TO EVERYTHING THERE IS A SEASON

To all my friends and supporters ....

For personal reasons , which I do not now want to go into , be advised I will be withdrawing from the election process as Chief of the Qalipu Mi'kmaw First Nations Band and other responsibility in the near future.

People have a right , and indeed a responsibility, to get out and vote.....

You are the "Voice", and all your voices should be heard.

Wela'liaq-Thank you

WHAT IS AN ELDER ?

There are many Elders in a community , and all people should have respect for them.

There are Elders in communities that are quite knowledgeable in who are their people , as in relations , and know a great deal of wisdom in history and customs of the Mi'kmaw Nation.

Society itself has to know who those people are, and have gone through stages in life.

They will sit to hear what their people have to say .

As we all walk different paths in life , one Elder could be different from another , but are all equal in that circle . One cannot be higher or lower that the other.

Those respected Elders don't have to be 90 years old. Age has nothing to do with being an Elder. Elders have chosen some times to share good thoughts and stories that have be passed down for generations, for there are teachings and messages within those stories that have meaning for life itself.

An Elder shares his time with his people and is very keen when they speak the words of truth and show love, passion, kindness for all living things that were created by the Creator.

Both women and men can hold that self esteem, but women must at all cost , must be the first to speak.

Men should be the protectors of all Creation.
