"Idle No More" or Idle Forever?

For any community to thrive in the “real world”, they must individually and collectively create and sell value.

A group of millionaire Indian Chiefs are threatening to bring the Canadian economy to a halt, because they want more money. They call their movement “Idle no more”…but perhaps it should be called what it really is, “Idle forever”.

These Chiefs and their misguided small “l” liberal supporters have hoodwinked the mainstream media, and no politician has the guts to speak out.

A wise Aboriginal elder told me recently that, in his opinion, reservations should be closed down and his people should become part of the economic mainstream of North American life.

“It’s the only way…reservations are destroying us.” he says.

Some of our Aboriginal citizens do “get it”. Take a minute to read what Chief Clarence Louie from British Columbia says about what his people need to do to prosper (see below). This is the Aboriginal leader that other natives should be listening too. Not the ones camped out in Ottawa, or blocking highways and bridges across the country.
