The Red-X Speaks: “House Mohawk” Continues to Disparage “Field Warriors”!

Posted on by

MNN. June 23, 2026.

We don’t know where he comes from. We do know that he was almost killed in captivity several times. Finally, one day, he escaped the belly of the beast. We are referring to the infamous Indian Sage from the West who goes by the name of “The Red-X”.

After visiting the field of battle at Kanehsatake, The Rex-X dropped by the spacious offices of Mohawk Nation News (MNN) and imparted some of his infinite wisdom on the situation.

The scene reminded him of the classic contradiction between the “house negro” and the “field niggers” during the slave era in the United States. Of course, he did not classify our People as “negroes”. Instead, he coined the phrase “House Mohawk” to describe Grand Chief James Gabriel. The resisters he called the “Field Warriors”.

The Rex-X’s first observations on the burning of the House Mohawk’s home were that he secretly suffered from field warrior envy. The Red-X believes “The master-slave syndrome is part of that manifest destiny crap. This gives him bloated ideas. Not only did he burn up his own house, but he burned up four of the Master’s vehicles”. The House Mohawk was heard yelling, “Master, what is we gonna do? Our house is burnin!”.

Meanwhile, it is The Red-X’s infinite observation that the field warriors were somewhere in “The Pines” burning tobacco, praying for a strong wind. Everyone knows the field warriors hate the master and his House Mohawk with a passion. They look for every opportunity to rise in rebellion against the brutal system of slavery. Especially since the master is now trying to bring in a whole new set of “regulators” to whip the field warriors into submission. But The Red-X was happy to see his three sister field warriors jump into their suburban and chase some of these regulators off the plantation and warn them, “You better not look at us again if you know what’s good for you!”

So, the House Mohawk, J– “Topsy” Gabriel, or “Uncle Tomahawk”, knows what his job is. He must please his Master. He must constantly tap-dance, entertain, and protect the Master’s house. He presently lives in the Master’s big house away from the field warriors and their shanties on Tobacco Road.

When The Rex-X was asked how they overthrew the master long ago, he said quite simply that, “The field warriors went to secret little cubby holes inside of their shanties, brought out their homemade machetes, rocks, and bats and whacked the shit out of the Master and the House Mohawk”. It looks like history is going to repeat itself. The field warriors have dug up a weapon that the Master buried: “constitutional law”. He added, “After all, in the eyes of the Canadian government, we are nothing but a bunch of red negroes, thugs and smugglers”. The Red-X prophecised, “Now they have to face the dreaded weapons of equality, human rights, and obeying their own laws”.

In the meantime, the House Mohawk continues to tap dance and sing the master’s favourite tune, “Oh, Master, how I love my Master”.

“How did we deal with the Master and House Mohawk long ago?” MNN asked.

“Well, the field warriors simply decided to banish the House Mohawk and his Master”, said The Red-X.

“Can the House Mohawk ever become the Master?”

The Red-X said, “He’d better become the Master, as he can never become a field warrior because he has shamed himself for life. He can never return because he has sold out to the Master’s ways. The House Mohawk just better get out of the way when the field warriors free themselves and reaffirm their true power”.

You will know the field warriors when you see them. They won’t be singing, “Master, how I love you”. They will be singing, “We shall overcome”. That’s what The Red-X said. “We don’t promote the use of violence, but we defend ourselves until we win. The House Mohawk will be so pissed off that he could put out a 3-alarm fire with it, thus granting the Fire Department a week off”.

As he mounted the big silver eagle, The Red-X shook his head and said, “I hope that I don’t have to come back here to plead with the field warriors for mercy and for the life of the House Mohawk”. Then he headed west to where the sun sleeps homelessly.

The Red-X says the moral of the story is that “The House Mohawk who lives in the colonial Master’s house hath no future”.

WARRIOR SOCIETY: REBELLION AGAINST THE GREAT LAW

Posted on by

Karonhiaktajeh (Louis Hall) was Kanien’kehá:ka (Mohawk) from Kahnawake, unceded sovereign Mohawk Territory. Karonhiaktajeh foresaw our struggles as Native People and prepared us for the coming revolution/evolution. Karonhiaktajeh is one of our great visionaries, and I, Kahentinetha, have a duty to share with the world one of his final messages before he died in 1993.

https://www.cbc.ca/books/the-mohawk-warrior-society-by-louis-karoniaktajeh-hall-1.6564451
The Mohawk Warrior Society by Louis Hall, as seen in CBC Books

There is a revolution, not just brewing, but in effect in the Iroquois Confederacy. The rebels are not the bearded, uncouth and unkempt characters skulking in the dark alleys of a city. These are Iroquois Chiefs and some followers who are revolting against the Great Law, Gayanerekowa, many parts of which were copied in the United States Constitution which in turn were copied by other constitutions in the world. The Great Law is the Iroquois Constitution which the rebels have put aside and have installed the Handsome Lake Code in its place. The Handsome Lake Code is a copy of the Quaker Code which is not an Indian device.

The action by the rebels is in violation of the Two Row Wampum Treaty where in the two parties, the Indians and the white men, agreed to keep their laws, religion and customs in their own respective vessels. The rebels reached into the white man’s ship and took out the white man’s religion, laws, customs and adopted them as their own.

The rebels now refuse to read the Iroquois Constitution which makes them ignorant of their own laws and they even refuse to speak the name of Deganawida and his works by burying his name. There has to be a hand of the white man or men in this attack on the Iroquois Confederacy. Divide the Confederacy into many parts so they’ll be destroyed.

The Quakers so greatly admired by the rebels have a record of resisting governments, which attracted the unwary segment of the Iroquois population in the first place. The Quakers will not do military service. The Quakers will not even defend their lives if attacked. They shall not fire a gun in self-defence. The Handsome Lake Code has adopted the Quaker death wish religion. They have erased their instinct of self preservation which has been called “god given” and necessary to keep the people in existence.

There will of course be a general rejoicing among the white population if the red race becomes extinct for then the invasion of America, the slaughter of millions of Indians and the stealing of two whole continents will be “justified” since the Indians were going to disappear “anyway”. The biggest crime in the history of the world will then be justified.

Dissolving the Iroquois Constitution (Great Law) will result in the termination of the Iroquois Confederacy. The nation needs a constitution to exist. The rebels prefer to be under the Handsome Lake Code which is not a constitution. Whether they realize it or not the rebels are working to end the Iroquois Confederacy. Ignorance of the law is no excuse.

There have been rebels in the past. Louis Riel was hanged in 1838. Two of the 75 rebels captured in the attack on Kahnawake during the 1837-38 rebellion were hanged in Montreal. There were many others executed during rebellions in the past. This shows the seriousness in which a rebellion is regarded. In this instance, the rebellion is an attack on the very existence of the Iroquois Confederacy.

We do now exhort and entreat the Six Nations rebels to return to the Great Law, Gayanerekowa, the Iroquois Constitution. It is unthinkable for a nation not to have a Constitution. It stops being a nation. The 2nd paragraph of wampum 58 of the Iroquois Constitution reads:

A further meaning of this is that if anytime any one of the Chiefs of the League choose to submit to the law of a foreign people, he is no longer in but out of the League and persons of this class shall be called “They have alienated themselves” (Tehonatonkoton)—likewise, such persons who submit to laws of foreign nations shall forfeit all birthrights and claims on the League of Five Nations and territory.

The rebels did exactly this when they submitted to the Quaker Code via the Handsome Lake Code. The dictionary defines “code” as a “body of laws of a nation”. Since the Handsome Lake Code is a copy of the Quaker Code, it takes no great brain to see that the rebels have switched allegiance and that they are now Quakers. They have alienated themselves from the Iroquois Confederacy and do “hereby forfeit all birthrights and claims on the League of Five Nations and territory”.

This law was made when the Confederacy was still Five Nations. Some of the rebels cannot read nor write and no doubt have been led astray. Handsome Lake Himself could not read nor write and had to sign with an (X) mark. His nephew Henry O’Beal son of Cornplanter, was a quarter Seneca but 100% Quaker wrote the Handsome Lake Code copying from the Quaker Code.

It is not too late nor is it too hard to hold the Pledge Wampum in hand and make the Pledge to return to the Great Law, to defend and protect the People and the land. The rebels are hereby being earnestly urged to return to the Great Law and be once more an Iroquois people. One cannot be an Iroquois if he does not follow and obey the Iroquois Constitution. It is the Iroquois Constitution that makes a man or a woman an Iroquois.

– Defenders of the Great Law.

Happy Father’s Day to all the wonderful men and fathers!

MOCCASIN MAKERS & WAR BREAKERS:

Posted on by

A  CALL TO ACTION BY THE WOMEN OF THE WORLD

MOHAWK NATION NEWS: April 27, 2026. 

WE HAVE THE POWER TO STOP THE WAR!

‘BEFORE THE MEN CAN GO TO WAR, THE WOMEN MUST MAKE THEIR MOCCASINS.”

In the tradition of our ancestors, it was customary for the women to make the moccasins worn by the men who were going to war. If the women did not want war, they did not make the moccasins. Our ancestors belonged to the Haudenosaunee Confederacy. Europeans called us Iroquois.

This is a momentous time in history …. a time when women worldwide are hearing the Call … The Call to demonstrate a new way of consensual decision making based on partnership, cooperation, harmony and balance. 

We can stop wars from ‘disappearing’ our children.

   

We overcame a horrible legacy of war and violence when Dekanawida, the Peace Maker, gave us our Kaianerekowa Great Peace. The United States Senate has acknowledged that our law served as a model for the Constitution of the United States [U.S. S. Con. Res. 76, 2 Dec. 1987].  The U.S. Constitution was, in turn, a model for the Charter of the United Nations. Our way is the basis of modern international law. 

The Americans copied our laws and customs, but they did not understand them. Our ancestors recognized the sovereignty of all men and women by solving community conflicts through discussion in a People’s Council. In our tradition, three criteria must be kept in mind through all deliberations: 

1]Peace must be kept at all costs;

2]Righteousness meaning decisions must be morally right, taking into consideration the needs of all our future generations to come, and;.

3]Power: meaning the power of the people must be maintained including the equal sovereignty of all men and all women.

Conflicts between nations were resolved through diplomacy and consensus. War – or the use of violence – was only a last resort. Even then the women and children of the opponents were spared. Throughout, our ancestors always respected the other nation’s different customs, laws and ways of life, whether they approved of them or not. 

They would work out agreements on how to live and stand together and find a way not to become involved in these current conflicts. We now see that this has gone too far. Innocent lives and mother earth are at stake. As women and caretakers of this earth, we have decided to speak up.

According to the way of our ancestors, the soil of onowarekeh turtle island [North America] is vested in the women. Serious decisions about warfare had to involve the other half of the people – the women – the bearers of life, the nurturers of the earth.

Please tell your mothers, grandchildren, great-grandchiidren involved in this current conflict, friends, as well as the men and boys in your lives.

We are asking people to wear pink [as hot a pink as you want]. “Codepink” is a code used in hospitals when a child is nearing death. The women will wear pink to express deep outrage about the suffering and death of the children, as well as our outrage about the impacts of violence on children. 

We are now facing an unnecessary war. We have a duty to use our power to do good. We have decided to remind all humanity of this important truth. War cannot happen without the support of women. We are asking the women of the world to come forward and play their rightful role as the progenitors, the creators of all men, all humanity, the caretakers of the earth and of all that lives upon it.

As women, we know the pain and suffering of childbirth. We feel a deep loss when our children die. This understanding is compelling us to act to stop the destruction of lives. The children must not suffer. Not our children, Not the children of anyone we disagree with. We respect the sovereign and sacred right of each individual to live on this earth. 

We ask you, the women of the world, and the men who support us, to come forward and stop this madness. This decision to go to war is causing deaths of thousands of innocent men, women and children. This is being made primarily by men without the input of the people of the nation attacking or being attacked, without the input of the women. Most of these men have grandmothers,  mothers, wives, girlfriends, sisters, aunts, daughters, nieces, granddaughters, nannies, friends,  etc…..  Or anyone who is involved in causing the current threat to destroy the world.

We are asking all women to put pressure on current and past criminal presidents.   

Women., remember your power. Remember your responsibility. Every person has personal power. We must all use our power to do good. We must stop the war.  We must maintain the peace. We must hold back the moccasins.

JOIN YOUR VOICE. WITH SISTERS, MOTHERS, AUNTS, GRANDMOTHERS, DAUGHTERS,  AND SAY “NO” TO WAR…NOT NOW… NOT EVER AGAIN.

Kahentinetha, Mohawk mother, grandmother & great grandmother

Kahente, Mohawk mother & grandmother

Karonhio’he, daughter

kokowa, daughter, mother

Grace, aunt &, sister

Sign this petition to stop the war and send it to your representatives. Your voice counts, but you have to do something. Use your power. What if every woman in the world refused to have a baby? 

Our divine sister, Helen Reddy, says it very clearly about the power of the mocasin makers, the woman.

OLD INDIGENOUS WISDOM

Posted on by

 

MNN. MAR.  4, 2026. The indigenous people remind the world as part of our responsibilities to the generations to come, and throughout the world, that we can form covenant chains of friendship based on mutual respect. The League of Nations and United Nation tried to follow this pattern, basically for large nations not to dominate small ones. 

We respect each other’s differences. The founding of the League of Nations and United Nations were meant to show the Europeans how indigenous understood natural relationships and our way of life. All nations of the world want to link hands together in peace to help each other overcome misunderstandings. Different countries have different realities. Though we are different, putting our minds together makes us all strong. For example, one arrow may be easily broken while five tied together are strong. 

If the United States feels vulnerable, it should ask the world for help, not attack everybody. We put our minds together to get  information from each other to resolve our differences. We all want peace, prosperity and happiness. Wars destroy resources and doesn’t help us reach this goal. War is a waste of human energy. We could all be building decent housing and schools, caring for the sick, nurturing the children to help heal the land so they can grow to be strong, creative, knowledgeable and fulfilled human beings. 

We can create universal peace, prosperity and harmony. 

The red lines of the US flag represent the Indians of the land and the white lines represent the white colonists. The blue represents the sky that covers all of us. The 13 lines represent the 13 colonies. We all speak of peace. Donald Trump and his cohorts and the Israelis do not hear us and they do not represent us. We must stop anyone from bullying and killing us. We must respect the idea of the United Nations to honour the international peace treaties. The UN was modelled on the Constitution off the United States. [United States Senate [Con. Res. 76, Dec. 1987.] The US constitution is modelled on the kaianerekowa great peace of the Haudenosaunee people. The United States is a colonial power that has never understood true democracy or the requirements for living in peace. 

In the United States, the President is the Commander in Chief of the military. Under our way, war chiefs are not allowed to decide to go to war. This decision can only be made by the people. In the current attack of Iran by the US and Israel, the people of the United States did not give their permission to go to war. 

Under our way, the women can recall our representatives if they fail to listen to the people. They decide and send the men to fight to protect the life, health and welfare of our people.    

The present US administration bases its power on military and economic force. According to our way this does not make their actions legal. For us legality is founded on the consent of the people. Many Americans do not vote in their elections. To us this means they were exercising their lawful right to veto the choices presented to them. 

We call on Donald Trump and his entourage to lay down their arms and respect international law. 

We call on the King of England to exercise his prerogative power to defend his people. 

We remind the elected representatives of all countries that they do not have jurisdiction to go against the will of the people. 

Peoples throughout the world should continue their protests over the usurpation of their duties and responsibilities by their governments. The world will stand with you when you exert your will. 

We call on the unfortunate soldiers of the world to not support an illegal war and actions. Now is the time to be brave. Listen to your own minds. 

 We call on all peace loving countries to give sanctuary to any soldier who refuse to participate in an illegal war.

In these dark times, we must all stand together. We ask all soldiers to follow the will of the people. Donald Trump and Netanyahu can only conduct a war that is legal and with our support. We must not encourage those who kill in order to steal resources that are meant for the benefit of all peoples. In a world facing shortages, destruction of resources cannot bring prosperity. At all times intelligence and creativity are needed. We can solve our problems by bringing our minds together.

True soldiers listen to their people. If they are our protectors and guardians, they will not take part in an illegal war. Oppression happens when we let bullies make others pull the trigger. The United States is not acting in self-defence. They must listen to the better judgment of the other nations of the world. 

We have a term in our language, “to ho te ri wa kwen ten”, which means that “they pushed matters to a ridiculous extreme putting everything out of balance”. 

To all our relations, to the natural world, to all spirits in the universe, we must link our hands together to keep balance in the world. 

Jinx Dawson from the film Billy Jack reminds us that,”Go ahead and hate your neighbor, go ahead and cheat a friend / Do it in the name of heaven, justify it in the end / There won’t be any trumpets blowing, come the judgment day / On the bloody morning after, one tin soldier rides away“.

INDIGENOUS CAN STOP WAR

Posted on by

 

INDIGENOUS CAN STOP WAR [reprinted]

MNN.  JAN. 17, 2013.  US & CANADA corporations merged on February 4, 2011.  They have the same shareholders, owners and business plans for illegal resource extraction. Canadians and Americans have not been informed. The EU Times in Europe made the announcement on January 17, 2013. In effect, this is Hitler’s 1938 “Anschluss”, the takeover of Austria by Germany.  Canada is now a substate of the US.North American Union in E.U. Times

Merging of corporate thievery.

Merging of corporate thievery.

In 2004 President Bush and Prime Minister Martin signed the “911’ Agreement allowing the US military to invade Canada anytime the US deems it necessary to eliminate “terrorist threats”.  Essentially, Canada is under martial law.  

Our Indian Trust Fund is over $3 trillion, coming from monies set aside from the exploitation of our resources. It is set aside according to international law treaty requirements. The oligarchs who run the world are stealing it. The banks, Vatican, Queen, World Bank, International Monetary Fund and the families in charge have been dividing it amongst themselves.  The fake bankers’ world economy is based totally on continual war.   

Canada is the third biggest country in the world. The oligarchs cannot make war without our resources.  The shareholders of the country corporations illegally sell our raw materials to each other.    

The corporate merger of 2011 benefits big business, banks, big oil, drug companies and their war-making machine. Our materials are needed to attack anybody who stands in the way of resource extraction. The military tell Congress, Senate and Parliament who will be bombed, or their economy will fail. 

Our materials make weapons to kill our brothers and sisters in all parts of the world. We can stop the war by stopping the resource extraction from our homeland. It violates our laws. 

Since WWII the US military has invaded 60 countries to continue imperial war.  To make guns, bombs, tanks and weapons of mass destruction, the raw materials come from Canada, such as coal, oil, gas, food, wood, aluminum, steel and compites. 

Tanks need iron, aluminum, oil and saltpeter.  Guns need zinc, iron, steel, magnesium, brass, polymer, ceramis, wood and fiber glass. Bombs need plutonium, radio active elements, explosives, isogn, mega cyte, mexallon, nocxium, pyerite, titanium, zydrine and tailings from nuclear power plants.  Gunpowder needs sulphur and charcoal. Computers need copper, lead, aluminum, platinum, tin, gold, silver, bromine and mercury.  Electronics need nickel and chromium. 

Except for rubber, all these materials are available in Canada.  

War-mongers spread lies through deception, disinformation and finally false flag wars. They scream, “Get rid of the Indian Act.  Bring in Bill C-45 to expedite resource extraction”.  The genocidal Indian Act is illegal and will be eliminated. Control of Great Turtle Island will return to us, as Creation intended.  

We will stop war the world over by stopping the illegal extraction. We will never support any war. Kaianerekowa directs us to support peace everywhere on earth through mutual consensus.   

United to stop war.

United to stop war.

As Edwin Starr sang: “War means tears to thousands of mothers’ eyes.  When their sons go to fight and lose their lives.  I said, WAR, huh, good God.  Y’all, what is it good for.  Absolutely nothing.  Say it again.” Edwin Starr: War

Wahta

THE MESSAGE: The people of Kanienkeh have inhabited Anonwa’re:ke since time immemorial and have adhered to Kaienerekowa consistently. The Kanienkehaka have never relinquished, traded, bartered, sold, or compromised their title and responsibilities to the land and all the natural resources including air and water. The Kahnistensera execute their responsibilities as stewards of the land and consistently commit to protecting the integrity of it for the children to come.

As such, the Kanienkehaka remind our families, our territories, and those who reside upon our mother that this land was, is, or never will be up for adoption, sale, transfer or dismantlement.

If there is an individual, organization, committee, corporation or government that is in negotiations for lands on A’nonwareke, this is an illegitimate conduct. Individuals who claim to represent Kanienkehaka in any manner that is in contrary to our constitution have placed themselves outside of Teiotiokwenhakstha (see wampum #58).

Teiotiokwenhakstha is consistently enacted to maintain harmony with the natural world.

Let it be known that ANY land claims or land negotiations will NOT be recognized and are unacceptable by the Kanienkehaka.

SELF-SUPPORT TERMED INDIAN GOAL

Posted on by

Please post & distribute.

Feb 1, 2023.

 

 

Recently the Kahnistenseras of Kahnawake were invited to Hart House of University of Toronto to speak about current indigenous issues. 

 Globe & Mail 1964 republication  of Feb. 11, 1965. ProQuest Historical Newspapers : “Self-Support Indian Goal“

     

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kahentinetha Horn, a lissum Indian, forecast an Indian in the future of every University of Toronto student who jammed Hart House art gallery yesterday to hear her talk on the arts and culture of contemporary Indians.                                       Miss Horn prophesied that in 35 years, Canada’s Indian population would be 1,800,000 – or roughly one out of every 25 persons. would be an Indian, she said.          “You are the privileged of the privileged”, she told the students. “You are the 82 per cent of the  future leaders of Canada” – I represent the despairing 1 per cent who are multiplying rapidly in Canada. Now is the time you must learn about Indians to help us achieve our main goal.”                                                                        The first goal of Indians is to be able to support themselves, she said.                       On each Wall of Hart House gallery hung paintings by Norval Morrisseau, Ojibway Indian from Beardmore, Ont.  “They conveyed a message of the past”, Miss Horn said.  “Such art flows through the blood of my brothers and sisters – but most of the benefits reaches the white man’s salons?”                                                        While Indian culture certainly encompasses significant art form, the arts of Indians have leaned more to warfare and politics, Miss Horn said.                                “For 20,000 years, the Indians have had a struggle to survive the forces of nature.  The cultural arts come only with leisure –  after survival.” The greats of her ancestors, the Iroquois, were related to politics and warfare. The United Nations concepts are modelled on the Iroquois Confederacy, for example. Their arts of warfare are the reasons the students speak English today instead of French, she said. That’s why you have Prime Minister Pearson as leader instead of President de Gaulle”.                                                                                                        Most Indians, Miss Horn said, are unemployable. “I’m afraid technical sciences will keep Indians unemployable. We haven’t time to think about our arts. We have to keep our people alive. How to keep our women alive, for example, past the age of 45. Why does one out of 10 of our babies die before the age of 4? Don’t ask me why; nobody has ever researched the reason. It’s just a statistic. We need housing, medical care, community planning, training and education. We need an interest in welfare –  there’ll be one of us in thec future for every one of you. 

     Note to readers: The population of indigenous people in Canada today is 1.800,000.

JAY TREATY MUST BECOME “LOVE TRAIN” FOR PEACE Audio

MNN. Apr. 21, 2022. What’s the fuss over the Jay Treaty? It does not exist on great turtle island [the Western Hemisphere] for the sovereign indigenous people. International law exists as long as it serves the United States. So there is no international law. Article 2 of the Jay Treaty of Trade and Commerce 1794 acknowledges the that there are no borders for indigenous people because the supreme law of  great turtle island is the kaianerekowa and indigenous laws that have been here since time immemorial. Canada commits a crime when they refuse to acknowledge the kaianerekowa and do not allow indigenous from anywhere in the Western Hemisphere to pass and repass the artificial borders placed anywhere on turtle island by the invaders.
The Jay Treaty is between US and Britain to settle the colonial wars between them. great turtle island is one land for all indigenous people.  
The band council is an administrative arm of the invading Canadian/British army that enforces the foreign”Admiralty Law of the Sea”. The Indian Act provides that the band council as Canadians have no authority to represent us because they violate the teiohateh, two row. The tribal councils in the United States do not represent the indigenous people either for the same reason.

This ‘imaginary line’ to exploit the people is made out of thin air. It exists only by foreign legislation and is not natural. Birds, deer, indigenous people don’t need statutes to move about on their land. 500 years ago indigenous people were naturally free to travel ocean to ocean, pole to pole. We are stopped, penalized, imprisoned and forced to live on small POW camps called “reservations” overseen and enforced by the “weaponized peacekeepers.”

Violence against indigenous people at illegal economic border

US VIOLENCE AT ILLEGAL BORDER AGAINST INDIGENOUS PEOPLE.

The kaianerekowa, great peace, and all original indigenous law is the law of great turtle island. In 1794 the Americans and British carved an illegal line through onowarekeh, turtle island, calling the north side Canada and the south side the United States and Mexico, but the same families ruled all sides of the pretend borders. Canada and United States will stop their criminality and totally remove the boundary and let all natives cross and recross freely. The South Americans cannot be stopped from moving north. The non-natives and their band and tribal councils have to live by the kaianerekowa or leave great turtle island. 
When we go to the border, we can drive or walk through and tell the border guards to get out of our way. They have to open the gates for us as though they do not exist. Some remarks by indigenous when harassed at the border: “There is no Canada or United States!” Another was asked where he born. He said “Six Nations!” The immigration fella said, “You are Canadian”. His father corrected, “If a calf is born in a horse’s stall, does that make him a horse?”    
Instead of lying, murdering and warfare the O’Jays sing that we should all get on the “Love Train”: “People all over the world everybody [all over the world] join hands with the love ride. Start a ‘love train’, ‘love ride’, ‘love train’. At the next stop that we make will be England. Tell the folks in Russia and China too” . . .  

MOHAWK MOTHERS TO DEFEND THEMSELVES, MAR. 24/22. Audio

MNN. Feb. 22, 2022. [By kenienkehaka messenger thahoketoteh of MNN]. [This is the correct date]

 

LAWYERS GET OFF FIRST SHIP TO TURTLE ISLAND.

kahnistensera Mohawk Mothers are defending their right to represent themselves.  tewatatewennio is a fundamental right of the people to speak from their own minds according to kaianerekowa process.   

The Federal Court of Canada is being requested to issue an order forcing the kahnistensera Mohawk Mothers to be represented by a lawyer, violating kanienkehaka law;  that  kahnistensera cannot speak in the proceedings; and to cover the ‘costs’ of the respondents [McGill, Quebec, Montreal and Stantec Construction].  

IN THE BEGINNING COLONISTS, POLITICIANS, LAWYERS & COURTS BEGAN TO DESTROY THE VOICE OF THE NATIVE WOMEN.

March 24th is another attempt to waste time by throwing the kahnistensera into the court’s procedural swamp.    

Sections 35 and 52 of the Constitution Act of Canada 1982 affirms that the kaianerekowa, the great peace, and the teiohateh, two row agreement, are the supreme laws of turtle island.

ALL LAWS OF CANADA ARE OF NO FORCE AND EFFECT. SEC. 35 & 52. CONSTITUTION ACT OF CANADA 1982.

The kahnistensera wish to begin as soon as possible to address the crimes: the unmarked graves of the children, the theft of kanienkehaka Mohawk land, the debts owing to the Indian trust fund by McGill and the City of Montreal and to stop the construction of the Royal Vic renewal project of tekanontak, Mount Royal. 

This court of the invaders cannot adjudicate over the indigenous people. The kahnistensera have obligations to fulfill determined by creation. They cannot abandon their pledge. The invaders originally promised to respect all people of the Western Hemisphere and remain on their ship.

The invaders agreed to make a peaceful relationship with the onkwewonweh. It is apparent they do not remember their pledges and ways of maintaining a peaceful relationship.

According to Sections 35 and 52 of the Constitution, the colonial judiciary is inconsistent with indigenous laws, therefore of no force and effect. The lawyers want a lawyer from their privately owned judicial system  and to determine who shall speak for the kahnistensera. The lawyers threaten them with exorbitant “costs”. The court is asking the kahnistensera to reveal how much money they have. Indigenous resources are raped, Indian trust funds are set aside for use by the invaders, the land is continuously misused and the children are genocided. Their own books will reveal how much wealth they have taken from the indigenous. In 2020, the GDP [value] of Canada amounted to about 1.64 trillion U.S. dollars, which is the Indian Trust Fund.

They also want to decide how much time they can speak in court. For over 500 years the invaders created the havoc and destruction of turtle island. The indigenous have persistently tried to stop the genocide of the peoples and the natural world. The Federal Court of Canada must see all the wrongs that have been done and that can be stopped. All parties must start telling the truth.

Let us begin a new era of relations, by getting to the substance, such as investigating the suspected unmarked graves of our children on tekanontak, Mount Royal, the theft of un-repaid Indian funds to build the McGill military college in 1820, the invasion of our unceded lands. The only binding laws on turtle island are the kaianerekowa and teiohateh.

LAWYERS HAVE LAWYERS.

The kahnistensera are not looking for adjudication. They remind the court of the commitments the invaders made to the people and the land. Prime Minister Trudeau has conceded these wrongs and requires them to be remedied. They want the court to honour and fulfill all the pledges they made. Foreign laws are not applicable to the indigenous or the land, according to the Constitution. The invaders must remain within their ship.

The invaders can never own any of indigenous land. Nor give themselves rights to turtle island. The people of this hemisphere must be respected. 

There is harmony between the rotisikenrakete, the men, and the kahnistensera, the women. They are of the same mind. All are concerned for human rights, children, future generations and for all the family that is on this land. rotiskenrakete carry their commitments in their medicine pouch that connects them to their mother. They carry the soil with them to remind them of their duties and responsibility.

kahnistensera are not of this so-called government or nation. They have gone to the Federal Court to remind them of the crimes committed to the people and mother earth. They are part of everything that is original to this land. They remain in the canoe while the invaders are on the ship that will take them back to their mother.

LAW SCHOOL.

The court erroneously refers to the kahnistensera as a group, organization or corporation. They are the original women of turtle island, the life givers and caretakers of the land. They wish to speak openly so their words may be heard by everybody to let them know who the indigenous people are.

The government band councils work for the white corporations in the Prisoner of War camps called reservations, under a ‘war measures’ system run by a military complex. The invading state is now turning the gun at their own people. This happened many times to the original people right up to the present. Canada is disqualified from being a country because it does not and cannot have the land that belongs to the original people. 

The kahnistensera have come to remind the Federal Court that they shall decide who will speak for the people and they will defend the people, the culture and the land.

The kahnistensera are seeking a JUDGMENT from the Federal Court of Canada that the kaianerekowa and teiohateh are the Supreme Laws of turtle island, and that all laws of Canada are hereby adjudged to be inconsistent thereto and are of no force or effect on this issue.   Signed & dated by the Federal Court Justice.

 

George Thorogood sings about doing everything he can to get back to his woman: “I pulled out of Pittsburg rolling down the eastern seaboard. I got my diesel wound up and she’s running like never before. There’s a speed zone ahead but alright I don’t see a cop in sight. Six days on the road and I’m gonna make it home tonight”.
