A complete report is in and things are split but it sounds like it was very interesting.
A few of the highlights are:
Election Results:
Clem Chartier 28
Tony Belcourt 12
Bruce Dumont 11
Rick Laliberte 3
The finances were discussed over two days and many questions went unanswered and had an arrogant Auditor responding with statements like I have 30 years experience and I know what I am doing. In fact the chair, Richard Mirasty thanked him for his ongoing job description because instead of answers he advised he is the all knowledge man and did not need to answer the question.
As the day turned out the audits were not passed – in fact when David’s group were concerned that the audit motion would not pass they withdrew the motion.
An auditor needed to be appointed for the upcoming year and a new auditor was hired. We had one delegate explain that Bernie Shore acted like a lawyer chasing ambulances and was dismal when they said good bye Bernie.
Just a few points of interest
- Rick Boucher had the health money in Metco Venture pay for him to attend. He had no purpose at the meeting but was seen taking advantage of his childish behaviour and name calling.
- In fact, David’s friends were name calling right till the end of weekend. Doesn’t sound like people who are comfortable with the results of things. The bullies do not even know how to gloat they just keep trying to bully.
- Some other people who were there, compliments of David Chartrand and Clem Chartier were Guy Bouvier and Gerald Morin.
There are other tidbits here and there but for the time being some will have to wait till confirmation can happen – but things are definitely interesting because it seems things are coming down the stem that will not stop even with them winning the election. The flow of information has started and is not ending. There will be details of items that will be released not just on the blogs but through the media over the next few months and there may even be criminal charges that are forth coming for some. Stay posted and we will keep you informed.
The last bit of information I will share - the power of communication is that everyone is talking about the blogs and the information being shared. Maybe we will become a part of helping to improve the literacy rate in our nation - even some of the leaders who did not read their reports and agreements in the past are now learning how to access the internet and reading the blogs.

Many people were saying if Bruce Dumont ran he would split votes.
Clem Chartier 28
Tony Belcourt 12
Bruce Dumont 11
Rick Laliberte 3
Currently if Bruce Dumont and Rick Lalibere did not run Clem Chartier would still have the popular vote.
12+11+3 is still only 26, and two votes short if Tony Belcourt was the only one running againt Clem Chartier.
Now it gets interesting, ....
To Anonymous:
Yes that is the point - you had to have 51% of the voting delegates to win so for instance if Clem would have had 26 votes and the other 28 votes were divided amongst the other candidates - there would have been a second ballot until someone clearly had 28 votes. In fact the court mediation process had something set in place in case it was a tie vote that would have been a nightmare.
It was clearly a divided assembly and every vote there after indicated that.
Sounds like David's crew alright always mouthing off. They are a total embarassment to all Metis. I have been at events in Manitoba where Rose Marie, Murial and staffer Carrie Smith are all blabbing and swearing at the same time. Not very professional according to the Human Behaviour course I am taking, people who feel like they have to do this are very unhappy and insecure. She is supposed to be some director of something. I would like to see her try and get away with that behavoiur at any other agency.
