Updating a couple of items from yesterday.

CBC Here & Now had a short piece on the Innu people power story last night.
Not a lot of information, but enough so we know the person found not guilty was not Innu.

Anastasia Qupee, chief of the band council, said that there was no race issues in the protest, just people voicing there concern that justice was not done.

I have not come across any court reports of the case, could be a publication bane. What ever is going on it would be nice for people to be informed on issues like this. Is it a case of justice miscued or a case of over zealous people taking the law into their hands without warrant?

Silence just plays into the hands of the already damaging biases and miss information out there about native peoples and the communities they reside.

There are lessons learned by the friend in QC, the one who did not bother to search for the jigs dinner recipe until too late. Below is the response I received asking how it went.

pffffffffft

doughboys went flat!!!!!!! pork was good, nightmares all night trying to digest!


To put a cook’s spin on an old carpenter’s axiom, check recipe twice, cook once.
