Tell us, and we'll tell the world!

I was interested in learning more about the reserve/treaty laws. Are they similar to those of the Kitchenuhmeykoosib Inninuwag Community, in that they are bound by treaty laws signed by their ancestors? I am deeply saddened and ashamed that Canada, the vast country that it is, cannot help our own Third World here in Ontario. We need to make this public on a daily basis, and advocate for change. I had heard about Kitchenuhmeykoosib, but only heard about Attawapiskat yesterday on the news. I am currently attending College to become a Social Service Worker, and I am learning alot about the values of our country and it's cultures.
