Native Canadian Indians are blocking roads, threatening sit-ins and challenging government authorities, and many believe it is only a matter of time before bloodshed happens. They are angry that Government Departments are bypassing the Chiefs and going to local bands to negotiate treaty rights because they are not as strong. The Indian Chiefs believe the government should negotiate with the chiefs which represent 500,000 Indians in Canada, and not take their fishing and hunting rights by using a divide and conquer strategy.
OIL HITS $13.00 A BARREL

The current price controls are due to expire at the end of August.
