I was thinking about this today. A few years back we had several high profile cases of corporate corruption, the Enrons, WorldComs, Comrad Black. companies that cooked the books, and there was an outraged call to get them the executives of these organizations arrested dragged through the courts and sentenced to long jail terms.

what they did book keeping wise and corruption wise and what Spence is doing aren't entirely different. Why aren't there more out cries from the media and the people and everyone else to hold Spence and her boyfriend to the same standards.

We chuckled at Rob Fords situation and a lot of media circuits and other groups openly cheered when the courts had him thrown out of office. Yet we're not hearing the same outcries for Spence.

I know I'm going to sound like a horrible person, but Spence isn't being held to the same standards because she's a Band Chief, and to me that's wrong.

If we're going to fix the system the first thing that has to happen is that we have to treat these situations the same way as we would treat a corporation, or a corrupt mayor or anything like that and not be blinded by the color of her skin or the people that she supposedly represents.

We're doing the Native's in Canada a huge disservice by not working harder to expose crap like this and seeing it dealt with like we would deal with everything else.

My 2 cents and two glasses of scotch talking.
