Board members of the Ontario Metis and Aboriginal Association have voted to disband because of the organization's crippling financial situation.

A series of bad business deals, including the purchase of a city hotel, lead to the Oct. 2 vote, said Ron Swain, president of the association.

"They incurred enormous deficits over the last few years," said Swain. "It was

not feasible to continue. We are $4.5 million in debt. If we get fair market value for our holdings and real estate, we'd still be $2.6 million in the hole."

I don't know about other people but to me, political revelation is often inspired by the strangest places. It was another lonely Friday night, the kind I've been seeing much too regularly. And in those wee hours of the morning I found myself sitting on my couch in front of the television set, munching from a bowl of popcorn lightly seasoned with low-fat margarine, when an image I remembered from my childhood flashed across the screen.

Dear Mr. Crowfoot:

We have received many letters of complaint about a story which appeared in our magazine Jughead's Double Digest #19. The letters criticized us and rightly so, for a panel in which one of our characters, Reggie, made reference to "going Native."
