Introducing Plaintiff Anita Campbell!
Anonymous has left a new comment on your post, "Can you spell iconoclast?"
While listening to The Big CEO on Saturday's NCI Radio I couldn't help but notice that reference was made to Board Member Anita Campbell who I thought was the Metis Women of Manitoba President? So to reference her as a Board Member and not with her correct title is just plain male chauvinistic. Come on Anita, get a backbone.....and get your own office, radio time, website, constitution, etc. or get back under that burka.....

Dear Anonymous:
Thank you for writing. Presumably your reference to "The Big CEO" is President David Chartrand and the weekly radio show Metis Hour Times Two hosted by Ray St. Germain sponsored by the Manitoba Metis Federation.
From your comments you may not be completely conversant with the structure of the Manitoba Metis Federation nor are we. Here's our understanding which, hopefully, readers will correct as appropriate.
At the last General Meeting of the Metis Women of Manitoba Inc. (October 2008) Ms Campbell replaced Rosemarie McPherson as its Head.
In MMF parlance that position is referred to as Spokesperson not President who automatically sits on the Federation's Provincial Board of Directors. Over the years several have speculated Muriel Parker (former Vice-President for The Pas Region) and David Chartrand are the real "eminence gris" behind the MWM.


It's interesting to note on the MMF's website link to the Metis Women of Manitoba no one is identified as its Spokesperson nor are the 7 Regional Representatives. Anyone know who they are?

Besides Ms Campbell's bio shown below, she is also listed as: Board Member of the MMF's Thompson, Manitoba Regional Office; Chairwoman, Manitoba Hydro/Environment Committee; Committee Member, Provincial Human Resource Development Committee; and Committee Member, Executive Policy Committee.
Last but not least, she is a Plaintiff in the Federation's alleged defamation lawsuit against the now defunct www.CyberSmokeSignals.com. Readers we give you Anita Campbell.
Sincerely,
Clare L. Pieuk

This is Anita's second term as a Board of Director. Prior to this, Anita sat as the Chairperson of the Thompson Local Management Board and was the Chairperson of the Provincial Management Board for many years. For the past 25 years, Anita has been employed with the Ma-Mow-We-Tak Friendship Centre and has held the position of Executive Director since 1993. Anita has two sons, Ryan and Bradley, and one grandson Baby Ronnie. Anita's vision is to promote the involvement of all members to ensure the best interests of Metis people are addressed and that they form an integral part of the solution.
