MNN: HARPR CALLS IN SELL-OUTS

mnnlogo1  HARPER CALLS IN SELL-OUTS 

MNN.  Jan. 4, 2013. Harper, take some food to Chief Theresa Spence now, she’s hungry!  Canada’s Prime Minister did not call in the Haudenosaunee or the traditional people.  He doesn’t want to hear the truth. 

Harper wants poverty in the midst of plenty.  So on January 11th he is calling in his band council puppets to tighten their strings inside a cozy warm meeting room.  Not outside next to Chief Spence’s wigwam. Harper’s worried because his subsidiary corporation, AFN, is screwing up his timeline for his genocide business plan.

Harper wants to change “Idle No More” to “Indian No More”.   It’s a PR nightmare for him, the Corporation of Canada and their bankster shareholders. He and his puppets have all taken an oath to the Queen of England.  They need ever more money to control us and stop our disobedience.

His Indians won’t demand the re-negotiation of the Guswentha, or for us to govern our continent, or to relinquish their power.  They left the canoe and jumped onto the colonial ship.  All the buckskin and feathers won’t bring them back. Having one foot in each vessel is forbidden.  Their job was always to divide, conquer and continue the illusions.  They broke our laws of survival.  

We want nothing less than national liberation, freedom and independence! The bankers’ empire will be eliminated.  We call for their orderly withdrawal from Great Turtle Island. The Two Row Wampum/Guswentha of June 25, 1701 gave the settlers the right to live here in peace.  This was breached.  Now they are squatters and have to legalize their presence here. 

Every dictatorship has to end.  No more plundering and murdering of innocent people, with the help of their artificial Indians.

Canada knows their Indigenous landlords are ungovernable. They are threatened by our forthcoming independence on our own land. They don’t want us to be of one mind.  That will eliminate war. To protect their lie, they need another false flag to give themselves a reason to arrest us, suppress our human rights and freedom of speech and call us “terrorists”.

Our job is to carry the burden of peace. We won’t use bombs, burn buildings, cut electricity, sever transportation and lights, erect razor wire, fly over with choppers and jets, stab children as they did to us at Oka in 1990.  [See “Acts of Defiance” on MNN homepage]. 

We will be recognized as a sovereign state by the community of nations. Canada will hand over responsibility for foreign relations, security and immigration immediately to us, as was agreed in the Guswentha.   

Resistance is only beginning.  Our beloved land will be free and independent forever, as she was always meant to be.  We will be respected by every nation in the world for the great people we’ve always been.  We will take our proper place at the table of nations. No longer will the occupiers usurp our right to rule.   We will end the theft of our vast lands, our freedom and stop the unimaginable suffering of our peoples.  Only true indigenous thinking will bring us peace. 

As Robbie Robertson sang:  “In circles we gather.  Moonlight fires are healing, taking us back, just make us go back.  Beating hearts as one, you’re in Indian country.  This is Indian country”. Robbie Roberson:Stomp Dance

MNN: CANADA AT WAR, OKA 1990

Posted on by

mnnlogo1CANADA AT WAR:  OKA 1990 

MNN.  Jan. 3, 2013.  Truth prevailed and only we can control our destiny.  Dekanawida instructed us to transform war into peace, to bring everyone to one mind.  We are telling Prime Minister Harper and his invading soldiers and police to refute the New World Order and sit in the shade of the Great Tree of Peace.  Otherwise they might be buried along with all the conflicts they have created. 

Army & Warrior faceoff 1990

Army & Warrior faceoff 1990

In 1990 when we objected to our burial and ceremonial grounds being turned into a golf course, Canada sent 5,000 heavily armed para-military police, RCMP and soldiers to surround us.  

The Corporation of Canada declared total war on us, using old Greek tactics.  The army laid a siege around us. Food was stopped to starve us to death.  People were imprisoned.  We could not go in or out of the razor wired compound.  Energy and communication were turned off.  After three months, they demanded we surrender or they would open fire on us.  We had to come out. The army brutalized and arrested us. Thousands of people ran to Oka, surrounded the army, helped some of us escape, protected the children and elders.  

Illegal charges were laid on us, which did not stick.  We proved that what we did was political and not criminal.  It was under the guidance of the Great Law.  We were sanctioned by Creation.  

Some soldiers told us later they were trained to carry out atrocities on us, such as racial slurs, hitting, spitting, brutalizing the women and children and even stabbing one child in the chest.  

We learned some strategies ourselves:  to stay dispersed; to keep some outside for communication, food runs and bail money; and to organize people to come to our rescue. Today’s flash mobs are effective guerilla tactics where we suddenly show up, do a round dance and then leave. 

LRAD attack

LRAD attack

During these occasions, security could bring in the cops to surround us, provoke riots, beat and then arrest us. We usually bring our children, so we would be unable to physically resist.  They will use the latest crowd control urban warfare methods, such as LRAD, a long range acoustic device and sonic weapon.  It sends pain inducing sounds that could burst our ear drums.  Now drones can be fired at us legally.  

In 1990 our sell-outs set up nearby to translate Mohawk into French and to advise the police and army. The time has come for all to assess our native and non-native allies.  

Afterwards this same elite Canadian airborne regiment was sent to Somalia to commit the same atrocities against the natives there.  

The UN, US and Canada are the New World Order.  We have the goods they want and need. We intend to eliminate the divide and conquer war strategy of the bankers who own the UN, US and Canada corporations. The idea that whoever has the money makes the rules is finished. The bankers’ money printing machines will be shattered.  They will be arrested and jailed for their fraud and crimes, and deported. 

The council of Women and the Council of Men will re-establish the peace.  It is a natural duty. The land is owned by the future  seven generations.  We are borrowing it from them. We will do everything necessary to take care of it for them.  We are fighting for our identity and rights to control our lives, territories, commerce and way of life.  

The administrators of Canada’s genocide, the band and tribal councils, tried to take over the “Idle No More” agenda.  These colonial serpents are not welcome. They are preparing to meet Harper on January 24th, which Chief Spence may attend if she has not died of hunger.

As Memphis Slim sang:  “You may not have me all the time.  You may never go my way.  Mother Earth is laying for you, because of all the debt you’ve got to pay.  Don’t care how great you are.  Don’t care what you’re worth.  When it all ends up, you’ve gotta go back to Mother Earth.”

MNN: CANADA’S DEATH CAMPS

Posted on by

mnnlogo1CANADA’S DEATH CAMPS 

MNN.  Jan. 2, 2013.  The “Indian” reserves are concentration camps for Indigenous people, designed to breed hopelessness, suicides and eventually death. The world is seeing hunger striker Chief Theresa Spence as a victim of this policy. 

The main function of reserves is genocide to purge Canada of their “undesirable elements”, the owners of the land, to get our resources. 

Oka Mohawk Crisis 1990

Oka Mohawk Crisis 1990

Fences were built around us.  We needed passes to get in or out.  Indian agents and band councilors were trained to be wardens.  These prisoner of war camps were set up on Oct. 24th 1924 by Duncan Campbell Scott, the Superintendent of Indian Affairs, the real power of the colony at the time. The Indian Act was the Corporation of Canada by law, to carry out the “final solution of the Indian problem”, that is the total extermination of our people.  By 1950 Canada proudly boasted there were only 89,000 of us left. 

Over 100 million of our people in the Western Hemisphere perished in the biggest holocaust in humanity.  

Prime Minister Pudge Harper and Jim Flaherty’s Bill C-45 is singling out our children for destruction. 

Flaherty & Pudge Harper

Flaherty & Pudge Harper

Our children were grabbed and taken to the residential school death camps.  Since 1924 almost half died from starvation, exposure, brutality, disease and murder.  In the 1930s Nazi doctors were invited by Canada to do medical research on our children and then kill them. 

Some death camps were near population centres to use us as cheap labor, for prostitution rings and sex slaves for the local elite and to be sacrified in ritualistic murders by the pedophile clergy.   

On Dec. 21, 2012 Pope Ratzinger said that, “… child rape isn’t bad.  It is normal back in his time.  Pedophilia isn’t absolute evil.  Child pornography is normal in society.  There is no good or evil.  Only better than or worse than.” 

The Nazis studied these extermination and death camps as a model for their concentration camps.  Their first ones were called residential schools.  Hitler told the US, “Don’t point your finger at me.  Look what you’ve done”.  

Band councils are the camp commandants, who run these camps for the multinational corporation of Canada, for the gradual disappearance of our people. The reason was to extract every resource beneath our feet.  

Indian Band councils knowingly facilitate the efficient disintegration of our people.  Near Chief Spence’s community of Attawapiskat the DeBeers Diamond Co. built a modern settlement with plumbing and hydro for the workers in the mines. The native people are being poisoned to death from the environmental destruction.  DeBeers wants them removed so they can destroy everything.  The CEO of DeBeers told the CEO of Canada, Harper, not to speak to Chief Spence.    

We will not use force of arms, arrests, prisons and assassinations even though the enemy is using brute force on us.  

Our power is in the home and the community.  To defend ourselves we need a strong military and civilian defence structure.  We have the right to protect ourselves.  We will never leave our land.  

Our men will safeguard our communities so that that our women and men can set up functioning councils. Our home communities will not be dismantled.  The genocide programs and their administrators will be dismantled. The Corporation of Canada and their band councils are criminal organizations and will pay for their crimes. If there is no apparatus to enforce their will, they can’t exist.  

periscopeWe will assert ourselves as the true people of Onowaregeh, Great Turtle Island.  The Corporation of Canada is an illegal entity that is a homeless boat nation.  Maybe the defunk shareholders will find a new home to practice their Admiralty Law.  Like the Beatles sang, “So we sailed into the sun til we found a sea of green, and we lived beneath the waves in our yellow submarine”.

C-45 IS UN AGENDA 21

Posted on by

THE CREATION OF ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT.  

mnnlogo1

MNN.  28 Dec. 2012.  Prime Minister “Pudge” Harper faces the final dissolution of the corporation of Canada. He and his cabinet signed C-45 into law.  It’s an unconstitutional illegal corporate by-law to enhance UN Agenda 21 to set up a one world government.  To do this Canada has to take over all our land and resources through a hostile corporate take over.  UN Agenda 21 is forcing changes to our lives worldwide.  Harper has consulted mostly CEOs of banks, foreign oil companies and dictators. 

Canada is trying to control and threaten us, reduce protection of our communities and millions of our lakes and rivers.  Our communities can be leased through scam votes. The government can call a meeting of their band council and a few followers to vote to absolutely surrender our land.  This vote will be deemed to have been assented to by the entire community, even though the community was never consulted.  

All parks and selected lands will be UN protectorates.  The Niagara Escarpment is a world biosphere protectorate ceded to the UN.agenda21

Agenda 21 has laid out a depopulation plan called “sustainable development”, controlled by the UN and a one world government run by a small group of bankers.    

Sustainable human settlement development means they will go into poor Indigenous areas to take our resources to the elite in rich countries. We will be moved to densely populated areas to make our lands available. Our lands will become “wild lands’ where we will not be allowed to live or even traverse.  That is why our communities like Attawapiskat are not being developed. Band councils, special law enforcement and consensus structures are being designed to implement this fiendish scheme in our communities. 

The fire inside the Indigenous people, past, present and future, cannot be extinguished. We are facing Harper’s war machines that are mounting what he thinks is the ‘final solution’.  He is trying to take our rights, lives and possessions. Harper, you can keep your corporate artificial band councils and their followers.  The rest of us, you are going to answer directly to us!  

Their desperate corporate pyramid is coming apart.  They cannot save themselves by larceny, lying, attacking and threatening.  Their guns are turning on themselves.  Individualism is being replaced by collectivism, lies by truth, war by peace. 

We Kanionkehaka saw the conflict in 1990 and learned the lessons of war.  We stood up on the Guswentha [Two Row Wampum] and the Kaianerekowa [Great Law of Peace].  

We were never ashamed to resist when they tried coming into our homes with guns.  We didn’t stand there and turn the other cheek.  We did not run from the conflicts.  We ran to it, like to Kanehsatake when the Quebec police opened fire on the Mohawks. Our brothers and sisters came from everywhere to help us.  

Theresa Spence of Attawapiskat could die from hunger.  We must run to her, not away from her.  When we burn tobacco we embark on a journey, to practice, uphold and enforce the great law, the true order of the natural world. apocalypto2-2

You hit us in the face.  We are running to the conflict as we are directed by the law of the land.  You better remember our faces and those who could not be here or are now gone.  We will proudly defend our Mother Earth. 

Harper, you better watch out! ACDC sang:  “Kicked in the teeth again.  Sometimes you lose.  Sometimes you win.  Kicked in the teeth again.  Ain’t this misery ever gonna end.  And I’ve been kicked in the teeth, kicked in the teeth, kicked in the teeth again”.  Harper, it’s a losing battle.  Make sure your dental plan is paid up.

MNN. INDIGENOUS LIBERATION

Posted on by

mnnlogo1MNN.  INDIGENOUS LIBERATION

MNN.  Dec. 25, 2012.  Prime Minister Harper has declared war!  Gear up for liberation! For hundreds of years we Indigenous People of the Western Hemisphere have seen the enormity of  destruction of our land and lives by foreign occupiers.  They placed us under economic sanctions.  We always resisted.  Nazi harper

Our right to protect human life is absolute.  Harper is a political assassin for deliberately legislating C-45 to enhance the deplorable living conditions of our people.    Letting hunger striker Theresa Spence of the Cree Nation die in her tipi in Ottawa is murder. She has a legitimate right to express herself as she sees fit.  He is no different from a Nazi war criminal, trying to weaken her fight against injustice.  villageHer death would prove he is an “Economic Hit Man” for the corporations.  She is responding to the economic and political strategies that are brutalizing her northern community of Attawapiskat. Her life is the only weapon she has to defend us from the enemy’s continuous attack. 

Many feel the least Prime Minister Harper can do is to visit Spence to tell her he doesn’t want her to die.  Otherwise his position is provocation.  The war against started the day the foreigners arrived.  Aggression is through outright killing and administering a program of genocide.  Police, courts, unemployment.  We are characterized as enemies, demons, sub-humans.

We have a right to resist annihilation, to struggle as freedom fighters, to fight for self-determination, which is legal in international law.  We want freedom and to fulfill our potential as individuals and social beings.  We have no leaders.  We will regain control of our usurped land and lives. Canada must lift their crippling economic sanctions, halt their systemic oppression, respect our inherent rights and better our living conditions as we see it.        

Canada uses raw power on us. We were not consulted on the invasion of these foreigners.  We have every right to resist the continuing effort to bring about our physical death, incursions, raids, arrests, threats, imprisonment, suppression of our economic activity and being denied our political rights.

We will derail Canada’s economy for selling our possessions to foreigners without our knowledge and consent. Our local businesses are raided and dissolved so we cannot have a livelihood to put food on the tables of our people.

Ordinary Indigenous People are using the internet to fire the most deadly assault weapon in the world – the truth. We are resistance.  We are reasonable.  The impact of the movement is coming home to roost.  Harper’s corporate media is minimizing coverage, because “The Revolution Will Not Be Televised”.         

Deploying soldiers would incur heavy economic and financial costs.  Native police forces collaborate with them to monitor, control and threaten those who fight against imperialism.  At a moment’s notice they can become the para-military ART Aboriginal Response Team [secret Indian cops]. 

The corporation of Canada cannot legally banish our right to protect our land, resources and people.  We refuse the crumbs they throw our way for submitting to them. Oppression is heading out the door.    

This is a war of the mind. We will struggle until the wrongs are righted.  Canada’s reputation is being demoralized worldwide.  It offers a secure and prosperous lifestyle for their fellow foreigners, all based on the theft of our possessions.  Its white population is now a minority.  Ignoring the high unemployment, Canada is bringing in outside slaves to work for very little without benefits.  We won’t allow that.  We are united and cohesive.  Our anger has exploded.  Their attack on us does not bring fear.  It brings action.  A new level of outrage and resistance is coming. 

Canada prefers to negotiate with their compliant band and tribal councils they have illegally placed in our communities.  They’re job is to make concessions on our behalf. These well paid traitors and their voters do not speak for us!  Any so-called leader that does not express our legitimate aspirations will be cast side.  Their councils, national, provincial and territorial organizations exist to help impoverish us and our communities. 

Canada is calling us ‘terrorists’; ghettoizing us; imprisoning us and those who help us; and make false reports on us.  Terrorists, a made up term, to withhold civil rights to unjustly deal with those who do not agree with their aspiration to rule the world.    

US and Canada are controlled by the financial-media-military-industrial complex against the interests of the local Indigenous people.  They are trying to keep us in a permanent state of dependence, it’s too late. 

Artificial corporate powers are temporary and will ultimately collapse.  The time has come to dissolve them.  It is defunked, illegal and bankrupt.  They owe everything they have to us.

Canada is a colonizing power, a direct violation of the UN Charter and international law. Canada, an indigent corporation, has no right on our land. They are not the natural inhabitants.  Onowaregeh, Great Turtle Island, is inhabited by us, the Ongwehonwe.  Foreigners are trying to exterminate our political, economic, social, educational, cultural, religious, historical and geographical existence.  These make our resistance legitimate.  

We are ready to put in a reign of justice and peace for the well being of mankind.  We must do everything in our power to live and safeguard our children and those our Earth Mother is releasing to us in the future.  

womenOur path to peace reminds us of the Beatles’ song, “The long and winding road that leads to your door will never disappear.  I’ve seen that road before.  It always leads me here, leads me to your door.”

MNN. IDLE NO MORE MAPQUEST

Posted on by

mnnlogo1IDLE NO MORE MAPQUEST 

MNN,  Dec. 24, 2012.  We call for the reinstatement of the only legal contract allowing the settlers to live here, the Guswentha [Two Row Wampum].   It is the basis of the Great Peace of Montreal 1701.   According to international law, having reneged on this contract, everything reverts back to one day before it was ratified on June 25 1701.  They refuse to abide by it.  Their default of their contractual obligations to live in peace and be of one mind with us has been nullified and void.  They are illegal occupiers, squatters.

Prime Minister Harper, also known as “Pudge”, what are you waiting for? t spenceTo let Theresa Spence of Attawapiskat die in her tipi in the cold, not far from your nice warm mansion at 24 Sussex in Ottawa, which sits on our land?  Go see her today.  Take her some food.  She is hungry.  We want her to live.  You seem to want her to die.  Why?    

tipi

sussex drive

According to the natural law of Onowaregeh [Great Turtle Island], the Women must take over our communities.  According to the Kaianerehkowa, [Great Law of Peace], we have the jurisdiction and duty to protect our children and the land we are bringing them into.  On these issues the men get their authority from us. 

To implement our rights, all borders will now be fully monitored by the Ongwehonwe Women. Immigrants will no longer be told we are extinct or pacified. We will decide who comes onto our land and receives benefits from us.  Not foreign corporations who are wrecking everything and raping Mother Earth.  These artificial entities can no longer trespass on us.

parliamentWe demand control of all resources and immigration.  Their artificial economic system is based on debt, war, oppression and death.  We will end this.  Instead of declaring war, CEO “Pudge’ Harper of Corporation Canada must come to us and discuss their deficit owed to us, their landlords.          

His Band councils set up under the genocidal “Indian Act” signed the illegal treaties [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, etc.}.  They are all fraudulent because they breach the Guswentha.  Their system is causing Theresa Spence’s hunger.  They and their supporters are the “Indian’ agents who are working with their masters to try to annihilate us.  They must step down and stand up their Council of Women under traditional law, the key to peace.  The councils and their followers can dissolve into the Corporation of Canada and leave our communities because they are in violation of the Guswentha.  We remind these Indian agents they have committed treason under the Great Law.    

Where are those Indian cigarette millionaires who are abusing the Great Law to make themselves filthy rich?  Owistah is the disease that prevents us from becoming of one mind.  We must return to the ‘we’ to stop the white divide-and-conquer serpent.  As Sitting Bull said, “Money soon gone, but land is forever”.

There is no need for police, jails and imperialism.  Each person has a duty to act on behalf of the Great Law of Peace.  Our responsibility is to our Mother Earth everywhere. 
Everyone can take shelter under the great Tree of Peace.      

Nobody freed the Palestinians.  They freed themselves.   We Indigenous everywhere must also free ourselves.  We have to break the chains that bind. Everything comes from within each person.  We cannot rely on the invaders whose mandate is total extermination of us so they can have free title of the Western Hemisphere.     

one peopleNo one in the world can stop us from becoming free.   We are on the path to world peace, skennen, and the weather spirits are marching with us.

MNN: IDLE NO MORE. Editorial

Posted on by

mnnlogo1MNN:  IDLE NO MORE.  Editorial 

MNN.  Dec. 12, 2012.  The Assembly of First Nations AFN and Iroquois Caucus IC merged their corporations on December 4th 2012. The Iroquois Caucus represents the band councils on the Mohawk communities in Canada, not the legitimate Mohawk people or Iroquois Confederacy.  They take credit for our grassroots activism.  In fact they worked behind the scenes to help their benefactors, the Canadian government, to try to silence us and continue the illusion of freedom.  

The AFN represents the other colonial band councils in Canada.  It appears that these two corporate branches are at the forefront of the ‘Idle No More’ movement or taking over the agenda. They are trying to give the impression that all Indians follow the Indian Act, which is a lie. 

The merger is supposed to be the start of a combative relationship between the AFN and the federal government.  How? Both lobby groups are being paid by the corporation of Canada. 

The Iroquois Caucus has nothing to do with resisting the colonists.  They are well paid to pacify, confuse us and make sure that the true Confederacy cannot institute the Great Law of Peace.    

They have no legal right to enter into any negotiations involving our people, land and resources.   They only represent the band council corporate Indians and the voters in the reserve elections.  Grassroots peoples will not be sitting at the negotiating table when these three corporations [AFN, IC and Canada] wheel and deal away our resources and place more genocidal restrictions on us. 

Prime Minister Harper is frustrated over AFN’s failure to shut us up and make us subservient.  His fascist bill C [whatever!] will create more starvation, imprisonment and death from economic, racial, cultural, spiritual genocide.  Every successful independent Indigenous business is criminalized.   Harper wants a new team of super obedient Indians.  As the Economic Hitman says, “Don’t worry about the people. Just think about you and your family”.  

The 1924 Indian Advancement Act placed us under the most oppressive economic sanctions of any people on earth, to try to starve us into submission.  The reserves were and still are prisoners of war camps.  To eat we are forced into oppression.  They want to remove us to take our resource rich land for the multinational corporations and to create toxic garbage dumps.  [Attawapiskat, Keshachewan, Akwesasne, Kahnawake, Tyendinaga, etc.].  

The “It’s-No-Use” AFN met recently in the Gatineau to tell us how bad and hopeless everything is and practically told us we had to keep on living with it.    

The delegates crossed the Ottawa River to march on Parliament Hill and tried to enter the House of Commons.  The scuffle was over in an instant.  The government knew it was their puppets and could slam the door in their faces.  According to the Indian Act the Indians are not allowed to go in.  

parley

The true ongwehonweh of Great Turtle Island will not beg for what is ours. The visitors will be reminded of their illegal occupation of our land, theft of our possessions, the genocide and what they owe us.  

Why are our people fighting for treaties?  These illegal contracts are not worth the paper they are written on.  We don’t get anything.  They got the right to control us and take everything from us.  Every treaty has been broken, which makes them null and void.  

The only true treaty is the Guswentha in 1701 giving them refuge and to become of one mind with us.  They could never have any jurisdiction over us, our land, resources, air and water.  International law provides that when a treaty is broken everything reverts to one day before the treaty, June 24 1701. 

The occupiers issue corporate band cards.  The holders are deemed to be Canadian Indians under Canada’s corporate sovereignty and jurisdiction.       

If band cards were torn up tomorrow and Canadian corporations were renounced, only band council chiefs and those who vote in their elections would remain as their artificial corporate Indians.  The rest of us would be in the driver’s seat, not being part of the foreign corporations and having never given up anything.    

Canada loses $60 million a day, $22 billion a year, because of the discount prices they get for selling our oil to the US.  They want to sell it to Asian markets via the West coast.  We will never allow the pipeline to go through ongwehoneh land.    We closed down the Northern Gateway pipeline project.  In the 1970s we shut down the Mackenzie Valley pipeline.  Scumbags Enbridge was shut down.  The thieves don’t want to be honest with their landlords.  Instead they send their fake cops [police officers] to threaten us. 

The settlers came here with nothing, no common language, people or history.  They brought greed and a thirst for blood.  They are panicking, angry, frustrated and threatening us because they never thought they would be accountable.  It is time to dissolve the squatting illegal corporation of Canada.  Yes, we will tell foreign governments, corporations and their entities what they may or may not have.

We must work together as one inherent people of Great Turtle Island. There is a formula to come to a consensus so that we all survive.  If one goes hungry, we all go hungry.  Pushing for control of the interest on our resources is a start. 

all nations

We want peace, not pacifism.  We want control of our lives, our land, minerals, oil, water, gas, soil, eco-system, air and everything on it.

TOK’NIKON THAT’S IT!

TOK’NIKON THAT’S IT!

MNN.  Jan. 25, 2012.  That dance between Canada’s Prime Minister Stephen Harper and his top Indian CEO, Shawn Atleo, at the phony First Nations Summit in Ottawa sends the same old “we’re-gonna-get-dem-Injuns” message.

This was the first public face-to-face meeting of Harper and his 400 corporate Injuns in Canada.  Their job is to continue the illusion that Canada is a legal country and to help the corporation make money from the extraction of Indigenous resources.

Harper got his Indians to threaten an Arab Style uprising so the military can come in and keep us in line. Is Atleo, of the Assembly of First Nations, going to stand in the bush and start tweeting to get the revolution going?  Canada wants someone to sell off our mother, Great Turtle Island, to the international bankers, and pocket the money.

The Mohawk Crisis of 1990, a true resistance, is always trotted out as a threat.  They want a controlled uprising “like the US Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s”!!! Are they kidding?  AIM stopped the army bloodbath at Wounded Knee. Many went to jail, were killed, and Leonard Peltier has been in jail for 38 years.

Here’s the script.  Harper, the foreigner, sets up the First Nations Land Management Act to privatize Great Turtle Island with the help of his fake Indians.

Meantime Harper pushes third world living conditions on the rest of us.  Out of desperation, we will be forced to sell our land to stay alive.

Then they cry about the integrity of the Crown!  What?  The crown is a corporation that took over the monarchy in a hostile takeover bid.  [1924 Ontario Indian Land Act when Indian Affairs and Ontario clandestinely put Indigenous on reservations for the first time. It was retaliation for Haudenosaunee applying to join League of Nations 1923. http://caid.ca/IndLanAct1924.pdf].

As Etowokam said in 1710 when he returned from Queen Anne’s Court, England:  “They rely on the written word.  That is how they will be judged”.  We rely on the wampum and the rule of law based on the natural world, not man-made orders.

Harper left Tuesday night January 24th for the World Economic Forum in Davos Switzerland.  The world’s elite were anxiously waiting to hear that we had been put back to sleep so they can continue their theft.

Instead we are louder than ever.  Canada and the world should answer to us, as everything they want is ours.

Instead the foreign usurpers are sitting in high chairs like babies bawling at the land and resource owners.  Everyone in the world is on to their bad act.

Yes, let’s discuss our birthright and that Mother Earth cannot be sold. Sure, put an end to the illegal Indian Act.  Respect the real relationship between us and the foreigners.

Their fake Indian idols complain we can’t use our land as collateral for loans from the foreign corporations that are squatting on our land.  Yet the Canadian government and corporations use our unsurrendered land as collateral to raise money on the global stock markets.  That’s theft, fraud and genocide.

Those fake Indians who want to be part of this foreign entity cannot usurp our sovereignty.  Why don’t you sign on with the immigrants and become the property of the shareholders of Canada, just like other Canadians.

There will be no “Aboriginal” Spring. Seasons change but not our minds or the dreaded truth.

As the song Waltzing Matilda portrays:  all the women [fake Indians] are standing around waiting to dance with the jolly swagman [Harper}.  “You’ll come a’waltzing, Malilda, with me!”

STOP THE TRAINS

Posted on by

STOP THE TRAINS

MNN. Mar. 29, 2010. We Indigenous know that we are being monstrously targeted. We are scattered throughout Great Turtle Island. The colonial government is trying to create a reason to remove and scatter us.

Our communities are deliberately being made unviable, unlivable and mismanaged to create weakness, hunger and thirst. Fierce restrictions, cutbacks, no jobs and no economy are being imposed to create hopelessness.

Resettlement is part of the strategy. Many of our people already have been removed to concentration-extermination camp conditions: Mohawk to Wahta, Innu to Labrador and Inuit to the high Arctic. Curfews and passes were imposed. Food and necessities were rationed. Many died. Our children were removed to residential schools. About half were killed.

In 2005 over 60 Australian Aboriginie communities were placed under martial law run by the military.

For 500 years European invaders continue the genocide of Indigenous. They control the money, police, government, economy and military.

The corporate media does not expose these atrocities. Communication is controlled. The masses say little.

Many of our people join the aggressors or pacifist cults. Some support Canada and US extermination policies, especially the colonial band and tribal councils. They put down any resistance. They will be heroes for convincing us to go like lambs to the slaughter. Their Indian cops tell us it’s futile to resist and encourage us to be passive.

Our resources are being used to carry out the genocide. Hannah Arendt said that in WW II almost without exception Jewish leaders in Germany and worldwide cooperated with the Nazis to carry out the Jewish holocaust. They designed the camps, targeted resisters, compiled lists to send to the concentration camps, which properties to seize and distributed the yellow star ID badge that Jews had to wear. Their own money paid for their holocaust.

If the band and tribal councils do not help their masters, there will be unorganized chaos and less of us will be killed or affected. They will discourage resistance, sabotage rescue attempts and coerce us to re-settle. Our lands and properties are probably being promised to them. In the end, they will be put on the same trains with us. The Apache trackers who helped the US army capture Geronimo were all sent to the same prison in Florida.

Fascist thugs believe that natural law is based on violence and that brutal force can solve social problems; democracy is the enemy of the people because it inhibits brutality; life is a perpetual struggle for existence. Only the strong and brutal survive; and the world belongs to those who seize and control it. [Hitler: Main Kempf].

Anti-Indian racism, threats to our babies, young men and women are control tactics. Our interrelationship with the natural world must be renewed. Living in identifiable communities is necessary. Solidarity must be created between our families. Trusted supporters must be found.

In the end Hitler’s Jewish police were gunned down: “If you can do this to your own, what would you do to me?” Using our own against us is an old tactic. It‘s harder to resist when our own are trying to help eliminate us.

QUEBEC BRIDGE DISASTER AT KAHNAWAKE? Urgent Action Needed!

Posted on by

QUEBEC BRIDGE DISASTER AT KAHNAWAKE? Urgent Action Needed!

MNN. Nov. 15, 2009. The Mercier Bridge is 1.4 kilometers long, spans the St. Lawrence River and Seaway between Montreal and Kahnawake on the south shore. It was built in 1932 beside the CPR Bridge which was built in 1885. www.pjcci.ca

Mohawk Nation, Quebec and Canada contracted the Mohawks to strengthen the steel structure and replace the reinforced concrete bridge deck of three access ramps on Mohawk Territory. It is the largest bridge repair project in Canadian history. Canada is paying $57 million and Quebec $9 million. Over 1000 direct and indirect jobs are being created per year. Work started on April 25, 2008.

The Montreal Iron Workers Union Local 711 is trying to kick the Mohawks out because they don’t have the CCQ cards. Commission de la construction du Quebec cards are issued by the government which controls the union.

CCQ rules and regulations violate the Union’s international charter. Quebec is the only place on Great Turtle Island where a union card is worthless.

Local 711 gives Mohawks union books but tells them to work in the US or other provinces. Retired ironworkers say 711 doesn’t let those who have books from locals 40 or 361 from NY City work in Quebec or Kahnawake, even though they are considered to be highly skilled ironworkers.

Wayne Rice, is head of the local Mohawk Bridge Consortium, a group of contractors in Kahnawake. He had a meeting in August 2009 with Pierre Desroche, the 711 business agent.

711 is trying to invade our sovereignty by disqualifying the Mohawks that don’t have CCQ cards. Desroche urged Rice to send his workers without cards home and hire non-natives. This would put 80 Mohawks out of work.

Jacques Dubois, President of the union’s District Council of Eastern Canada, sent letters to certain men threatening loss of their union books and never working again if they work on the Mercier Bridge project. 9 men quit. 8 had cards and one was promised one. None have been provided jobs or a card.

Rice is trying to protect the men, women and the community now and in the future from jurisdictional encroachment by foreigners. Rice sees other trades in the community being forced under Quebec’s control so that jobs will go to non-natives and taxes can be extorted from us.

Quebec is getting caught in a web of lawlessness. Rice is apparently writing to Joseph Hunt, General President, of the AFL-CIO Iron Workers International Union in Washington DC about these racist practices. He is looking into setting up a local in Kahnawake.

MBC continues to put Mohawk workers on the bridge. Union members elsewhere say it is highly unusual to improperly deny jobs and should be investigated at the highest level.

The Mohawk Nation is inherently sovereign. Kahnawake is on unsurrendered Haudenosaunee land. In 1974 Jean Chretien, the Minister of Indian Affairs, illegally signed an Order in Council declaring it a reserve. He violated internationally recognized standards for respecting political, economic and human rights as set out in the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, UN Convention on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights and other international legal instruments. UN General Assembly Resolution 1541 [XV] requires the informed consent of the people before they are included in another state. We have never legally or voluntarily become part of Canada.

The Mohawks’ position supported by international law is that when anyone comes into our sovereign territory, they must abide by our laws and can’t force their authority on us.

711 recently filed an injunction in Montreal Superior Court to enforce their laws in Kahnawake. As we are a nation, this issue belongs in the International Court.

Supporting this position is the recent ruling in 2008 by the FCC Federal Court of Canada. A Mohawk woman was beaten by Canada Border Services Agents at Akwesasne. She requested an investigation. FCC ruled that the victim must pay for the Crown’s costs because she lives in Kahnwake and is not a resident of Canada. FCC declared that Kahnawake is sovereign and not in Canada.

Based on this ruling, in June 2009 the Maliseet of Tobique in New Brunswick took over and kept the dam and electric generating plant that was built in the middle of their territory.

Dubois tried to unfairly tarnish the reputation of the Mohawks. He prejudiced the Mohawk Bridge Consortium and the workers on the Mercier Bridge Project by stating they are not qualified to do the work and it is a catastrophe.

On August 29, 1907, we lost most of our ironworkers when the Quebec [City] Bridge collapsed into the St. Lawrence River. We later learned this was due to deficiencies in material and construction by the contractors. We don’t want another bridge disaster, especially since we cross it every day. We are a nation and must be legally dealt with as such.
