Abstract
"For years, the Manitoba Métis Federation (MMF) has been dogged by stories of internal corruption, election fraud, death threats and vicious in-fighting. For the first time, an investigative reporter gets past the shroud of secrecy and fear masking the organization to find out what's really going on.
The MMF claims to be the only legitimate voice of the Métis in Manitoba, but little of the millions of public dollars poured into the organization annually ends up helping the poor and marginalized Métis.
From the early days of the Métis to the heady days of the Charlottetown Accord when Métis leader Yvon Dumont walked shoulder to shoulder with Brian Mulroney and Joe Clark - to behind-the-scenes deals, hidden companies, slush funds, the influence of the Los Bravos motorcycle gang, and government collusion -Jones Morrison unmasks the MMF and reveals it for what it really is - rotten to the core."--Amazon.
