Could you have kept a straight face?

The world's leading producer of hot air has been discussing indigenous people and the like:

"As is the Forum’s tradition, the sixth session was opened with an invocation from Tracy L. Shenandoah, Chief of the Onondaga Nation, Eel Clan. Acknowledging Red Willow as the leader of medicines, he said the creator had planted medicines, including berries, for people to use. He also gave thanks to the birds, especially the eagle, and to the “three sisters” of all foods: corn, beans and squash. He also gave thanks to the waters for their help in creating peace. His statement was followed by a performance by the Laihui cultural group from Manipur, India".
