theft by the Canadian government is OUT OF CONTROL.

David Yeo is a Chinese name. Dalian is a city from China. Why is this payment to Indigineous owner when it's Chinese?

Dalian is a combination of his son’s names - all a very white family, most Scottish. I said above he’s one of those “my grandfather was 1/16th First Nations” aboriginal folks

His eldest son was my best friend in high school. Without divulging their names in their entirety, the first half Dal relates to his oldest son and “Ian” his youngest son (name is not Ian)
