Another online survey!

Good Day Readers:

We notice Team Godon is conducting another online survey. This time the question is:

Do you think it is undemocratic for the current leader of the MMF to be involved in suing websites that speak out against him?

To date 22 (88%) say "yes" and 3 (12%) "no." One important detail not mentioned is that the Federation is funded approximately 95% by the federal government mostly through a series of Human Resource Development Agreements with Human Resources and Skills Development Canada the rest from a handful of provincial departments.

Therefore, MMF lawyer Murray Trachtenberg (www.ptlaw.mb.ca; mtrachtenberg@ptlaw.mb.ca) is being paid with taxpayer dollars. In our view, the wording ought to be revised to ask participants whether private citizens should be sued using public money?

How many of the remaining Plaintiffs do you think would still be part of the lawsuit if they had to pay legal bills out of their own pockets? How does this litigation benefit Manitoba's Metis citizens? All it's doing is enriching Murray Trachtenberg while feeding David Chartrand's insatiable ego.

Sincerely,

Clare L. Pieuk
