It is good that such institutions are look at other ways of helping less fortunate people than ourselves. Instead of judging the homeless, the street bums, why not go out and buy them a coffee, sandwich, and ask how they are? Do they need to know where to go to need help, is life that busy and fast that we forget about the founding values of Canadian society? Bad apples in every crowd, so do not judge all people on the street with the same brushes. I was looking for work downtown Edmonton & saw a native man bandaged over his left eye, He was weak and softly asking for $. No passerby could hear him, did not care, & didn’t pay attention to this poor soul. I gave him a smoke, told him I was not working and sat near him as I waited for the bus. It was sad to see all these people walk by, as this man held his cap out and tried to survive. I dug in my pocket and gave him the two quarters, but felt bad because I still had a loonie. Late Chief Dan George's son Len George told me once that if you see someone who needs help, dug in your pocket and give what you have in change. It is the right thing to do. Today I see signs saying give to social agencies instead of to the people on the street, Why do we follow the rules of society when it comes to helping the less fortunate, instead of trusting the teachings of your/our Creator totally by helping the less fortunate regardless of ones judgment and assumption of their background, ulterior motives, or the degree of their empty stomach or brain; if you consider the ones who have bad motives regarding charity like the woman who faked cancer and defrauded many as a result of their good grace and charity? People on the street are our equal, Help them, karma exists be on the left hand or right hand? U decide.

MY PERSONAL REPLY TO CBC WEB ARTICLE: Oka developer met with protests
MY PERSONAL REPLY TO CBC WEB ARTICLE: Oka developer met with protests
Ducharme says he has the rights and deeds for the land on behalf of a financial institution, and implies the Mohawks committed heresies. Having finished my first feature film in 2004 based on the incident of Oka, 1990, After years of study, research, and travel to the Mohawk territory in my younger days, I have met the late Joe David, As well as members of the Gabriel family. Wonderful people who spoke the truth regardless of the stereotyping and racism that is steeped deep in Canadian History, Alanis Obamsowin's film Kanasatake 200 years of resistance is also a great film to understand the history of the area, which is the results of this current valid form of resistance. The Whiteman’s malaise. The title deeds are worthless when it comes to broken treaties, manipulating priest from the Oka area and its history, and how the euro centric ancestors of that territory's history stole the land from the Mohawks. Duchames sounds like that guy from Pale Rider who shows Clint Easton’s character his piece of paper saying he owns the land. White devils again manipulating the media and council people
