DL: What do you think of the treaties?
MT: A lot of them were broken and a lot of them were government that didn’t know the people and they made a falsehood out of the whole thing. They didn’t serve the purpose. They took the land and then didn’t honor the treaties. And you see most treaties that is the case.
