignorant children telling their parents to educate themselves while getting bigger and bigger allowances.
That's not my father, and neither is that priest.
@@FNWild cool.
@@FNWild Yet they pay for your education and exempt you from taxes along with multiple other benifits. Which is fine; what do you expect though. There's already been compensation sent out to the each victim of residential schools along with the aboriginal government. Don't get me wrong it was a horrible injustice , but the 𝘢𝘣𝘶𝘴𝘦 that went on in said schools was illegal none the less and wasn't mandated by the government an ROC either . and yet what more can be done at do at this point about it. Its been 30 yrs since the last one shut down.
down in the southern states the there where blacks that where still in peonage up until the 1940's- 1950's, which was also illegal activity. Its not brought up at every rally down there nor where any of them recompansated victims.
Why dwell on the past?

Stop rewarding them to have more children via tax credits while those working get little
Pay your taxes too
Actually, as well as factually, the crown hasn't paid their full annuities, which is contractually obligated per the Treaties, to certain First Nations people across Canada. There are many FN lawsuits against the crown as this reply is being posted.
@@MsKorm I said "annuities" and not "taxes" those are two different things. You are not making any sense, please reframe your answer.
@@joemacdonald6312 Correct. Also, for the original poster, I am not on a rez and I do pay taxes. On a rez, I also pay taxes - to the first nation I'm interacting with. They're treatied nations, why would I have to pay Canadian taxes when I'm on another nation's (treatied with Canada) land?
Stop having more children for tax credits while those working get little. These people don’t contribute
@@UniteChristians-p8k So, you believe that First Nations women have children just for the tax credits? Moreover, are there non-indigenous women living in Canada who have 2 children or more and are getting tax credits? Why did you not mention them and only generalized First Nations women?
He didn't mention that zero graves have been found, and he didn't mention 83 churches destroyed by indigenous groups. He also didn't mention the non apology in the kalona BC mass grave lie that never was.

Harper passed legislation of accountability. Band Councils/Chiefs HAD TO show the government where the money went & how it was spent. Trudeau being the ECONOMIC genius he isn’t, REPEALED this legislation!
An in-depth audit of the books MUST BE done! They are NEVER satisfied & ALWAYS want more!
They REFUSE to let go of the past, yet want to be treated as equals. They NEED to understand that the PAST IS PAST & MOVE FORWARD!!
If I was PM, I’d tell them it’s already been dealt with & it’s done.
They exist with the Misconception that they are MORE IMPORTANT & SPECIAL than any other human on this earth! WRONG!!!!
Go back to 2013. Kwikwetlem FN chief Ron Giesbrecht charged nearly 1 MILLION for his 'services' to the 81 member band. No skills or education is required to be a chief or councilor. It made the news so, it's not a secret.
I'll preface this that I'm indigenous and have my own grievances about my band not having anything available to me as an off-reserve member, and having serious problems contacting them. That being said, the money comes from a resource-sharing account that comes from the extraction of resources on treatied territory. Why would one nation audit another nation about their half of the resources which they all agreed to in a treaty?
Your entire comment is a "misconception"! First of all, the very same CONSERVATIVES that want an audit of Indigenous, regarding money that is LEGALLY THEIRS, refuse to prove to the Federal government that they're properly spending health transfers, housing transfers, and infrastructure transfers!
Furthermore, the money given to Indigenous is a result of "TREATIES" signed by our government, and their leaders! It is a LEGAL OBLIGATION, not a hand out as you people always want to portray! In fact, I'm pretty sure that ALL governments have lost EVERY single court case surrounding these treaties, these LEGAL OBLIGATIONS!!
D'accord! Agreed! 🇨🇦💔🇨🇦
Harper needed to put Canada before Israeli Jewish interests in the Middle East. Israel owes the west trillions of dollars
The missing and murdered woman is a indigenous issue as 86% are committed by indigenous persons also the same cases are solved the same rate as non indigenous cases they are not dismissed by police.
That just...isn't true? We had a whole multi-million dollar inquiry into the murders and disappearances. Just do a little work and read the report man. A serial killer was sentenced to life in prison to day literally targeted Indigenous women because their deaths often go unreported and uninvestigated, it was part of his MO.

Nice bias in the title global.
Tired of this chronic victimhood and endless payouts for real and percived human rights violations. Aboriginals have more opportunities then the working poor immigrants like my parents who struggled to support their families by working hard for poor wages and paying taxes of which went to endless social systems that they could never access. The last of many payouts were about $1,500,000,000.00 dollars for things done 3 to 15 generations ago.
That would be the thieving Castreau/NDP clowns who kept First Nations on idle for decades 💯
Be happy they had somewhere to run.
Agree
Your argument is not completely sound. I'll provide some information which can be accessed online and with some reading at the Ontario and Canadian government websites, for over 173 years the Crown has failed to increase the contractually obligated $4 per year annuities to certain First Nations as stated in certain First Nation Treaties throughout Canada, especially when the Crown and provinces made billions since that time from natural resources such as timber and precious metals. When fellow Canadians are not paid what they are legally owed and take it to court, why can't First Nations do the same?
@@MsKorm How am I a "Chronic victim"? Also, my parents were born and raised in Canada.
there is no climate change crisis, there is a lack of management to all issues
That first woman who spoke needs to educate herself. Climate change has been addressed by Poilievre many times. She must be a liberal follower.
Here are some facts you may not know. Canada’s carbon-tax began in 2007 when Alberta's majority PC gov't created a carbon levy. In 2008 the Harper gov't (including Poilievre) called carbon trading a “key part” of their emissions plan and campaigned on a cap and trade system. But now in campaign mode, they want you to forget that this was their idea so they can blame Trudeau. Non-partisan economists agree that the carbon rebate is the most cost effective solution to reducing emissions and address climate change, and just one tool of many that need to be deployed. JT has asked for alternative solutions. The Cons say "Sell more LNG, it's Common Sense." But that's insane! The world has to get off fossil fuels now. Big Oil has been stalling reduction and pushing growth for 50 years, but the weaning period is over. How much will groceries cost after mega-drought arrives and everything cooks under heat-domes? How much will housing cost when the houses burn down from uncontrollable wildfires and are flooded and flattened by monster hurricanes? Can't you see that worrying about pennies today (3 cents/L) will not take care of the dollars of tomorrow (our very existence)?
Yeah Pierre has talked climate change and 'technology' like nuclear which is super expensive and still generates nuclear waste that has to be stored somewhere. Where do you suppose they should store it, your backyard?
Pierre didn't mention that there is 100% wind, water, solar and geothermal potential for clean, renewable energy with technology that exists today and can be much more localized and easily implemented than nuclear.

Be fair, expecting him to acknowledge EVERYTHING in that forum is unrealistic. He had a short amount of time to say what he needed to say and then gave time for anyone there to bring up whatever issues they desired. If he refused to acknowledge any issues people brought up, then you can go at him like that. People who are really interested in forward change will work the people who can provide solutions while the ones who are only interested in trying to make him pay for the sins of those in the past will never be a part of the process to illicit change. Nothing government happens in a day. There have been major changes and successions made and there will be more to come. An entire society has been built in this country. The fact is the non-Indigenous people that live here now do factor into how the government works with the Indigenous peoples and what they can and cannot concede to them. No one ever gets everything they want when there are other people to consider. There has to be give and take from all sides to reach any kind of agreements. In the end no one will feel completely satisfied. Everyone needs to come to terms with that. Those that don't are doomed to complain upon deaf ears.

@joemacdonald6312 Never said they couldn't. Why do they receive benefits from OAS, Child Tax Credit, and other benefits never mentioned in any treaty because they didn't exist at the time. Being a sovereign nation means taking care of your own, not expecting taxpayers to do it for you. Why should we pay for fighting forest fires on native lands? I no longer want reconciliation at any cost. I find your own efforts lacking.
@@glenngray675 I see that you are totally uneducated on First Nation history, but that is not a bad thing considering that most fellow Canadians are in the same boat on that matter. The one big mistake that you and others make is thinking and/or believing that most First Nations are sovereign, except for the ones with unceded lands.
@@glenngray675Because if you go back in your agreements to comoensate them for you breaking treaties, then every nation on the planet who interacts with Canada or trades with Canada will massively reduce their interactions with Canada because nobody trusts a treaty breaker.

Do the First Nations Chiefs have any initiative?? Or are they just waiting for something to happen.
Yes, however First Nations Leadership often gets the run around when it comes to dealing with the Federal government and the territorial governments.
Communists in government divided Catholics and Protestants along with the natives
Canada sorely needs a leader who tends to the needs, and concerns of 99% of the population, and ignore the whining and vicious tropes of the less than 1%...

Don't expect much or critique Pierre and the Cons, just believe them and support them, be a good easy voter. That's what Pierre likes. The easy voters who don't expect much from him other than he's not Trudeau.
It is curious that fiscal conservative Pierre never talks about reducing the bloated MP salaries of over $180,000 a year, a good $100,000 more than the Canadian worker average. Hmm, is that because he's a hypocrite? Or a liar? Maybe both. But he does want that sweet, sweet PM pay raise. He's only worth about 5 million dollars, so c'mon, he a low level rich guy. He's probably embarrassed when he hangs out with his donors who are big time private real estate tycoons who are multi-multi-millionaires or billionaires.

Remember HARPER'S RECESSION? Lost my job and house when Harper (and Poilievre!) deregulated mortgage insurance and brought the Great Recession to Canada in 2008. In 2006 they doubled gov't backing of private insurers to $200 Billion and invited doomed US lenders like AIG to "innovate" the previously well-protected Canadian market, which forced CMHC to also insure terrible mortgages, which caused the price of housing to peak even higher than the US. Now the Conservatives want us to forget what a stupid mess they made last time they were in charge, under Harper who was supposed to be an economist. Now libertarian Poilievre wants to really burn the place down. Before that Mulroney destroyed the economy and it took the libs 9 years to get our AAA credit rating restored. Without Covid, or Trump, or mass migration, so I'll give Trudeau the time he needs to fix things, and do my best to keep Conservatives as far away as possible from the wheel. They claim to be financially savvy, but they are just reckless, now more than ever.

@@talktothehandreviews Nice to hear an objective non-partisan description...I take it that you are not a Conservative supporter?
@@talktothehandreviewsHey, talk to the hand
Poilievre has the guts to answer the questions. Even if one of the questions asked him to answer absolutely every beef one woman had.
The first nations transparency act needs to be reinstated also appointing a first nations own auditor general. making constitutions on reserve mandatory to stop corrupt chiefs enriching them selfs. Band members need to given more power over band council ISC only listens to the corrput chiefs, cheifs do not speak for all band members.
Hereditary vs elected, eternal victims, apologize with money, wealth of chiefs....
This!!! This is why so many reserves are in disrepair!! Yet their chefs have second home outside of their community! They support themselves and their close family. Everyone else gets welfare handouts. 😢
Can they manage themselves, i thought they were policing their own now.
You better hope I don't run for Prime Minister...because I will tear up every treaty there is, and be done with this perpetual reliance on the Government.
Same!!!!
As a First Nations elder, why is this fn lady clinging to colonial ideals. Here is a chance for us to move forward and you are spouting Liberal nonsense. If we are the actual stewards of our lands (revenues), is our future to make. Right now we live under an umbrella of colonial rules and laws and stand there with our hands out asking for bread crumbs. We need change, not the same old.
🎯
If you are really a First Nations elder, how are you so ignorant of all the extremely anti-First Nations things little PP has said throughout his career?
Agree, doing the same thing over and over again and expecting something different is insanity
First Nations should start by cleaning up their hygiene
I bet all of those plants still believe in the mass graves scam
I didn’t even know until a couple months ago that they never found bodies. They just used LiDAR, scanned the ground and found “anomalies” in most cases ended up being rocks.
@@PEJK6771just outside Winnipeg, there’s a landfill that they are convinced houses the bodies of many of their missing women. They demand piles of money be spent to excavate. When it wasn’t happening, they became a bother to the employees. Eventually, they had to place security there 24/7. It’s wild.
@@PEJK6771 Everyone who came and went to a residential school is accounted for, including students that passed away both at, and away, from the school. By the mid 20th century, a lot of these schools had former students in administrative positions. Multiple people spoke out about it and were cancelled. It was immediately obvious there were no mass graves, the National Post did a big story on the topic a day after the original press release and debunked the whole thing.
It should be said that the people who did the scans were very clear that they had no proof that it was mass graves and didn't endorse that as factual. Nonetheless the usual culprits spun the tail of this being mass graves.
they also fail to talk about the fact that from the 70's Onward, parents voluntarily brought their own children to attend the schools. Yes, there were some abuses... but, it wasn't a compete system of depravity and torture, like we're meant to accept as the narrative. 🤔
Enough victim mentality from these native, we have bigger issues in Canada
I'll provide some information which can be accessed online and with some reading at the Ontario and Canadian government websites, for over 173 years the Crown has failed to increase the contractually obligated $4 per year annuities to certain First Nations as stated in certain First Nation Treaties throughout Canada, especially when the Crown and provinces made billions since that time from natural resources such as timber and precious metals. When fellow Canadians are not paid what they are legally owed and take it to court, why can't First Nations do the same?
@@joemacdonald6312 they lost and need to move on. That's how the world works back in that era. A lot of countries won their independence by going to war and fighting. These natives are lazy and lost.
Everyone should be treated fairly.
Using the "First nation" title just like racist, victim crying.
Did they take more money, more benefits from other Canadians, who have done nothing wrong with their "first nation" but these indigenous generations also has not suffered anything from the past.
If they want to claim what never actually happened to them, buy a time machine.
First Nation chiefs sold out to communists in government. Communism divided Catholics and Protestants along with the natives not Europeans southerners Christians globally never created owned imported financed it
Most important he will get rid of wef and gender crap and br8ng back laws to charge violent criminals to jail for 2 to 5 yrs now they are released. He will ax the tax.
You think he will get away from wef? The whole world complied without question and zero resistance. To truly believe this one individual politician can stop them is SILLY

Yeah, you probably do, since my father is dead. Also, if you think you deserve respect because you make money... I got news for ya... You don't.
Honestly, the fact you brought up making money just seems so pathetic.

Thats the best approach and attempt towards indigenous ive seen....and all they do is complain.... the endless entitlement... and accusations against people who didnt do any of the things in the grievances.
STOP BEING BULLIED INTO WHAT TO SAY OR DO OR HOW YOU SPEND YOUR MONEY THERE IS 96 PERCENT MORE OF US THAN THEM … RIDICULOUS WAKE UP

Stop giving natives money to have more children while those working get little tax credits
Pierre for PM!
For decades many have tried to fix this. I'm sure that very soon the FN will have many more FN Nurses, Doctors, Lab Technicians, Plumbers, Electricians,Masons, Indigenous Police Services,Financial Planners, Lawyers, Judges, Teachers (Their own 24 hour Day Cares), etc. Also it would be nice to see a website with all of the missing FN women (Those that have been solved and those being worked on ...updated every 6 months). Also a full accounting of the spending on infrastructure (Schools, Water Treatment Plants, Medical Clinics) etc. I know that the best interests of the FN people and especially their children are of primary importance to all FN Leaders, Canadian People and our government.
Be nice to have the same kind of accounting for the government expenditure.
Not just nice - we need better accounting.
If we could only go back in time and write that there agreements were before Canada was a country. You gave away your land.
I’ve worked with bands for a few years now and I’m done. I have no patience or sympathy left for FN. Always complaining, demanding more of everything, and blaming everyone but themselves. On their current trajectory, they’ll never be successful.
i work on a few reserves to logging and they dont want to work ,they want welfare or hand outs .
No you didn't.
We drive and deliver up north on the winter roads. I see a lot. 😮

pierre poilievre for pm!
So he forgot to say some stuff in his speech… ok. He did very well in response to those questions at the end.
This was way better than what happened to Trudeaus Minister who literally got lashed for like an hour straight lmao.
One guy said that the PM should attend treaty meetings in person (which I fully support) if he has the courage to.
“Trudeau if you have balls, come to my territory!”
LOL.
He didn't forget anything. Expecting him to address everything in an opening statement is unrealistic. He allowed everyone to bring up their concerns. If he failed to address them after that, then people can complain, but not before. He did well in my opinion.
@@famousforever8556 Considering Canada's reputation on the world stage currently, the inflation rate, the amount of Canadians fleeing the country, the amount of those who came here regretting it openly and even claiming "they were tricked" into coming here........ *in your opinion, how has he done so far as a leader to Canada* ? And if you think he's done WELL, explain with examples HOW he has done well, in your viewpoint?
I watched the video too, there was nothing nice said about the Liberals by these people.
They forget a lot of things if you don't bring it up.
You will find no problem solvers in Canadian federal politics. I see ZERO leaders of any political parties that have problem solving skills, deep scientific respect and knowledge and a history of themselves helping the poor, working class and challenged people of our nation. Photo ops don't count.
Pierre has spent 20 years in government, was Housing Minister under Harper and approved zero units of social housing. Great guy! Yet he's become a millionaire in part from private real estate speculation. Follow the money that's where you'll who these guys work for. It isn't the poor or working class Canadians who they pay lip service to.
Real change NEVER comes from politicians. They only change if the people pressure them to support sustainable, healthy and just policies that the people are already doing through co-ops, mutual aid and social organizations.
People need to organize, educate and agitate better. Politicians won't be solving anything. And right wing Conservatives or neoLiberals will be the last to really help.
The economy of canada is first and foremost. We cant solve climate change when we are broke as a Nation. All that research, technology development costs $$$$. We are even close to the largest contributors of CO2 emissions. A strong canadian economy helps the economy's of reservations as well. MuH ScHoOlS is just unrelated to why Pierre is even there in the first place
Israel owes the west trillions of dollars hold them accountable globally
PP has better answers. Hands down. JT doesn't even know how to answer a question with such detail.
Heaven forbid that natives have to take care of themselves or help themselves in any way
i dont get these chief's. best guy in 20 years comes along and they whine about liberal issues. vote liberal then. that's worked out great.
Pierre is going to make an excellent PM soon. Let’s goooo conservatives
If Pierre Pollivere fails to deliver Ppc and Bloc Québécois will be in power which is fantastic
Is Pierre pollivere building new homes for immigrants or for Canadians who built this country?
Even though I'm not a PP fan whatsoever...I will admit this monologue from the crowd was pathetic, very transparent, and embarrassing
Look you natives!!! You really have a bad past so do a lot of other people but its time to move on and create a future!!
What happens when First Nation chiefs fail to manage themselves and then look to the federal government to bail them out with money that the Federal government never collected because it went to the FN directly instead? So focus on acknowledgement instead of policies that will further First Nations health (including the environment) and wealth. The federal government is very miss managed but so are First Nation tribes. First Nations already get tones of funding (32 billion from federal alone, plus provincial & municipal), tones of tax breaks, corporation-tribe partnership, etc...yet miss management and focus on identity policies has slowed down their progress. Discrimination has slowed them down in the past but this kind of attitude slows them down today.
Yeah... that's the business model. They've been doing it for 100 years.
Communists divided Catholics and Protestants along with the natives time for communists to be held accountable globally.
How many apoligies and billions do they need to be happy? Its getting tiring. Theres what, something like 400 plus chiefs who all have different ideas and all dont get along. Imagine trying to deal with that. They cry climate change for more money.
These indig ladies are not listing to Pierre, they need to hear what he's saying , they are afixiated on there own words. Big problem when your not open to new ideas.
Gimmie Gimmie Gimmie they said.
Actually, she said let go of my deed and respect the rights therein.
fun fact, both complainants were in fact named Karen.
When are they going to stop whining and get on with life? The past is the past. I don't whine about the fact that my ancestors were enslaved by Mongol hordes or vikings hundreds of years ago. I don't beg other people for money. None of that is conducive to me becoming a better person
"an apology without MONEY" Tells you all you need to know

they need more drugs and beer money

Ici au Québec, nous avons signé 2 grand traités de paix avec les Premières Nations incluant des droits et des obligations concernant l’exploitation du territoire. Plusieurs de ces nations sont aujourd’hui prospères et contribuent à la richesse collective du Québec. Dans l’esprit des québécois en majorité, ces nations nous enrichissent culturellement et plutôt que de nuire à leurs revendications, nous les avons entendu et répondu positivement. Ça ne s’est pas fait en un jour et beaucoup reste à faire. Les premières nations doivent être écoutées et respectées.
It's old already. The whole victim mentality NEVER helped anyone. They get hand outs left and right, more than anyone else but look at their reservations and the places they have in cities.. At most of those Rez places, the trucks and construction equipment that's brought there to help them gets vandalized as soon as it's dropped off! And really, it's always them people are scared of and threatened by in places... So who's the problem and what are they not receiving?? Women of all races go missing, it's not going to end .. I don't know anyone who's trashing the land and crying about how it sucks and everyone else needs to fix it all the time. Wth?
@@gazthejaz8910Who's dumb enough? We need to all be responsible
An apology without money to back it is hollow words in the wind.
Yeah, always about the free money. He is giving you a way to make and keep as much money as you are willing to work for. But I guess that is the problem.....you'd have to work.
At least they get an apology. This government has had the gall to invite Ukrainians to stay here when they can't and won't even apologise for putting their countrymen in labour camps in Northern Ontario and elsewhere after WWI. They demolished the site at Kapuskasing, and the statue erected as a memorial was commissioned by descendants of the prisoners. It's shameful.
pierre gets a lot more of my respect. he's being upfront and facing the questions heads on with little time he has.
Really dont think it matters, they won't be happy regardless. We have more than enough people coming here in the next 20 years the natives will be a non issue.
If that's the case then you've lost too.
@@FNWild probably, but I live in part of the country that will take 100 years to develop anywhere near to a major city/have major city issues.

They're mad because , "How dare Peirre didn't talk about vacationing in Tofino on Reconciliation Day" 😂😂😂
Why are those chiefs not expressing their concerns to the one person in charge of this broken nation at the moment aka Crime Minister Justin Trudeau?!
Communists divided Catholics and Protestants along with the natives not Europeans
First step to take is to fix the poor economy. Get everyone working. We need jobs and to lower the cost of living. The inflation is out of control. Good answer Pierre.
Work? Hahah gl
PP will stop the program put in place by Trudeau to clean up the water on Reserves. The work has been started and must continue. PP is not the man to do the work. He is al talk and bluster.
Inflation? That is thanks to good old corporate greed - the people PP is running to support.
The unemployment rate is about the average of the last 25 years.... 🙄
Even though inflation dropped from 8.1% in 2022 to its target rate of 2.8% in 2024, grocery and oil companies (some of PP's biggest donors) continue to price gouge working Canadians to pad their own record breaking profits and executive bonuses, while Poilievre blames the Liberal gov't. His top advisor is a Lobbyist for Loblaw's!
Canada has the lowest Deficit-to-GDP ratio of the G7 nations, and the highest possible AAA credit rating that represents exceptional trustworthiness and the lowest risk of default.
Canada's economy is doing fine and getting better.. Plus, as Canada's energy tech capital, Alberta's moratoriums on solar and wind have also stifled large scale business investment. However, Canadian workers’ incomes have been steadily growing since 2000 and the economy is growing at a reliable pace. And the Trudeau gov't is doing a good job of securing strong trade policies with high growth nations like Vietnam and the Phillipines.
@@Guitarisforgrinsyeah but it's all imported 'people' from India who have the jobs, not _real_ Canadians who were born and raised here
Wow! Just be outright obnoxious to the next Prime Minister of Canada. You catch more bees with honey than vinegar. Please try to educate yourself on making productive requests in a nice manner and maybe the Federal Government will actually prioritize you.
lol their opinions are invalid until they start paying taxes.
Facts: the crown hasn't paid their full annuities, which are contractually obligated per the Treaties, to certain First Nations people across Canada. There are many FN lawsuits against the crown as this comment is being posted.
Makes you wonder where the money really is?🤔 And why they can't dish it out!???
