Criminal charges for sexual assault that apparently occurred about 30 years   
   ago - by an aboriginal who has been holding many positions of trust and even   
   application of laws affecting women and children.  The real irony here is that   
   he's married to an    
   aboriginal woman who has been blaming the white man for the abuses by the   
   males in their culture.

   Grand Chief Ed John charged in B.C. with 4 counts of historic sex assault   
      
   Alleged offences date back to 1974 in Prince George, B.C.   
      
   Grand Chief Edward John has been charged with four counts of having sexual   
   intercourse with a female without her consent, the B.C. Prosecution Service   
   has announced.   
      
   The alleged offences concern a single individual and date back to 1974 in   
   Prince George, B.C.   
      
   John was appointed to the B.C. cabinet as minister for children and families   
   from November 2000 to June 2001.   
      
   He served 11 consecutive terms as an elected leader on the First Nations   
   Summit Political Executive, a run that ended in June when he did not stand for   
   re-election.

   Wilf Adam, former chief of the Lake Babine First Nation, said he was shocked   
   and devastated by the news.   
      
   "Children and especially woman are the foundation of the society and they must   
   be protected at all times," he said.   
      
   The Union of B.C. Indian Chiefs said it was deeply disappointed to learn about   
   the allegations, noting it does not have a direct employment relationship with   
   John.
