Incorrect Link
The link to the Whitefishlake First Nation under the heading "Alberta First Nations" is linked to the article regarding the Whitefish Lake Band from Ontario -- which is incorrect. 68.145.96.226 (talk) 23:16, 1 November 2010 (UTC)SWC

Stub Status
How much bigger would this artical have to be to lose stub status? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Royalguard11 (talk • contribs)

I think it's fair to remove the stub status on the article, so I've done so. —GrantNeufeld 06:47, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

Well, I won't put it back on but I suppose someone might at some point; there's not much "First Nations content" here and no mention of the treaty's impact, nor of the latter-day Treaty 6 organization, and more; exactly how much more content it needs I don't know, but certainly a MAP (duh) and a listing of the governments/bands, the importance of the treaty area in contrast to the untreated rest of the province (BC) and so on. Oh, what the hell, I'll put the NorthAm-native-stub on here; standards are evolving in the Indigenous Peoples of North America as to what such articles can contain; and I can tell you from a look here that it IS a stub, by project standards.Skookum1 17:42, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

Hello,

I think that this article is a little rough around the edges but has a lot of good information to work with. Some of the phrasing in the lead section of the article is a little awkward and could be edited for clarity. Also, a lot of the pre-existing information in the article is lacking good references and therefore could be edited and added to. Another thing that could use some editing is the organization of the article; it may be a good idea to add some new sections and to move some information around within the article.

Language X has no concept of Y
Regarding 'there is no concept of "land ownership" or "cede", which follows from the concept of land ownership, in the Cree language' - The notion of "language X has no concept of Y" is a myth. Anything expressible in one human language can be expressed in all human languages. I think there is valuable point to make in this paragraph, but the current wording is problematic and inaccurate.
