A federal court judge has overturned a decision removing Poundmaker Cree Nation\u2019s grossly dirty chief Duane Antoine and his council, ruling the process used to invalidate the 2024 election was unfair and biased.
\n\"\"
\nThe April 10 ruling means the bogus leadership elected in the May 22, 2024 vote remains in office, though the election itself remains disputed. The court didn’t rule on whether the election itself was valid, but found the process used to overturn it was flawed.
\n\"\"
\nThe Election Appeal Tribunal described unauthorized additions to voter lists, lack of proper election notice, discrepancies in ballot counts and that inducements such as trips or payouts were offered to influence votes. The tribunal ordered a new election for all positions, directing the sitting chief and councillors to leave office immediately.
\n\"\"
\nThe court found the tribunal exceeded its authority under the election regulations it relied on, ruling it had no power to ban individuals from future elections or impose new eligibility requirements, including mandatory criminal record checks. The decision states the tribunal \u201clacked jurisdiction to prohibit Chief Antoine (or any PCN member) from running for office in future elections.\u201d The original decision issued by tribunal members Lester Bugler, Sharon Baptiste and Delainee Antoine-Tootoosis was thrown out entirely.<\/p>\n

Poundmaker First Nation had all but shuttered itself after the announcement of an Indigenous Services Canada forensic audit in August 2025. The band website is non-functional and the FaceBook page<\/a> refers to the band office being closed. Poundmaker is intimately linked to Little Pine First Nation<\/a>. The common insiders virtually ran away from the November Little Pine election.

Battlefords Tribal Council (BTC) operates through Northwest Professional Services Corp. 1201 102nd St. North Battleford, SK. S9A 1G2. (306) 445 \u2013 1383. BTC and Battlefords Agency Tribal Chiefs (BATC) are two separate organizations. Break away organization BATC used to be part of BTC. The split was due to the financial control of puppet master white man Randy Wallace and his partner in crime Wayne Semaganis. BTC comprised Little Pine First Nation, Lucky Man Cree Nation, Mosquito, Grizzly Bear\u2019s Head, Lean Man First Nation, and Poundmaker Cree Nation. MGBHLM split and is now one of the seven First Nations under BATC.
\nBTC unveiled a $230m development plan December 10 that includes a new casino. Mouthpiece is the dirty as hell Wayne Semaganis of Little Pine infamey.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

The project, called Gold Eagle Landing, is touted as one of the largest Indigenous-led developments in Saskatchewan. A new Gold Eagle Casino, hotel and spa would anchor the complex. BTC is proposing to build the new arena on city-owned land. BTC says it will donate land valued at about $5m and contribute $15m to match the city\u2019s expected investment. BTC adviser white man puppet master Randy Wallace said the casino and arena plan is designed to be financially linked. Where precisely the additional $200m is coming from isn’t spelled out. BTC\u2019s announcement comes amid a public dispute with Mosquito Grizzly Bear\u2019s Head Lean Man First Nation (MGBHLM) over who holds authority for future casino development in the Battlefords.
\n\"\"
\nMGBHLM Chief Tanya Stone rejected BTC\u2019s claims, saying her First Nation is the lawful landholder and decision-maker for all development on its reserve. \u201cBTC does not hold a headlease for the Gold Eagle Casino and therefore has no authority, jurisdiction, or decision-making role on Mosquito Grizzly Bear\u2019s Head Lean Man First Nation lands,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll decisions related to land use, development, and governance rest solely with MGBHLM First Nation.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nThe storm clouds finally approaching for convicted thief Poundmaker Chief Duane Antoine are towering and massive. His latest thievery is very likely in the millions if not tens of millions. A press release that was widely distributed in 2023 called for Chief Duane Antoine of Poundmaker Cree Nation to resign citing $10.7 million in debt and serious financial mismanagement of band funds.
\n\"\"
\nPoundmaker Chief Duane Antoine has been looting the funds of his people for many, many years. Cops are involved, and for proof of that the band of thieves says so themselves.
\n\"\"
\n\"\"
\nTeddy Antoine was a former chief of the Poundmaker First Nation. He is the brother of current Poundmaker Chief Duane Antoine. His claim to fame besides being a convicted thief of band funds with his brother is as an ‘Indigenous and Metis housing consultant’ with BestBuy Homes<\/a>. He also pulls down $7k per month as chair of the Battlefords Tribal Chiefs (BTC) economic development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\nAdding great insult to injury, a 2016 Federal Court class action lawsuit<\/a> of Chief Duane Antoine sued the federal government for $3 billion over alleged mismanagement of First Nation’s oil and gas rights. That lawsuit seems to have disappeared after rumours Antoine was paid to settle by the IOCG. Its said the lawsuit was settled in 2022.
