Director Pine / A Snob?

Sault Ste. Marie, Mi...Tribal Internet writer's excite Director Pine's supporters. She made reference to this fact some time ago. In her first unit report the director gives Internet writer's a left handed compliment...awarding them with dubious credit for getting her elected.

But this is what Director Pine is all about: sending encoded messages to her supporters which she believes only they will understand. Just as she has encoded the behaviors of the real Anishanaabe.. kind and respectful people who are capable of unconditional love...she also has encoded the behaviors of Internet writer's...as those people who don't understand the ways of the real Anishanaabe.

Her reference to Internet writer's is delivered with tongue-in-cheek. It's almost as though she believes she has the market cornered when it comes to kindness and understanding.

What is missing from the paragraph, however...is simple honesty. Despite the fact that she makes reference to truth as being a real anishnabe value, she doesn't come across herself as being an 'honest In-jun'. Quite to the contrary, whereas Native Americans were known for their personal courage and honesty, director Pine comes across as someone who's a snob...as though she's putting on airs.

Thank you, Charles Forgrave

Deb knows everything and if there is something she don't know her husband knows it. A legend in her own mind.

Deb has always had an attitude of superiority. Too bad she does not practice what she preaches. She has now come out and tried to say she was using Indian Humor to deflect all the negative comments about her during the campaign. But she has yet to explain her behavior in her trying to garner board support to dropping the lawsuit the night before the mediation. Nor has she stated why she had to be voted out of the proceedings instead of excusing herself. Her husband is a nice person. Too bad he does not know what she was up to all the while he was off at school.....

Influence Peddling
We have a newly elected that has started her government career with an amateur influence peddling stunt.
Was it a crime?
Is there justification for a recall?
Who was she representing?
Should the tribal attorney that snapped up her offering be required to answer a few questions?
Did she place her personal agenda ahead of the will of the people?
We know of her sad life as a child at risk that had so many deficits. She learned how to be an abuser and corrupt a system from the best. She is now translating that into her efforts in government.
We will have to watch this girl carefully and make her accountable for such foolishness.
Such immaturity and reckless behavior will only add to the pile of S**T she brings with her

Our right to make changes through referendum is the one voice we have left....use it.
