A part of me really wants to see this happen, and stand back and be amused when they wind up jailed and/or homeless because of their delusions. There's a similar delusional militia type, "Irene Peace" who spouts the same claims and lost her home, and now wanders around giving workshops to make ends meet.
But part of me also wonders when some rightwinger will start pointing to her and the "federation" to try and discredit legit NDN movements like Idle No More.
Superdog, I didn't see where the federation denounced her.
You just may get your wish....on the GTIF page she wrote:
https://www.facebook.com/pages/Great-Turtle-Island-Federation/447893181927883?ref=ts&fref=ts&filter=2"I have a question about reclaiming lost lands in the Canadian region of GTIF.
I'm about to inform the bank that has the mortgage on the house that I am claiming the land and all that is on it under the "Reclaiming Lost Lands Clause". I'm claiming m neighbors house too since I'm in a joint unit.
Is there any statutes et all that I can refer to?
Btw, I don't want to do any paperwork either, that's colonial thinking

Gotta love it....their own craziness haunting them in a big way.
But they don't like her. A few people have posted to notify them of her, but GTIF seems well aware. If you change the tab in the middle of the page to "posts by page" you get this post by GTIF:

Followed up by:
"If A Nation Makes The Clam Of Who Their Respective Representatives Are, Or Who Their Chiefs Are And What Treaty They Are Asserting, Then They Have That Right To Do So. But, If They Claim To Be The Reincarnation Of Jesus, Or Sitting Bull, Or Of Another Spiritual Deity And Also Claim That They Represent The Great Turtle Island Federation As Well, Then We Will Deny That We Have Anything To Do With That Individuals Claims, So What We Are Stating Is That We Cannot Be Responsible For The Individuals Claim.

She's not mentioned by name in these posts, but it's pretty clear, along with other the other members posts about her, that they are trying to actively separate themselves from Sampson.
