“PRO’ROGUE HARPER

mnnlogo

 

MNN. Aug. 29, 2013. Prime Minister Harper ended a session of Parliament. Proroguing is a fundamental abuse of power. “When danger reared its ugly head, he bravely turned his tail and fled”. [Monty Python]. We Indigenous have always been in the way. Hence the holocaust of 150 million of us with bullets and disease!  

PM Harper: "Gotta get an emergency going to get the resources from the Indigenous to make guns!"

PM Harper: “Gotta get an emergency going to grab Indigenous resources to make guns for war!”

Harper feared a non-confidence motion which would have forced an election. He would have lost. All political parties and the Senate are muffled.  

In Canada everyone needs the bank’s approval to exist – birth certificates, licenses, car registration, medical coverage, credit cards and so on. Mark Carney set up this extensive system as Governor of the Bank of Canada. It is the model for the bankers’ takeover of the world. He’s now the Governor of the Bank of England! 

The bankers are dissolveing their corporations [cities, towns, companies, counties, etc.]. Every corporation is owned by the bankers, set up for profit of the shareholders. Band/tribal councils and all native organizations are corporations and a vital part of the genocide grid. Detroit and other cities are bankrupt. Profits are being distributed among the shareholders.  

Prime Minister Stephen Harper needs to overcome Indigenous opposition. During the suspension of Parliament he can declare an “emergency”, like making weapons for war with Syria! He needs to turn all Indigenous territory [Canada] into fee simple land to allow the banks to own everything. Then they can take all the resources they want. The people are silent. 

No everybody, Stevie!

Not everybody, Stevie!

They fear the coming financial cataclysm and are covertly supporting their beast.

Financial sectors ignore public sectors, except to collect taxes from them. The banks are picking over the bones of the collapsed economy for pennies on the dollar. They are privatizing vital services such as infrastructure, health, social and educational programs, policing and fire fighting services, roads, schools, water systems, sewage plants and airports. Public services will become even more costly. Only financial institutions will be left standing and in charge. 

"Didn't Harper tell you we're still here. You have to deal with us on behalf of Mother Earth!"

“Didn’t Harper tell you we’re still here. You have to deal with us. We represent our Mother Earth!”

Indigenous as the natural people of the land are not investors in the demonic world economy. It all belongs to us and always has. Those at the top of the artificially created theft and control hierarchy will continue the genocide until we shut up about the desecration of the environment, our land and theft of our resources for the war.   

Remember, it’s all an illusion. Only we and our Mother Earth are for real! Mass murder will stop. Supporters with good minds can trace the roots of the tree of peace to its source and sit under its shade for protection.

“Self Imprisoned Brainwashed Fools. The bank’s specialty is loan and enslavement through debt. From credit cards to the IMF loans to third world countries. More is loaned thank can be paid. Then the banks own you. Everyone toils to pay them. All the while we are made to think we are free people. We live in mortgaged cells called Home Ownership. We can’t stray far from our cell or our prison job.” [W. Russell]. As the 1491s comedians tell us, the way things are going, we might soon be going back to our own “doctors”…1491s “Slapping Medicine Man”.

THREE FEATHERS

mnnlogo

 

 

MNN. Aug. 28, 2013. In the spring of 2005 the women of Akwesasne asked the men to fill council positions in the Turtle, Wolf and Bear clans. Bear and Wolf Clans each selected three men and the Turtle Clan selected one. During the next few years, they worked on establishing various businesses to help the people. 

In July 2011 to September 2012 the Three Feathers casino in Akwesasne was operated by the Longhouse people. 

Rorakwis of Wolf Clan.

At 5.00 a.m. on December 18, 2012 Three Feathers was raided by US federal marshals, border patrol agents and Mohawk tribal police. Rorahkwiserake of the Wolf Clan was arrested at the business site on a US warrant using NYS Inc. gambling laws that are invalid in Akwesasne. Three men were named in indictments. Kahnieretiio of the Bear Clan was placed under house arrest and could not leave Akwesasne. Tony Laughing was also placed under house arrest with an ankle bracelet. Bail [ransom] of $50,000 was set for Rorahkwiserake of the Wolf Clan who remains in a Plattsburgh NY prison. leg bracelet

On December 28 2012 the Six Nations Rotiskenrakehte/Men received the issue. Six Nations Counsel of Chiefs, Tekarihoken Royaner, offered his clan family support. Kanenhariyo, on formal loan from the Turtle Clan, became temporary Ayonwes [War Chief]. 

The Two Row Wampum agreement gave Europeans limited rights to live on our land. They are bound to return any of our people who may be in violation to be judged by our people. We must also return their prisoners to them. [Two Row Wampum, Great Law of Peace and Great Peace of Montreal 1701.] Ignorance of the law is  no excuse.

The Mohawk/Kanionkehaka are the northern “Keepers of the Eastern Door” of the Iroquois Confederacy. We are the enforcers of the Great Peace and protect our people, territory and waterways. The charges by the foreign corporations of the United States, New York State, US federal marshals, border patrols and Mohawk tribal police against our people are illegal. The St. Regis Mohawk Tribe Inc. is a foreign entity. The Kaianerekowa/Great Law of Peace is the only law of Onowaregeh. We never forfeited jurisdiction over ourselves, our land and resources to foreign entities incorporated under the Admiralty law of the seas. We have a rightful duty to resist. 

These principles are affirmed in the US Constitution, British North America Act; the international Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the Convention on the Prevention of Genocide, United Nations Convention on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights and other international legal instruments that the US and Canada have signed. 

General Assembly Resolution 1541 [XV] requires the informed consent of the people before they are included in another state; the international Court of Justice affirmed this in the Western Sahara case; and the Indigenous people never consented to be part of the US and Canada.  

All individual or foreign entities wishing to discuss issues with us must go through proper protocol, which is the US President and Queen Elizabeth, who represents the occupiers.    

This illegal interference in Indigenous trade and commerce will end. The Mohawks will resist illegality and affirm our inherent rights.akwe casino 

Custer: Johnny Cash & Buffy Sainte-Marie. remind us that the Great Law will help us win: “There might have been more enthusin’ if us Indians had been losin’/But the General he don’t ride well anymore/General George A.Custer oh his yellow hair had lustre…”

TICK TOCK

mnnlogoMNN, AUG. 27, 2013. In today’s Postmedia News, Natural Resources Minister Joe ‘the-clock-is-ticking’ Oliver said, of course, the “clock is ticking”. Extractions and exports of Indigenous resources have to be done asap before it’s too late [for what?]. It’s a “once-in-a-lifetime” opportunity [said Oliver, following the used car salesman hard sell approach]! These dudes have been watching too much sci-fi! They want to make one of those faster-than-light moves on us. It’s too late! They can’t spin everything around us so fast while their corporate Injuns try to sign away the natural world. She’s not for sale! 

Resource Minister Oliver: "Hurry up before it's too late!"

Resource Minister Joe Oliver: “Quick! Corporate band council Injuns, sign here before your people catch on!”

The bankers have no “birthright” to economic prosperity and to capitalize on our resource bounty. “Listen. Things have to be set up now! Pipelines and export terminals have to go up fast as possible”. The bankers’ fake corporate grid “will not last forever”, says Oliver. They know we Indigenous People are part of everything. We and our Mother have all the power! We constantly remind the settlers that we, the natural people of Great Turtle Island, are sovereign and that international law supports our position. We must be fully informed and will never give our land and resources. 

Canada wants to speed up resource extraction and transportation to markets to line their own pockets as fast as they can. They think they have to squash and annihilate us, the caretakers, who are naturally connected of the land. Not able to steal nature, the illegal Corporation of Canada will dissolve. They will declare bankruptcy, leave Great Turtle Island and return to their Fatherland to become paupers again as they were when they arrived here. 

Onowaregeh, creation of Great Turtle Island.

Onowaregeh, creation of Great Turtle Island.

Also  “free energy” may soon be available which will impoverish all these freeloaders. https://mohawknationnews.com/blog/2013/03/07/free-energy/ Oliver said, “Canada was not built by nay sayers”. No, the corporation was built by greedy murderers who methodically carried out the genocide of millions of our people! Our Mother Earth is going to have the last say! 

Those wishing to live in peace may follow the roots to the source, take shelter and be of one mind.

Those wishing to live in peace may follow the roots to the source, take shelter and be of one mind with us.

As Neil Young reminds us all: “Respect Mother Earth and her giving ways/Or trade away our children’s days.” Mother Earth, Neil Young.

WARRIOR COHORTS

mnnlogo

 

 

MNN. AUG. 15, 2013. The MacDonald-Laurier think tank has published a report on “Canada and the First Nations, Cooperation or Conflict”. The board consists of CEOs of energy corporations and other rulers. Discussed at length is how to start an Indigenous uprising in order to execute the Warriors! This report is their “Mein Kampf” for the total physical and mental extermination of Indigenous people. 

McDonald-Laurier troops marching into Roseau River: "Where is that Terrance Nelson?"

MacDonald-Laurier think tank troops marching into Roseau River: “Where is that Terrance Nelson?”

Indigenous men they call “Warrior Cohorts” are feared because of the colonial demonization program. Starvation and genocide failed. Our population increased by 45% between 1996 and 2006. By 2017, 42% of Indigenous People will be under 30 years of age. Canada exists on illegal extraction of our resources and selling/transporting them to far-off markets. Limited security forces makes Canada vulnerable. The anxiety is that “Indigenous can chose the challenges!” because resources and transportation lines are on Indigenous territories that were never surrendered. A conflict needs to be instigated to bring in military forces to protect corporate interests! Legitimate dialogue is to be avoided. 

The main resources are coal, grain, potash, nickel and lumber. Disruption could cause empty-handed producers, idle ships, closed mills, laid off workers and foreign customers looking elsewhere. 

Their strategies are based on a deep misunderstanding of the Mohawk Oka Crisis 1990 and Six Nations/Caledonia 2005 resistance. A unified Indigenous people is dreaded. They rely on the advice of their corporate band council and national Injuns, whose job is to distract, pacify, keep us ignorant and maintain 3rd world living conditions. 

The natural people are called “insurgents”. We live everywhere. Main concerns are rail, road, air, water, hydro electric lines, pipelines, poles, bridges, refineries, power plants, oil, ocean platforms, tunnels, airports, waterways, communication and control systems. Disruption would affect businesses, governments, resource and economic functions. Main border crossings under constant surveillance are Windsor, Niagara Falls, Sarnia, Lacolle, Emerson Manitoba and Pacific Highway. 

The main transport hub is Winnipeg Manitoba. An 85,000 “Warrior Cadre” could easily overwhelm 52 small RCMP detachments. One disruption could lead to resistance in other places. Their figures are extremely low! 

The main strategies are to avoid respect for Indigenous sovereignty; criminalize the young “Warrior Cohorts” or “child soldiers” they call “young thugs”, who are all “violence prone”. Build more jails. Find the charismatic leader who will appear, unify and lead us! Heh! Heh! Heh! 

Rez cars are all we have!

Rez cars are all we have!

“Indians have no weapons”. Those elders, women and children sitting on tracks have to be subdued! Confrontations could be old cars burning on and warping railroads” [which all belong to us as everything was built with our funds!] 

Immigrants selling off our possessions is over! Can the rightful Indigenous challenge to the corporations be overcome? Disarm the Warrior Cohort [who have no weapons]. Threaten us to give up our claims to inherent sovereignty. Deathly force, if necessary, for short-term protests. Long term response is being developed. 

“Indigenous can use scarce resources efficiently and attract international attention”. Infrastructure on our land is a powerful tool of influence.  Indigenous are about stopping the destruction of our Mother Earth versus “The government will prevail”. We’d like an accounting of the Corporation of Canada’s spending of our ever-growing $365 trillion Indian Trust Fund which comes from the illegal sale of our resources. Canada cannot claim sovereignty when no documents exist that show we surrendered anything to anyone. 

All aboard!

All aboard!

The Kaianerekowa/Great Law of Peace prevents us from failure.  

Johnny Cash knows such Nazi MacDonald-Laurier gangsters are going to jail in the Fatherland: “I know I had it comin’,
I know I can’t be free…”Folsom Prison Blues

Decisions, Decisions

mnnlogo

 

 

MNN. July 27, 2013. How do we resolve issues using the Mohawk consensual decision-making process? Divide the group into three clans, Wolf, Turtle and Bear. Sit in a circle and face each other as equals. Use the basic criteria – peace, righteousness and power. 

Great Turtle Island decisions are in the best interests of all.

Great Turtle Island decisions are in the best interests of all.

The issue: pretend to be people of an Indian reservation where a train rammed into the center of the community. Ten people died. They are going to be overrun by the FBI, social workers, media, grief counselors, helpers, curious people, assorted authorities and the train company’s representatives. The people need to gather before the world spotlight is put on them. 

The Wolf Clan deliberates first. After discussing the many facets of the horrendous event, they come up with three good ideas. First, ask neutral observers to deal with the outsiders. Second, ask a neutral group to be on the front lines as a buffer. Third, the clans will deal with the victims, families and community. Everyone wants peace. These 3 decisions are passed over the fire to the Turtle Clan, who then discuss them. They agree with the three ideas and expand on the third one. Then it is passed over the fire to the Bear Clan who discuss it and sanction the decisions of the other two clans. 

Everyone is equal and everyone has a voice.

Everyone is equal and has a voice. All have a duty to put their ideas into the process to come to one mind – an agreement or a complete understanding.

This is a traditional Haudenosaunee way of resolving issues. Each person must participate so the level of knowledge is raised and discussed until it is understood. A resolution is reached which is in the best interests of all. It is essential that they come to one mind.  

The structure of decision making in international law and the rule of law come from the Iroquois constitution, Kaia’nere:kowa/Great Law of Peace. It is meant for the whole world to stop war. The US Constitution was based on this philosophy of equality and everybody has a voice. The tools for resolving issues is based on our relationship to the natural world. The problem is the US maintained their hierarchical commercial system within it. The Charter of the UN is based on the US Constitution with this flaw. Everybody has the duty to save the true rule of law for the world. 

In the corporate system the banker bribes everybody and makes the decision.

In the corporate system the banker bribes everybody, keeps information and makes the decision.

The decision-making process gives each a voice. Their thoughts and feelings are validated. They don’t wait for fabricated information and then decisions are made by a few people, which are then implemented by force. Each must seek the real truth. As the Mavericks sang: “I want to know everything..” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DlUpmv4oZrY

INJUN SUMMER

mnnlogo

 

 

MNN. July 31, 2013. Settlers’ version:  As John T. McCutcheon wrote: Injun summer is when all the homesick Injuns come back to play; long ago there used to be millions around here. Reg’lar —not  cigar store Injuns. Don’t be skeeredhain’t none around here now. They all went away and died. Every year, their sperrits come back across the hazy misty fields out yonder, marchin’ along an’ dancin’ in the sunlight. Them tepees kind o’ look like corn shocks. That smoky smell in the air is the campfires a-burnin’ and their pipes a-goin’. Th’ Injuns are hoppin’ ’round ’em… Tonight when the moon is hangin’ over the hill an’ the harvest fields is all swimmin’ in the moonlight, an’ you can see the Injuns and the tepees… When the leaves turn red is jest another sign o’ redskins, when an old Injun sperrit gits tired dancin’ an’ goes up an’ squats on a leaf t’rest. Once’n a while a leaf gives way under some fat old Injun ghost and comes floatin’ down to the ground. That’s the war paint rubbed off’n an Injun ghost. Soon all the Injuns’ll go marchin’ away agin, back to the happy huntin’ ground. 

These misrepresentations are ending. Indigenous are restless and educated!

These misrepresentations are ending. Indigenous are restless and educated!

Government’s version: Oh, oh. Let’s start a flare-up so we can kill or arrest them. Give ‘em a criminal record! The Indigenous want everything that we stole from them. Their land, resources, money. International law supports them. The Indigenous demand respect for their  sovereignty, all resource revenues, decent communities, release their people from prisons, and full control of their ever growing $375 trillion Indian Trust Fund. Our corporate banker bosses told us to ignore them. They say, “It’s not logical for us to give them back what we stole! We’ll control the “Indian Summer” of protests by our old, but more aggressive, genocide program. We’ll beef up security, safeguard critical transportation infrastructure and super arm the police. We‘ll crack down on their trade or business that gives them any economic advantages or a voice. Our corporate media won’t cover anything unless it’s negative.” 

Summer of fun.

Summer of fun.

Indigenous version: Hot summer days. The pow wow trail. Canada’s Indigenous population is growing faster than the general population, increasing by 20.1% from 2001 to 2006. Drumming, corn soup and bannock makes our women fertile. Especially the Métis, with an increase of 33.3% between 2001 and 2006. The median age of the Indigenous population is less than 25 years, which is 15 years lower than the non-Indigenous. No slave gene exists in our DNA. Only the freedom and talk back gene. Ya-hoo! As the Red Bull Singers remind us: “Darling don’t cry. We’re going to leave the USA and take you home … ” Red Bull Singers.

Our women dancing!

Summertime! Everybody heeds the call of the drum!

STRAIGHT UP

mnnlogo

 

 

MNN. JULY 29, 2013. What would you do if an old man sent pictures of his erect penis to your adolescent daughter, along with suggestive sexual invitations to have sex? It’s like suggesting a father rape his daughter. Former Congressman, Anthony Weiner, a wealthy politician running for mayor of New York City is setting this example. Former NYS Governor Eliot Spitzer, another old man, was caught soliciting a 22-year old. He resigned and became a media star. Both committed crimes against women. images-2

The rulers are dismantling US and Canada legally, socially, politically, commercially and ethically. Canada is being handed over to the US empire. Prime Minister Harper is taking apart everything so international bankers can access the resources.    

Inbred royalty is being displayed up front, the Royal Air Force and Queenie is pictured everywhere. Charles and Camilla may be installed as king and queen of Canada. The working class continues to serve as the resource extractors.   

Anthony Weiner is a litmus test of a dying empire, of parasites that steal everything and produce nothing, of openly scamming everyone, and of a decaying rotting society. Thousands of years of ethics, decent norms and intelligence is being trampled upon. Sexual voyeurism attacks women and children first, followed by the massacre of humanity. 

Both Spitzer and Weiner’s wives stood by their man. They forgave their husbands because they don’t care about other people. Vanity, status and being a mayor’s or CEO’s wife is more important. They are part of the problem and just as guilty. Guilt and corruption start internally. The collaborators are shielded. Society without morals becomes uncaring about politics. Weiner tells us, “I can be as decadent as I want”.  

The rulers have promoted the penis and pornography to represent power, war and status. This decadent strata of society must be removed from the human race or we will all go down. This should be the last exploiting class to rule. 

In the old way, men pursued the perpetrator, snapped him up, tied him to a tree and castrated him. The women whip him with a red willow in front of the people.  Everybody has a choice. Our communities have the responsibility to take care of our women and children. The masses rely on their police, politicians and congressmen, many of whom are committing indecencies. If people don’t confront Weiner, they agree with it.  

Old red willow whipping for child sexual abuse!

Give me the old red willow whipping for sexual abuse and destroying social morality, please!

Weiner, Spitzer, former President Bill Clinton and others helped open the door to the slime ball society. These sickly role models are promoted. Now other sickos can approach and attack young girls who refuse their advances. Our girls and boys must resist even if their parents are too busy in a system that makes these young girls vulnerable. A sting operation is going on in 74 US cities for child prostitution. 

As Frank Zappa sang about government designed control; I am the tool of the Government/And industry too/For I am destined to rule And regulate you.” “I’m the Slime”.

IDLE RICH

mnnlogoMNN. July 25, 2013. The idle rich don’t get up and earn their keep. Why celebrate the birth of another idle rich [Prince George] who will live off the backs of their subjects in lavish luxury from ill-gotten gains? Since 1704 all Indigenous wealth has been deposited into our account. In 1867 the British Monarch set up the Corporation of Canada to take 60% of the our wealth. 40% continued to go into our trust account over which they declared themselves as trustees. This royal baby smoke screen is meant to help them hang on to our ever growing $350 trillion Indian Trust Fund. A few greedy banking families control this money. Only close inbred relatives and their nominees can benefit from their illicit productivity. The riches of all European countries came out of the theft and murder of Indigenous people of the Western Hemisphere. idle rich

The idle rich and their workers came to Great Turtle Island with nothing and stole everything. Their descendents brag, “I inherited so much money. I’ll never have to work”. They live on tax-free dividends and other benefits. This scam entrenches the power of these thugs to live off the fruits of others’ labor, in an extravagant ostentatious manner. This gang of criminals call themselves the royal family!

They set up corporations under the Admiralty Laws of the Seas and illegally put them on Indigenous lands. The new baby represents the perpetuation of this theft and genocide. The subjects celebrate as they hope the scam will continue to benefit them.

The royal babies wave their fifty-dollar ivory rattles at each other. They’re worth millions of dollars of preferred stock. They laugh in their pram, pushed by imported nurses, all the way to the bank.

The famous Hapsburg jaw!

The famous Hapsburg jaw!

To carry on the idle rich game they have to breed carefully. To keep everything they’ve stolen within the family, they’ve been breeding with each other. The British royals are descended from the Hapsburgs and other selected royals. Queen Victoria and Prince Albert are first cousins. They are Queen Elizabeth’s grandparents. Her husband, Prince Phillip, a Hapsburg, comes from one of the most inbred families of the lot. He and Queenie are second cousins once removed. They’ve produced all kinds of princesses and princelings who don’t have to work. They get a stipend to live the life of the idle rich. To them a job is a hobby. It’s not in the plain and humble part of labor. We call this kind of reprodduction the “Kentucky Clan”.   

While they inherit the stolen money, they also inherit the legacy of the death and extortion that they benefit from. They orchestrated the biggest holocaust in all humanity, the murder of 150 million Indigenous people in the Western Hemisphere. We were genocided, wronged, raped and robbed. Our environment was destroyed. Royals, our blood is on your ‘royal’ hands. You are accepting responsibility for these evil atrocities. By accepting this you carry on the shameful legacy. You created an insane hierarchical structure of war and greed violating the law of nature. When you inherit your ill-gotten gains and fake titles, you inherit the evil of your ancestors’ exploitation.

Inbreeding can create a lot of confusion, as Willie Nelson sang: I’m my own grandpa/It sounds funny I know/But it really is so/I’m my own grandpa. http://whatimlisteningtotonight.blogspot.ca/2008/11/willie-nelson-singing-im-my-own-grandpa.html

HUNGRY GAMES

mnnlogo

 

 

MNN. July 21, 2013. In the 1930s “the modern state laid claim to the individual body for its own social, economic or military needs.” “Useless bodies were made useful by being used in the national project of regeneration”. 

The lab!

The lab!

In March 1942, a group of scientific and medical researchers went to Norway House, Cross Lake, God’s Lake Mine, Rossville, and The Pas in Northern Manitoba Canada. Conditions were “deplorable”. The people were starving. Their task was to conduct experiments on us through controlled starvation. Sponsors were Indian Affairs, the New York-based Milbank Memorial Fund, the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) and the Hudson’s Bay Company. Managers were Dr. Percy Moore of Indian Affairs Medical Services and Dr. Frederick Tisdall, a RCAF Wing Commander. 

10 Nuremberg Code Principles came out of the Nuremberg Doctors Trials addressing the atrocities of Nazi doctors and scientists as ethically wrong. Scientists viewed it “as a code for barbarians and not for civilized physician investigators” of our people. 

During and after the war hunger was epidemic among Indigenous people. Violating the Nuremberg Code the researchers saw residential schools and our communities as “experimental materials” and “laboratories” to pursue their political and professional interests. 50% of Indigenous people died during and after these experiences. The researchers argued that white people had to be protected from Indian “reservoirs” and “vectors” of diseases like tuberculosis!! The James Bay Survey, at Attawapiskat and Rupert’s House, searched for the connection between food, nutrition, and the “Indian Problem”.canada uses hunger

Researchers found a terrible “state of malnutrition” leading to general apathy, slowness, inertia and premature ageing. 

Indigenous were to be lead away from racial indolent habits caused by their easy means of feeding themselves by hunting and fishing. Moore, in a 1941 article, said that, because “the Indian” has the “psychology of a child,” researchers should not tell them about the research. 

Studies were made possible by their access to deliberately starved children through being made wards of the state. “Controls” and experimental subjects were set up of children that were deprived for two to five years of nutritionally inadequate diets and denied dental care to create anemia. 

indian madeIn the 1950s, Indian Affairs socially engineered a solution to the “Eskimo Problem” of hunger and “dependency”. The Ahiarmiut of Ennadai Lake “experimentally” were relocated to isolated animal-less areas without their consent. Hunger, starvation, and misery killed many of them. Indian Affairs Robert Phillips wrote to the Deputy Minister in 1955 that it was useful for the Department to “think of 9,000 Eskimos as a laboratory experiment and give the imagination full rein on what might be done to improve the culture.” We continue to be “experimental materials” and “laboratories” for scientific and social experimentation. They are part of a larger institutionalized and dehumanizing colonial racial ideology that continues to be Canada’s policies towards us. Though we developed most of the food eaten worldwide, we continue to be one of the most starved.

MNN. July 19, 2013. Detroit is on stolen Rotino’shonni:onwe Indigenous land and is bankrupt. The rulers have no more use for this pile of polluted steel, glass and cement called a metropolis. Nothing can be sold without our consent at it is illegally built on our land.

Glass, steel, cement must be cleaned up.

The War of 1812 is when the US tried to make all Great Turtle Island into one big United States. On August 16, 1812, a force of Indigenous allies of British Major General Isaac Brock took Fort Detroit and repelled the overwhelming large American forces under Brigadier General William Hull. The sight of the Indian war whoops terrified the Americans who refused to fight. Hull ran up a white flag and quickly surrendered. After the invasion, the natural land owners were pushed out. The bankers set up the artificial corporation of Detroit under the Admiralty laws of the seas. A counterfeit economy was created to extract our resources and start manufacturing. 1812 detroit

All towns and cities are foreign corporations set up by the banker shareholders for profit only. When a city is no longer viable, the bankers declare bankruptcy and dissolve the city. They illegally take whatever they can for a few cents on the dollar. Like Detroit, the infrastructure is left to decay and drown in debt. They become poor, crime-infested hellholes. The population drops by as much as 75%. The lights don’t work. The ambulances are old. Almost 100,000 buildings are abandoned. Less than half are working. 60% of children live third world conditions. The rulers plunder whatever is valuable. 

Detroit, welcome to the reservation! In the Secret Covenant of the rulers, “We will take over their land, resources and wealth to exercise total control over them”. 

The rulers’ greatest fear is of the “initiates” they recruited to carry out their dirty work. The initiates were falsely promised eternal life and willingly went along with the genocide and environmental destruction. Those left behind will perish. 

Detroit is one of the first of many dissolved cities in both US and Canada. As Dekanawidah predicted, the rulers and initiates are the serpents that will be washed away, never to be seen again. The people can follow the white roots of the great peace. They can come to one mind with us and start living under the Kaianerekowa, the real law of the land of Great Turtle Island.detroit bankrupt

Gordon Lightfoot sang in 1967 of the coming conflicts in Detroit: The streets of Motor City now are quiet and serene/But the shapes of gutted buildings/Strike terror to the heart/And you say how did it happen/And you say how did it start.” Black Day in July
