Know this, if the Metis fail at the Provincial level, the tax payers of this country will be paying for the litigation to proceed through higher levels of the Justice system. Work hard my friend and pay lots of taxes to help with this silliness.
The conclusion is foregone, the highest law in the land states they have the right to harvest for food and other purposes. The Metis lawyers have won at the highest levels of the court system and are now winning at the lower court level.

Metis already have the right to harvest for subsistence...Powley assures that. This court case isn't about their right to subsistence hunting, it's about where they can extend that right. I hope it does go to the supreme court and Powley is upheld and we can end this once and for all.
