SAULT TRIBE FACTS - If it is not a fact it must be fiction................................

To all concerned tribal members,

It is apparent that there may not be enough time to have a special election before the term of Joe McCoy's Chairman's seat is up. It is even more apparent that Aaron Payment is getting nervous as he is concerned Vice-Chairman Lana Causley may be appointed Chairperson for the remainder of McCoy's term.

We must remember that Aaron Payment was part of the administration that allowed Felon, Fred Paquin, now serving a year in federal prison, to abuse his power and steal from the Federal Government. There is a real possibility that Aaron Payment will be the target of a federal investigation for abuses of the office of Chairman of the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians.

Time and time again I hear that we need to let our ELECT officials make decisions we elected them for. Those decision include appointing a chairman if the seat is vacated before the term is up. In one of our recent tribal news publications ex-chairman Joe McCoy chastised the membership for asking for a referendum because of the expense.

We now have another ex-chairman, Aaron Payment, urging our elected officials to spend more money on a special election to fill the chairman's seat that will be decided by the membership anyway in little over a year. History tells us that ex-chairman Aaron Payment, has little regard for spending money as one of his first directives as chairman was to put a private shower in his office.

It's time our elected officials make responsible decisions. We have an ex-chairman, Aaron Payment that has been out of the loop. wanting to come back for a little over a year and make decisions on things that our sitting board knows more about right now. There are 12 sitting board members to choose from to fill the chairmans seat for the remainder of the term.

Hose' McCoy could not keep his zipper up.

The Sault Tribe will definitely be better off without Joe Eitrem and especially bouschor. Both were only there for the money and nothing else. bouschor bankrupted the tribe and Eitrem is just as stupid. Pine is no better. She is just as ignorant as both bouschor and eitram. She won't last with her personality. No respect for elders or for anyone except for herself and a few board members.

You obviously have no respect of elders either. Joe Eitrem is an elder. It's people like you that create most problems in the world anyways. Saying what people are and what people do and don't take a second to look at yourself. The tribe is take a HUGE loss with Eitrem gone, ask many of the board members that you voted probably voted for.
