Who is going to represent YOU Non Manitoba Metis and Manitoba Metis who are not a part of the Manitoba Metis Federation, in the coming Red River Metis Land Claim Settlement?

We need an organization of Red River Metis Descendants who may or may not live in and out side of Manitoba, including Metis refugees who ended up in the United Sates, etc, and who may or may not have treaty Indian Status, Bill c-31, or other treaty type Indian Status, to be a included and not left out of the coming settlement. I propose that LAND as agreed to in the Manitoba Act be front and centre of any settlement with cash for reparations for the suffering of our Metis refugees of the two Metis diasporas...

There's 1.6 million acres of land in southern Manitoba administered by agricultural crown lands and crown lands branch, Province of Manitoba. The land is used for farm leases, general use permits wood cutting, community pasture, etc,... This land for the most part is good productive land. We Red River Metis decendants were cheated out of 1.4 million acres of land so I am calling for a hold on all this crown land and am calling as such for the Canadian and Manitoba governments to freeze all leases and permitted use of this crown land and as such it is herby claimed as part of the coming Manitoba Metis land claim settlement. In addition to the 1.6 million acres of provincial crown land declaried as a part of the Metis Land Claim Settlement the 733,440 acres in the Federal Crown Land that makes up Riding Mountain National Park is herby also included. In the original Metis land settlement land was provide for 7,000 Metis children. That number today is estimated at over 800,000. Fortunately Manitoba is made up of 160,000,000 square acres of land of which only 30 some million is in private hands so the some 2 million plus acres identified is peanuts compared to the over 100,000,000 acres of unsettled land in Manitoba,..

This land deal will not cost Canadian tax payers anything and in fact will pay for its self and make money for Canada as we Metis will as we always have pay our fare share of property taxes,...

Louis Riel struck a good deal then and it's a good deal today for the Metis. And as such that this land settlement be distributed as it was intended as private property to Metis.

Support this petition and plz copy and paste to your respective Metis Organization, Prime Minister's Office: PM@pm.gc.ca, as well as your MP and MLA's.
