I hope that Harper continues not to want to meet with her, but I sure he will cave......

Perhaps for her next protest she will stay in a hotel where it is a five block walk to the spa, rather than have an in house spa......

Based on what I have read about her, it just goes to confirm how the "leadership" of these bands are like drunken sailors on leave the second they get money......

He shouldn't cave. He should meet with the everyday common folk on the reserve though.

I would almost agree with that.

I would love to see someone go into her band and get a sense of what they really think of her.

I remember during the housing crisis there were some really upset people talking about her.

If she wants to prove that she's actually on a hunger strike then string up a web cam in her Teepee.

As it stands based around her reputation of honesty and integrity I have no doubt that someone is sneaking her big macs.

Her lack of physical change tells me that some B.S. is in the air.

Her before the strike



Her in the last two days



She's not living on broth and tea for the last 3 1/2 weeks. Notice how she's always wearing a heavy coat or a blanket so that she can hid her bulbous man gut.


I'll give her credit, she's slick she's as good as any con man out there.
Shes probably on the miss choksondik diet.
They kinda look the same

Im very interested if some bands who have their economic act together will publically distance themselves from Chief Spence after this audit fiasco.

I also think the RCMP should be called in on this.

How are the NDP going to spin this one?

they'll talk about flying to the reserve and crying at the sight of such poverty, and then leaving basketballs.

By the way, credit should go to Ezra Levant for calling out the spending details last year. Give credit where it is due.

If I remember right and I'm swallowing a huge amount of inner mouth vomit as I say this, but the CBC did a great piece on what was going on there including getting in Spences face about private plane rentals for shopping trips.

Yes, the cbc did a good interview last year. The national post summarizes it in an article today, but the cbc article was interview was by a reporter named arsenault if i recall correctly.

I'm absolutely loving how this lady is falling flat on her face, and being shown to be the fraud she is.

If the Idle No More movement wants to have any mobility at all, they need to distance themselves from this woman and give the public a clear understanding of their concerns and requests.

But I honestly don't see this happening.

Seriously, the government should buy out every first nations member to the tune of $100k end the support, and just let them survive like he rest of us not-getting-a-free-handout-from-the-goverment fools. I would support it in a heartbeat.

Except most of them seem to see her as the second coming and Mother Earth all rolled into one. Reality is, she's had a second helping of Mother Earth and now she's just ####ting all over everything.

Kennedy says all donations accounted for

Clatyon Kennedy, Attawapiskat Chief Theresa Spence’s life partner, said he wants to allay concerns raised in the media about a savings account he set up to for donations to support Spence’s hunger strike.

So far, the account has received about $31,000 in donations and spent about $20,400 on expenses like hotels for support staff at the site and Spence’s family along with food, stoves, gasoline and the rental of a car, he said.

Kennedy said he has kept all the receipts and will be providing a detailed breakdown of the spending to the major donors.

“I have the spreadsheets, I have the documentation, if anyone is worried,” he said.

Odd that he keeps all these receipts, but they can't find over 60% of the ones for the band/town.

Truedeau - "When I'm Prime Minister, we'll just sit down and rap, you know smoke the peace pipe and really you know like totally have a dialogue, from there who knows, but we'll like talk about stuff, now watch me flip my hair and smile at the camera"

Yeah that guy has all the credibility of a Montreal Mayor.

He's doing what my dad did in the 70's, he bought a bunch of waitress order pads when he was on the road and would right up his own expenses.
