First Nations Education Act (FNEA)

You Decide
At the time of Treaty, we held on to the responsibility to educate our children who are sacred gifts from our Creator. A RE YOU GOING TO BE THE WEAK LINK TO FINAL ASSIMILATION: ALLOWING YOUR CHILDREN TO BE SWALLOWED UP BY CANADIAN SOCIETY? OR ARE YOU GOING TO SAY NO!

What Does This Mean?

The Proposed FNEA will:
Extinguish our inherent jurisdiction it takes away our children; Terminate the Treaty No. 6 agreement to Education; Dissolve federal responsibility and their legal obligations to fund we will have to pay; Give the land(s) and the schools to the province; Allow provinces to dictate control of our schools; Take away control over OUR education system(s); Repeat the residential school era over again - the last time there was National legislation on First Nations Education, it was for residential school. NOT BE A SOLUTION.

Get to know our rights to education and that these are forever as long as the sun shines, the rivers flow, and the grasses grow. 4. Teach our children about our oral understanding of our Treaties. 5. Demand that the oral understanding of Treaties be taught in our childrens schools. 6. Develop our own Nations Education Laws. 7. Organize peaceful protests and rallies and write letters to MPs. 8.
