What about commercial aircraft? They should have to pay flyover fees.
Has Google paid the appropriate fees for including satellite imagery of reserve lands? Is Google thus not violating aboriginal rights?
Also, any water that evaporates from bodies of water on reserves the condenses into clouds which are then blown onto land of occupiers thence contributing to rain should also be a source of fees.
Anything for a buck (no pun intended) except for working for it. Anyone else feel like me when I think they should be demoted and made Canadian citizens: no more, no less? Enough of this "My greatgreat grandfather was a dummy because he made a deal that was good for everyone 100 years ago but now it is worth more." Utter crap.
Tin foil is not good enough, Kate. Check out the MIT link "On the Effectiveness of Aluminium Foil Helmets: An Empirical Study" (http://people.csail.mit.edu/rahimi/helmet/)
"Results
For all helmets, we noticed a 30 db amplification at 2.6 Ghz and a 20 db amplification at 1.2 Ghz, regardless of the position of the antenna on the cranium. In addition, all helmets exhibited a marked 20 db attenuation at around 1.5 Ghz, with no significant attenuation beyond 10 db anywhere else.
Conclusion
The helmets amplify frequency bands that coincide with those allocated to the US government between 1.2 Ghz and 1.4 Ghz. According to the FCC, These bands are supposedly reserved for ''radio location'' (ie, GPS), and other communications with satellites (see, for example, [3]). The 2.6 Ghz band coincides with mobile phone technology. Though not affiliated by government, these bands are at the hands of multinational corporations.
It requires no stretch of the imagination to conclude that the current helmet craze is likely to have been propagated by the Government, possibly with the involvement of the FCC. We hope this report will encourage the paranoid community to develop improved helmet designs to avoid falling prey to these shortcomings."
It is very useful in my work dealing with an effort by crop dusters (aerial spray planes) to get a halt placed on any future wind energy development in western Canada because it could harm their business.
Both movements come from a sense of entitlement that is not justified in my mind.
CBC radio had an odd report about this today.
Do natives really think they can blackmail telecommunication corporations?
A smoke signal activating an army of lawyers seems to be what's needed here...
Need a giant vacuum with enough power to suck up the fat assed money hungry slags. The bloody liars say it's not about the money but the Land, ya right.
Truthfully we can call their bluff, give them no more money and make them negotiate in a civilized manner for the lands and we must insist they respect our laws as they stand today. If not, it's off to the slammer.
They want to use our legal system to give them lands they sold centuries ago for what was then an agreed amount. Many of our forefathers bought and sold for a pittance too but we can't go back and demand the lands back.
Why this blog? Until this moment
I have been forced
to listen while media
and politicians alike
have told me
"what Canadians think".
In all that time they
never once asked.
This is just the voice
of an ordinary Canadian
yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."
homepage email Kate (goes to a private
mailserver in Europe)
I can't answer or use every
tip, but all are
appreciated!

is there anything that can be said about this?
Absolutely Bizarre and incredible

Simply instruct them to trap and skin all illegal messages found on their territory and bring them to The Bay where they will be traded for blankets.
Nemo2:
ROFL! I planned on dropping a derisive posting of my own on this thread until I read your 4:46p comment above.
RESULT: heads poked in my door at the resultant laughter.
And I'm passing on the comment; I can't compete with that one, heh.

Hey, how about they all get f'ing jobs instead of scheming up ways to extort the rest of us?!?
