Mysterious letter linking 1,000 people to $1B Algonquin treaty likely fake, CBC investigation finds
Algonquian Indian Research are you into this claim, are you related to the land claims of surnames there?
For decades, the Algonquins of Ontario (AOO) have been working toward a treaty with the governments of Canada and Ontario. The deal, which is near completion, involves 522 square kilometres of land and almost $1 billion.
The AOO's lawyer and chief negotiator, Robert Potts, said the money won't go to individuals but will be placed in a trust account and used for the benefit of Algonquin people. Currently, there are about 8,000 Algonquin people on the proposed beneficiaries list.
Are you related to Thomas Laguarde dit St.-Jean married to Emilie Carriere(aka Sophie) Algonquin descent. Please check the internet for more inforamtion.
It became even more suspicious after CBC conducted a search of Carriere's genealogical records on Ancestry.ca and discovered her actual baptismal record in a Catholic baptismal registry.
Veldon Coburn says about 1,000 people also rely on Carriere as a root ancestor and this revelation should cause officials to more closely examine whether she is truly Algonquin. Wow

Report of the Enrolment Officer regarding Add Ancestor requestsrelated to Respondent Replies to Root Ancestor Protest against
Thomas Laguarde dit St. Jean
Respondents’ Reply
The respondentspresent the argument that two documents show the Algonquin ancestry of EmilieCarrière (aka Sophie):
• a record of the birth of Marie Emilie Carrière whichidentifies her father as a voyageur and Algonquin (Tab 7);
• a marriage contract for Josephte Carrière, sister ofEmilie, which lists aboriginal items brought into the marriage (Tab 10)
The marriagedocument in conjunction with the baptismals of six children support theassumption that the Marie Emilie James dite Carrière that married ThomasLagarde dit St. Jean was also known as Sophie James Carrière or simply SophieCarrière. This is further supported by the information published in PioneerPortrait.
The respondentssubmitted a document from the St. Sulpice Archives as the baptism of EmilieCarrière (aka Sophie). The record is said to be from 1808 (Tab 7). Although thedate does not clearly show on the document it appears to be a legitimatedocument from the St. Sulpice Archives4 (Document #3).
The baptismal recordshows Marie Emilie Carrière as the daughter of Michel Carrière, a voyageur and Algonquin. The mother’s name is given as MarieMagdelaine Catherine Bournier dit Morget. (Document #3) The document isdifficult to read. To assist we are providing a best-efforts transcription andtranslation.
