10044 new lottery winners.  Congratulations.  How do we have founding members of a new Indian tribe in 2017?    Exactly what heritage and culture are these people professing to connect with if they are the founding members?  From the Mi'kmaq?  Mi'kmaq are from Nova Scotia and New Brunswick!  They want to ride the coat tales of a tribe they fled a few hundred years ago - and we're letting them. Awesome.  Go Canada!!! 
Distinct classes within a society is contradictory to democracy and breeds contempt (like mine) and eventually leads to total intolerance of both government and other cultures (on my way re government).  I have total respect for the NA Indigenous cultures and history but  EVERYONE should contribute to society to the best of their individual ability - not based on their race.    Even if I did qualify for the free ride they are given, I'm too proud to take it.
