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.

JAY TREATY MUST BECOME “LOVE TRAIN” FOR PEACE Audio

Please post & distribute.
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” . . .

MNN. 8 OCT. 2019. otsinonwaksen okonha, the corporation of the government of Canada and its partners are a troubled people. The main questions for their current election debates should be, “How do we get out of making up for the brutality and genocide we are committing against the onkwehonweh’onwe, the original people, and all life on turtle island?” 

ELECTION NIGHT DEBATE: THE REAL QUESTION FACING THE INVADERS IS “HOW DO WE KEEP STEALING EVERYTHING, GIVE UP NOTHING & STOP DEM INJUNS FROM COMPLAINING?”

Owista [the money disease] governs corporate society. Their mouths say “me” instead of “we”. 

Politicians are trained actors who deceive the public from seeing that the corporation is based on 51% majority rules, the way a company is run, which is the government of Canada. Corporatism/fascism runs a quasi police state under Admiralty statute law with no constitutional remedy.

PEOPLE ARE TOLD TO GO TO THE POLLS SO THEY CAN LEAVE ALL DECISIONS UP TO THE CROOKED SECRETIVE POLITICIANS.

The original people, who live the natural way with all life, don’t belong in the corporate system. The immigrants are “regulating” us out of existence. 

 

PEOPLES COUNCIL: WE HAVE THE MEANS TO MAINTAIN THE PEACE BETWEEN THE NATURAL WORLD & ALL THE PEOPLE.

If the citizenry of every municipality developed a municipal constitution based on the kaianerekowa, they could dissolve their corporate municipal company, which is being run by the secret shareholders on behalf of the bankers. They could come under the kaianerekowa, the great peace, and learn to get 100% agreement on all issues affecting the community. Canada could be a shining example to the world.

The foreign serpents’ edicts cannot remove us. tewatatawi is our nature. Today we onkwehonweh are in the “hilly country” healing and waiting for the return of the great peace. It will come. 

onkwehonweh”onwe’ means we are the people of the ‘forever’. We have been here before Canada, the Indian Act and the church. We did not come to turtle island on a ship. Creation, the universe, placed us on our mother. We are to spread the peace throughout the world. 

Steve Winwood, Eric Clapton, Ric Grech and the late great Ginger Baker gave us the message that everyone in the world must find their way back to their home: “Come down off your throne and leave your body alone. Somebody must change. You are the reason I’ve been waiting so long. Somebody holds the key. When I’m near the end and I just ain’t got the time. I’m wasted and I still can’t find my way home. I ain’t done nothing wrong. But I can’t find my way home.”

RUSSIA ROLLS WITH ONKWEHONWEH

 

Please post & distribute.

MNN. DEC. 3, 2018. We are calling on the support of our ancient ally at the Kremlin, to intervene at the international level against Canada’s latest genocidal move against the indigenous of turtle island. On December 4 in Ottawa they are going to try to totally eliminate our birthright which goes against all international treaties that they rely upon for their legality in the world community. 

We formed a relationship with the Russians in 1710. The wampum belts are proof of that everlasting alliance based on peace and mutual acknowledgment. Recently a letter was sent to Prime Minister Putin. The Kremlin acknowledged receipt. 

Our chiefs travelled to London England in the summer of 1710 to hold
the first Peace Conference with the European Monarchs attended by the Russian
Tsar Peter the Great. He accepted some Wampum Treaty Belts, which are now in “Peter the Great” museum in St. Petersberg, Russia.

Greetings and peace to Mr. Putin and the Russian people were extended from the kanionkehaka/Mohawk people, the 50 chiefs of the rotinoshonni Iroquois confederacy, our allies of the Anishnabe, Cree, Migmac, Algonquin, Wampanoag and the remaining Taino of Boriken such as our brother John Robles. 

The aserakowa of the Kanekota territory was asked to arrange a meeting with the Russian Ambassador in Ottawa to discuss the Wampum Belts that Russia still holds, and to remind them that our ancient alliance continues in peace through those belts.

The embassy staff informed him there are protocols to follow and we have our own wampum protocols. 

Today true peace on earth is within our grasp. The tie between the Russian people and the onkwehonweh is in the wampum. The wampum is a system of memory and recall, which is far more advanced than any system existing in Europe.  No deceptions are possible within the wampum system. The late great Johnny Winter explains how onkwehonweh/Russia have a concurrence of the wampum and bring peace to the world at this time right now: “I don’t see no competition. You didn’t win the lottery. So you better ask permission. If you wanna roll with me. See you whistle out the window. Boy, I ain’t your property
Go, go, go switch up your lingo. If you wanna roll with me”

STOMP DANCE!

 

Please post & distribute.

MNN.   Nov. 24, 2018.  On December 4, 2018. the corporation of Canada and their committees called ‘band councils’ are working out an illegal deal to steal our birthright. A few sell-outs will sign on behalf of millions of natives to relinquish our millions of acres of land and resources. It’s all fraud.

Our family of the Western Hemisphere, onowareken [turtle island] are part if all transactions. We have been placed here by creation. Over 250 million in south and central America are natives. They have every right to go anywhere where the kaianerekowa, great peace, prevails, which is anywhere that is clan-based and matrilineal. That is all of South America and North America, from the Arctic to the Antarctic. They can use any land to feed their families and live in peace without hindrance by any corporate usurper. They can work in the natural way to help us bring our mother back to health. Together we will survive the atrocities being inflicted by these criminals.   

IT’S TIME FOR THE MILLION ONKWEHONWEH STOMP DANCE TO OTTAWA TO STOMP THIS ILLEGAL AGENDA BACK TO WHERE IT BELONGS, IN THE GUTTER. 

We have been placed by creation on the Western Hemisphere. The invaders have no right to any of our birthright. Selling land is not our way. Like Israel, our land is under military occupation. Upon arrival the Europeans agreed to follow the kaianerekowa, great peace. They failed to follow the rules of the tewatatawi, how to carry themselves in the natural way. Our southern siblings have not been considered or consulted about these attacks on their birthright. We demand that every checkpoint by the artificial states be removed. 

For 500 years the intruders did not live up to their promises and agreements. Now all our people from all parts of turtle island must come together to heal the wounds that are deep in our mother earth.  

TRUDEAU WARNS, “IF YOU SIGN, TAKE THE BLOOD MONEY, AND YOU’RE ON YOUR OWN!”

The invaders went to other places throughout the world to massacre and pillage the people, land and resources. We must stand together as one family.  

The United States, Canada and other corporate entities use their military to confine our movement. Indian Affairs is a division of the army. Trump and Clinton, Trudeau and Sheer all work for the exact same Rothschild controlled bankers. Their job is to continue the illusion of freedom so they can rape and pillage.

In the natural way, our southern relatives can and will migrate north if they so chose, like the butterflies, birds, geese.

HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF OUR FAMILY FROM THE SOUTH HAVE ALWAYS BEEN WELCOME IN THEIR ANCESTRAL HOMELAND. 

When these European migrants arrived here dirty, tired, sick and hungry, we fed,  sheltered and taught them how to feed themselves. They helped themselves to everything we had and destroyed the beauty and harmony of creation. 

Robbie Robertson sings about how we were forced to hide our true identity to escape the continued genocide. “Pay no mind to his messed up hair. Pay no mind to the clothes he wears. It’s just the hours he’s been keepin’. Ain’t been doing too much sleeping. They dyed his hair and hid his feathers. And told him he was Latin. ‘Til he came chanting down the street Like a cannibal in Manhattan”.

SCORCHED EARTH

 

Please post & distribute.

MNN. 12 Nov. 2018. Nobody says anything about the ‘scorched earth pogroms’ the invaders carried out across turtle island to kill us, to drive us out to get our possessions.

FINALITY OF FIRE!

 In 1779, General George Washington made an executive order that stands today. He sent Major General John Sullivan into Iroquois country to devastate and destroy our lands from North to South.

Thousands of troops overran, burnt and destroyed every village and farm. The native men, women, and children were murdered. “ranatakaias” [rabid village destroyer as we called Washington] was orgasmic to see our land overrun, laid waste, our people obliterated and to know that many more natives would starve to death during the following winter. 

The Americans don’t care about what they did to us. Their black book says they will pay for the sins of their fathers. Today they are celebrating the murders of their young people in the trade wars called World War I and II. In the California fires they can’t account for 100 people, while they don’t want to account for over 100 million of us they murdered. They are experiencing their legacy.  

U.S. MILITARY ‘SURGICAL’ STRIKES ON ALREADY DEVASTATED PEOPLE.

BIG INSURANCE PAY0FF MAINLY FOR THE RICH. 

 

Americans always hold out their hands to accept all they stole from us. The burnt toxic plastic gew gaws of the people mixes with the clouds and then drops on and kills the rest of us. The people breath in the poisons, get sick and die. 

The labor force has been kicked out. The rich think that only money can fix their problems. 

The invaders were happy and ecstatic when our people and villages were burnt and destroyed. The invaders are crying when they lose what they stole from us. Peggy Lee knows that “when that final moment comes and I’m breathing my last breath, I’ll be saying to myself, Is that all there is, is that all there is? If that’s all there is my friends, then let’s keep dancing. Let’s break out the booze and have a ball. If that’s all there is.’

Our imposed corporate “leaders” [band and tribal council chiefs and national leaders] should research the Vatican Papal Bulls, the foundation of so-called international law:

STOP MESSING WITH US!

 

Please post & distribute.

MNN. NOV. 6, 2018. The natural people of turtle island are following the instructions of creation, to feed and care for their families and to live in peace anywhere.  Those corporate borders set up the invaders are meant to stop and examine themselves, not us. They came here from other parts of the world. 

We true natives of turtle island are not immigrants!!! Our family that is travelling from the South of great turtle island to the North are traversing our land. They can come anyway they want, by plane, by inner tube, by boat, by car or with one foot in front of the other. 

These corporations want some of us as cheap labor to work for the immigrant. These intruders have no right to turn back, falsely charge any of them for being native or hunting them down for doing what we have every right to do. The immigrants are the criminals and have no right to stop us or to interfere with our free use and enjoyment of our lands. 

Family, you are native people. Every single thing on great turtle island from the North Pole to the tip of South America is our home. As relatives we need to support each other so our family can continue to live and survive on our mother. 

Casting away the colonialist propaganda that has kept our families apart, once again we are one people and we care very much for each other. As Joni Mitchell sings [Both Sides Now]: “rs and fears and feeling proud, To say “I love you” right out loud. Dreams and schemes and circus crowds. I’ve looked at life that way…”

WHO’S THE MIGRANT?

 

Please post & distribute.

MNN. NOV. 4, 2018. Our brothers and sisters to the south are not migrant farm workers. They are farm workers working for a migrant! They come to do an honest day’s work for an honest day’s pay. They have every right to visit  their families anywhere on turtle island without hindrance. The white man’s delusional demarkation lines are economic borders and have nothing to do with us.  Nature has bound us together as one people with all lifeon turtle island.  

INVADERS SNEAKING ONTO TURTLE ISLAND,THEY CALLED THE “PROMISED LAND”. THEY BROKE EVERY PROMISE, SO THEY GOTTA GO! RIGHT?

The invaders continue to plan to steal and kill us. They use the same old dirty tactics, invade, kill, enslave, steal, humiliate and wipe out the original people. The corporate countries set up death squads, terrorize people, put gangsters in power and make the true natural people the victims. 

Our native brothers and sisters in the US could meet our brothers and sisters at the Mexico-US fake border and walk them across into native land known as the colony of the United States. It is inhabited by intruders known as immigrants. Artificial corporate laws cannot stop true natural people placed here by creation from exercising our birthright, to traverse any part of our mother. 

“WASN’T IT THE RUSKIES WHO GOT THE LAST LAUGH?” 

 

At the Canada-US border their northern families can meet them, walk them over the imaginary line into native land known as “the colony of Canada”. 

“YOU ARE NOT LIVING BY THE KAIANEREKOWA, GREAT PEACE, SO YOU CANNOT STAY ON TURTLE ISLAND”.

The invaders are rich from murdering our people and stealing our land and resources, in Canada, United States, Mexico, Guadamala, Honduras, el Salvador, Nicaraugua, Panama and throughout the Western Hemisphere. We have all rights to everything they made from our land and resources, such as food, jobs, houses, health care, schools. All those riches they claim actually belong to us. The migrants came here with nothing except rats and diseases. 

If the intruders refuse to live by the kaianerekowa, great peace, they have to leave. Those dwelling on turtle island have an obligation to stand with us to exercise our birthright. 

US President Trump will not shoot those natives for throwing rocks at the military who protect the dictators. People worldwide have to challenge these tyrants that created artificial borders and their gimme-everything-or-else-I’ll-blow-your-head-off laws and economy. It’s all about money and control, a pretext to the police state. 

WHO’S GONNA PAY FOR THE WALL?

GRAND OSWEGO UNITY GATHERING NOV. 19-23/18

 

Please post & distribute. 

MNN. Nov. 3, 2018. te-ka-ri-wa-iena-wakon. Calling all onkwehonweh, brothers, sisters, friends, allies, our families, young people and elders.  

Come and learn. Let’s talk about the kaianerekowa, great peace and the tekeni teohateh [two row]. Let us open our minds so that together we can have mutual understanding. Let’s talk about unity and human rights. 

MAY 19 TO 23, 2018 @ SIX NATIONS. 

This is a peoples’ meeting. The invitation is open to everyone, including the chiefs, clan mothers and band councils. We have the minds to make good decisions. We are each te-wa-ta-tawi, we carry ourselves and have a right to meet to discuss whatever we want. Creation made us a free people. No one can dictate to us. This is a republic, which is rule by the people. Democracy is mob rule. 

Let’s open our minds and listen to each other. According to kaianerekowa we cannot listen to rumors, gossip and hearsay concerning this gathering and our affairs. The great peace shows us how to reach an understanding. Come and see for yourself. Ask questions. Have your say. We want to hear what is on your mind. 

There is only one version of the natural way. kaianerekowa teaches us not to fear the unknown, but to examine everything.  

We are a calm people who sit, listen to each other and participate. Because we have differences of opinion is no reason to become enemies. Everyone’s voice needs to be heard to contribute to our well-being. We should search each other’s minds and come to an understanding. The more knowledge we acquire, the better decisions we will make together. 

This is our responsibility for our children. Let’s end the confusion. Anyone with ideas who wants to help is welcome. The young people are welcome to be heard as they carry on the traditions. Strife can be dealt with using our clear minds. 

SEE YOU AT OSWEGO.

50 YEARS SINCE CORNWALL BRIDGE BLOCKADE

 

Please post & distribute. 

MNN. Oct. 21, 2018. For over 50 years this National Film Board documentary film was seen by millions of people around the world. Participants regularly get comments on the blockade of the International Bridge at Akwessne. It is one of the most important milestones in which natives made a definite statement to the world and governments that we have special rights and that the Canada-U.S border does not exist for natives people. The Jay Treaty of 1794 was for the intruders only. The treaty between the British and Americans has withstood many legal challenges by governments in the United States and Canada. It affirms our natural rights as the original peoples of turtle island. 

It is an international treaty between foreign nations with a provision [Article III] respecting our natural freedom and right to live freely on our land where creation placed us without any hindrance. 

All natives benefitted from this action by kanionkehaka/Mohawks who stood at the Customs House on that cold day on December 20, 1968. 

The rotinoshonni’onwe Iroquois have a long history of making such statements to the world. Annually in Niagara Falls the natives have marched across the Niagara River since the 1920s to remind them of our free passage and their borders do not apply to us.

Another history making event was when Paul K. Diabo of kahnawake, an ironworker, was ordered by the American government to be deported to Canada as an alien. The Supreme Court of the United States upheld the rights of natives to cross freely between Canada and the United States without hindrance or molestation. 

In 1968 the world saw a small group of Mohawks and other natives make a declaration that we are not going to allow anyone to interfere with our natural rights.  

This commemoration at Concordia University is a significant event. Everyone is welcome.  

THIS FILM AND OTHERS WILL BE SHOWN: CINEMA POLITICA NETWORK, “YOU ARE ON INDIAN LAND”, 1455 de Maisonneuve, Hall Building, Montreal, Quebec. Monday, Oct. 22nd 2018. Arrive at 6.30 pm. 37 mins. followed by open discussion.
