ae JAW-JAW, said Winston Churchill, is better than war- war. But the old boy had it wrong. Or had never heard of Indian land claims. Take it from General Collins. There are only two ways to settle all this land claim hash. One is to take arms against that sea of troubles. The other is to become Indians ourselves. { To become an Indian, all you have to do is to learn those chants } you hear on the telly every night. Then fake a blood line and apply } at the nearest Indian Affairs of- fice. So far, legislation passed by I the lunatics in Ottawa has enabled 23,000 Indians who were never In- dians before to apply, and they're being accepted at the rate of 100a day. It's a bit like being baptized in the Funny-Mentalist religion. One moment you’re doomed, the next you're saved. (‘God bless you, brother.’’) But becoming an in- dian is better because you then get a free ride on practically } everything: no school taxes, buckshee medicare, and no rent to pay. The Lord and Ottawa provide. | You will also be in line for a lot ‘of loot when our stunned and idiotic. society finds jt has presented the red man with all the fishing and other natural resource tights. As Haida-person James “Gosnell has observed, ‘‘We own this province lock, stock and -barrel.”’ {.. If by some mischance you can’t ‘become an Indian, then the ‘best thing to Co is to send for my man i Vic and a corporal's guard from “the old (watering hole. When t-yau're faced with being pushed over a cliff, a little blunderbuss diplomacy can work wonders. Our native Indian warriors boast that they have never been conquered.

The more they read dumb editorials, you see, and watch the pasty-faced Svend Robinson, MP, jerking around on TV with a feather on his head, the madder they become. In addition to claiming everything, the Indians also claira they have never signed a treaty relinquishing control over B.C. There’s a solution to that, too. All that’s needed is pen and paper. Sign here... The Charter of Rights and Freedoms? Get lost, Ottawa. In the new Kingdom of British Col- umbia we'll do a bit of re-writing. Right now, alas, all we get is jaw-jaw, plus the above- mentioned editorials and articles telling us what a lot of rotters we are. The articles are usually writ- ten by university professors who won't even have a little red schoolhouse if the Indian brethren get what they want. At the very least, the profs would find that the restraint pro- gram over which they have been bleating so much would look like the Kiondike gold strike com- pared with what would be left after we’ve surrendered on the land claims. They are so brainy, though, that they can‘t see that. Marching in lockstep with these academic nitwits is the NDP, which represents the schoolteacher school of thought. The churches are in the parade, too. Only the other day, Anglican chiefs who want to be Indian chiefs donated $10,000 to the Haida. The schoolteacher school of thought has it that there is nothing 2999 Doug Collins © get this straight finer than surrender, and that what we took fair and square and made something of, must be relin- quished. Just like in South Africa. Bill Bennett, Brian Smith and Garde Gardom are trying to hold the fort for us, But with fifth col- umnists guarding the walls, they aren’t having it easy. Political poofterdom heaps dreck on their heads. Bear in mind that Ambleside Park has already been captured by the tribes and awaits conversion to wig-wam land. But Stanley Park will have to go before the man in the street wakes up to what is going on. As I say, friends, become In- dians yourselves or send for my man Vic and his squad. : WELCOME TO | WEST VANCOUVER KINDERGARTENS You are invited to see them in action, We offer you the Core Programme PLUS ~- Emergent Reading and Writing — French — Computers — Challenge and Enrichment | Freesia | African Violets | Daffodils 5 for 2° : 1°9 4” pot So 1% Sorry — no dofivery on these Items WE ARE PROUD OF OUR KINDERGARTENS kkk kkk k kkk kak kak Following are Open House details.
