Too harsh?!
Institutionalized corruption.
Each Treaty includes a clause where they agree to obey the law.
Breaking the law is breaking the contract. His Treaty card should be recalled.
Keep doing that until only the law abiding are Treaty Indians.
Enforce the contract provisions. Problem solved.
“However, the band leadership said Monday it will have to revisit the severance agreement “due to the fact that our small First Nation cannot afford the amount as previously agreed.”
Geez,now WHERE on earth are they going to get the money to pay this victim of white oppression?
Oh,maybe they’re going to raise the corporate taxes on the many industries extant on their First Nation! That’d do it.
Apparently all is not well at the Pheasant Rump.
Not to worry, I’m sure the UN investigation into how Canada abuses aboriginals will bring to light how the lush welfare programs lavished on aboriginals has made them into corrupt conniving scammers – or not.
Must be a sweetheart of a contract. Normally when an employee cannot meet their obligation due to a prolonged absence you get kicked to the curb. I’ll bet the contract for Chief likes-em-young’s replacement has a clause allowing an absentee chief to be fired without severance.
Setting a hell of a precedent for Benjamin Levin!!!!
“…. and has agreed to pay severance to — the ex-chief who sexually assaulted a teenage girl.”
Let me interpret this “severance” for you.
“Harper (via taxpayers) must send more money to pay this fellow off!”
“Severance package” should involve a knife when it come to creeps that can’t keep their hands off kids.
You get a bingo for that one.
I see a pattern that forgives sexual misconduct (or any abuse, really) on aboriginals’ parts but condemns vociferously and with a price tag white people whenever they allegedly do something wrong. This is why those within the community should drive scum like MacArthur out with pitchforks and torches. No one else cares about them. They’ll have to act on their own. What a lonely feeling it is to know that your own community doesn’t give a crap about you.
Now careful, everyone. You and I both know that this sexual assault on an underage girl is attributable exclusively to the residential school system. It doesn’t matter, of course, if the chief ever went to a residential school or had a parent who did, or even heard of residential schools until his lawyer mentioned it. In fact, even mentioning this could get you fired (and without severance).
