Less than ONE PERCENT, yo.
So calm down #UpSettler .
We've been here fishing since the beginning, and we're going to keep doing that - just like we wrote into the TREATIES that form the very foundation of #Canada .

This deal wasn't necessary.
#Treaty1752 is THE deal.
And every time we ignore that - we weaken its power.
Don't desert Treaty - ASSERT TREATY.

Ok Settler, that's enough.
Do NOT make us come down to the Wharf again.
Our INHERENT rights to fish are BAKED into the foundations of #Canada . Affirmed by your own damn Courts.
Don't like it?
GO BACK TO EUROPE.

Shout out to Sipekne'katik First Nation ( #Mikmaq ) for setting up a #TreatyTruckhouse in Kjipuktuk/Halifax 270 years after Settlers made that 'promise'.

Well.
He is creepy looking, granted.
But if settlers wanna ditch the monarchy- ya need to be ready to renegotiate the Treaties that form the foundation of the colony of #Canada .

Not all Treaties cede lands.
#Mikmaq Nation lands are #UNCEDED .
Our Treaties lay down rules of engagement in our lands - but none of them cede or sell an inch of it.
