Montana you need to do what Alaska has done with Indian suicide prevention

Montana you need to be like Alaska when it comes to solving Indian suicide prevention.  You need to let the individual tribes take the lead.  In Alaska they have the native non profit corporations take the lead.  You also need to allow economic development on the Indian reservations.  Let Indian country decided issues on their own land.  Many Western including my home state of Washington have this mentally you need to make Indian country do it our way.  This is the wrong approach.  Here is the problem before 1900 we had a part of our history that was wrong that is to kill the Indian instead of adapt to their lifestyle.  In 1850's we created the Bureau of Indian affairs this would distribute lands for development.  Here is the problem we would tell the Indian you need to go over there because we will not settle there.  That is where the reservation would be.  Want a good example look at where the Spokanes, Snoqualmis, Tuliap, Nisquali, Nez Perce, Colvilles and the Yakamas there were corralled to an area that would not be developed.  If wanted to buy the land it is cheap.  Just go to Sunnyside.  In Alaska and Hawaii since the reservation was inhumane they created the native non profit corporation which is the reservation.  They hope this would fail but they succeeded.  There were only two tribes that received land that is Metlakalta and Vientiete.  The polynesian people were done the same way.  Montana you need to ask the tribes and let the elders teach suicide prevention the traditional way.  You need to respect the way the Indian country does it let them do.  The one race fits all approach does not work.  Montana look to Alaska for what they did with suicide prevention.
