Thanks very much Br. Patrick!
.....
It's just that I never knew a First Nation person.. personally~! I HAVE been on Reservations.. I saw one when I was doing genealogy on my mother's side up in Escanaba Michigan. I even saw a BEAR there~! But every house looked so poor.. The US government should treat First Nation people better. We are their (your) 'guests' afterall. Feel free to share anything you like~!

Your post is very heart warming! You are kind!
I am happy that you have been in some Reservations! Been priviledged, I have, to known and continue some friendships with some First Nations. And so your have some First Nation in you, may I ask?
Bears, you can see some here. Last year, a cub was up a tree about 60 feet away in neighbour backyard, as noted by my mother's dog when my gay brother brought him out to walk! Not that many years ago, a bear came to mother's house to pick up the garbage!
We usually had moose or deer come into the back neighbour garden!!
Ever seen a moose?
Yes, the US, Canada, (and others it seems), do NOT care about First Nations!! And they pay lip services to too many First Nations, robbing them! You have read some of my posts on that? It's a form of genocide, I think towards First Nations, unfortunately which continues towards some!! More on that if you like to know?
I suppose many would bash a gay First Nation guy, but First Nation(s) did NOT, and respected gay men!! Did you know?
Au revoir,
hugs! Do you think that if a started some threads on First Nations, some Bettermost members would ne interested?
