With all respect, halfbreed country born only connected with only ancestral English and Scottish family are not Métis because like the Métis they are people of a beautiful Aboriginal Nation of their own. People have great difficulty to make a difference between being Métis and being mixed blood . Quite a difference . First the term Métis is not a generic word to include all people of mixed ancestry who claim to have Aboriginal ancestry somewhere in their genealogy . Métis are from this new Nation call tla Nation Métis with a distinct familial , social, political,cultural and linguistic continuity. It is just like saying that all First Nations are all the same when they are called generically indian under the indian act when they are not .

Well this is the same thing with Métis. Métis are people of Aboriginal and French ancestry who define themselves with a distinct Metis history, culture and a distinct Métis language and believe me it is not tie to the English language , culture and history. Métis is a French word and there is a cultural and linguitic reason for it . This term also has been used by Halfbreed Country born to define themselves because it seem they are so confused with their own identity or never took the time to identified themself to their true cultural and linguistic reality. They also know they are not recognize in the Canadian constitution as a distinct Aboriginal people and Nation. The Métis are.

Find me the word Métis in the English dictionary ? You will not find it. Well they also are kind of using Métis organization and Métis identities to define themselves is in it . They have no ties to the Métis , the Métis family clans. the Métis culture , the Métis history and more so to the Métis language . It has been going for so many year now since the creation of the Métis National Council and it must stop.

When confronted to their own identity Halfbreed Country born or assimilated Métis to the English language are also the most opposed one to include the eastern Métis who still speak their Métis language claiming they are French because of it. They also are the one who want to retain a territorial definition of Métis connected to the Red River settlement refusing all ties to eastern Métis.

Métis all over Canada more so in the prairie provinces are in the process of a cultural and linguistic revolution to take back the control of their Métis Nation, their organizations, the ownership of their culture and their language to force all the business ofla Nation Métis to be done in the Michif language first. There the one who claim le Controle Métis de l' Éducation Métis pour leurs enfants.

The colonial English language must come out of all the Métis Organizations and the Nation Métis if we all want to keep our Métis languages and our culture alive and to survive as strong Aboriginal Nation Métis with all of our Métis distinction .

It is the responsibility of the Halfbreeb Country born to stand up as their own distinct Nation with its own identity and demonstrate to all other Aboriginal Nations and more so the the Métis across Canada their own historical and culture background and their own derived English language. Some of them in the west were once called Orcadian with strong connection with the area of Orkney in Scotland.

I am a Métis and my Aboriginal history and my connection as a Métis and as an Aboriginal person is tied with the French not the English.

Then so we could say the Halfbreed Country born usurped a Métis Identity to define themselves. But we will not consider them as fraud but rather as confused people as we recognize they are of Aboriginal ancestry. They should be proud of being who they are and to begin developing their own Nation according to their own distinct history tied with the English and Scotish people and stop calling themselves Métis as they are not.

And when I see the same confused people calling themselves a Métis Federation of Canada with a French word and translating it in French as a Fédération Métisse, I find it insulting as they use the word Métis fully in English and reducing the word Métis as an adjective in French. There is only one Métis Nation and Métis people should retain their focus on how a Nation is built culturally , historically and linguistically . And yes many western Métis did assimilated to the English language but they and their families are still Métis .

Beside as Métis we shall never compromise our Métis Nation by creating parrallèle organizations to serve as a form of retaliation to the Métis National Council. Métis must take over the Métis National Council and the Métis Nations not run away from it. It is just like Canadian creating a new parallel Canadian Nation a because we do not like what Harper or Trudeau are doing .

Métis are a Nation of Métis People not an Organization. A Nation is not define for the delivery of service she must provide , this is the role of an organization .

As for the Halfbreed country born they must wake up to their own beautuful identity base on their own distinct history, culture and language and built their own distinct Nation apart from the Métis Nation and according to their own historical , cultural and linguistic reality.

Stand up please we want to learn and see who you really are . You can no longer call yourself Métis. Halfbreed Country born is not a derogatory word as it is the word in English to define people of mixed ancestry like the workd Métis in French. If it is derogatory word, then the word Métis should also be a derogatory word in French. Halfbreed is the English word to define who you are as connected to the English and Scotish and if you find obfuscated with this word and find it derogatory then find yourself a word in English that relate to your identity in your own language and reflect who you are and render your identity, your culture and your language alive .

Métis are in the process of a cultural and linguistic revolution in western Canada as Métis want to promote their history and retain their culture, and their language and to keep it alive with their Métis children and grand children of the seven generation . But as long as the Nation Métis movement will be controlled by Halfbreed Country born and Métis assimilated to the English language the chance for Métis People for building a Nation Métis and retaining and transmitting their culture and language among the administration of their own Nation Métis and organizations is being compromised .

We are at the turning point were western Métis must take control like the eastern Métis ,of all their social, political, cultural and educational institutions and more so the control of their Métis éducation in the Métis Language for their Métis children, a must for the survival of the Métis People and la Nation Métis across Canada. This is why the importance of the reconnection of western Métis with the Métis people Québec and Acadia .

THE MÉTIS NATION IS NOW IN NEED OF MÉTIS LEADERS WITH A MÉTIS VISION BASED ON A SOCIAL , HISTORICAL, CULTURAL, ÉDUCATIONAL AND LINGUISTIC DISTINCT DEFINITION OF MÉTIS TO KEEP ALIVE THE DISTINCTION OF THIS BEAUTIFUL MÉTIS NATION. TO COMPROMISE THIS IS TO SLOWLY KILL LA NATION MÉTIS AS THE NATION MÉTIS IN NOT AN ENGLISH BASE COLONIZED NATION .
