MNN: Protho. Aalto Turning Soprano

MNN:  PROTHO.  AALTO MAY BE TURNING SOPRANO SOON.  Kanekota & the Queen [FC T-1396-12]

MNN.  On October 11, 2012, Thahoketoteh of Kanekota filed an appeal motion at the Federal Court to quash Prothonotary Kevin Alto’s illegal decision of October 5.  No reason was given forbidding us to appeal.  He erred in fundamental jurisdictional law.  The Federal Court has to answer us by October 25th 2012. 

On October 1, 2012, supporters filled the court room to witness Thahoketoeh presenting oral argument before Aalto.  He outlined the history of the 1701 agreement between 48 Indigenous nations and our allies throughout Onowaregeh/Great Turtle Island.  All the newcomers’ rights to live here and provide food for their families come from the Two Row Wampum/Guswentha.  He held up the wampum belt.  “They agreed to abide by its principles and always be of one mind with us on everything concerning the land”.  Like us, the land is Indigenous. 

The Federal Court admits that the Royal Proclamation 1784 supercedes all admiralty statutes.  All laws in Canada are admiralty statutes.  They are “corporate by-laws” passed by the officers of the CORPORATION OF CANADA.  The Prime Minister, Finance Minister and Leader of the Opposition are officers of this corporation.  Their job is to provide ever-growing profits to the shareholders and continue the illusion of freedom to their masses. 

The Royal Proclamation confirms this relationship between the Ongwehonwe and the newcomers.  Should they break the 1701 agreement with us, everything reverts back to one day before the Guswentha was presented, June 24 1701.  The British were presented with the Guswentha in July 25, 1701.  They accepted, recorded and confirmed the agreement [Nanfan], by moving to Ontario.  These are the only legal international agreements we have with the Crown on behalf of the CORPORATION OF CANADA and their subjects.  It’s their passport to live here.  

Aalto went against what is carved on the statue in the Federal Court’s lobby at 180 Queen Street West, Toronto.  [If it hasn’t been removed].  It states, “This court will never go against a Royal Proclamation or an Indian treaty”.  

All Crown agents are bound by their oath to their Queen.  Aalto’s decision was in effect a signed confession.  Now we are asking the Federal Court to convict its own criminality.    

Thahoketoteh asks, “Show us how you got our land legally.  Show us a receipt”.  The Royal Proclamations of 1763 and 1784, are affirmed in their own constitution.  They pledged to “Protect” us from their encroachment on our land forever.  He wants confirmation that without a treaty ceding our land, the constitution protects our territorial sovereignty from the newcomers and overrules federal and provincial jurisdiction. 

Thahoketoteh continues his job as an Onkwehonwe from  Kanionkehaka, to uphold the constitution of the Iroquois, Kaianerekowa”, the law of the land.  We all have a duty to represent the interests of all Mohawks, including those faces beneath the ground not yet born.

MNN: MOHAWKS V. THE QUEEN. KANEKOTA.

Please post and distribute this notice.  Your help is appreciated.  MNN  

MOHAWKS V. HER MAJESTY.  FEDERAL COURT, TORONTO:  October 1, 2012.  Re:  Kanekota 

MNN.  Sep. 27, 2012.   The hearing is on Monday October 1 at 10 AM, 180 Queen Street West. Toronto. Thahoketoteh will be arguing Rule of Law with the Attorney General on the issue of Kanekota.  All welcome.

 

Kanekota, “where the water comes from the earth”, is a 525 sq. mi. tract in the northern portion of the Haldimand Tract.  The Royal Proclamation of 1783 provides that Canada has the responsibility to protect the Mohawks forever and that there shall never be any encroachment. 

Thahoketoteh states, “I would be pleased if you could come to the courtroom as a witness.  The argument will be chronological, starting at 1701 with the introduction of the Gushwenta, up to the present”. 

The Gushwenta is the formula whereby the settlers agreed to become of one mind and live with us in peace. It was ratified in 1710 when our Royaner visited Queen Anne’s court. This will now be on the Public Record for everyone.  The return of the Peace is almost here.

It has come to our attention that the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance started on December 8th to place an illegal and unconstitutional embargo on businesses conducted by Indian nations. It is a blatant attempt to economically strangle our economy. You are criminalizing customers who purchase products from us by threatening to prosecute, jail, fine and seize their cars. Even internet and mail order sales have been criminalized. This is a small remaining part of our economy that survived your appropriation of the land and resources that sustained our ancestors from time immemorial.

Throughout the territory claimed by New York State, Indigenous people are governed by our constitution, the Kaianereh?ko:wa/Great Law of Peace. As a Woman Title Holder, it is my duty to inform you that you are violating the Two Row Wampum Agreement, which governs our relationship. You have no jurisdiction over Indigenous people. All of New York State is unsurrendered Indigenous land. According to our constitution, we can only deal with the President of the United States as set out in the U.S. Constitution.

New York State is not only breaching the two constitutions by invading our jurisdiction, but they are attacking our economy. Your embargo is meant to strangle our nation economically in order to topple our government. According to the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, all Peoples have a right to freely assure their economic, social and cultural development. This obvious attempt to strangle us economically is a violation of the duty to promote international cooperation between nations. It?s an attempt to stop the creation of equal opportunities for employment and economic development for our people. It?s interfering with our social security and represents a new variation on the ongoing attempt to commit cultural, social and economic genocide.

Because of the economic stranglehold that the colonial states exercised over our people, cigarette manufacturing has become the largest employer of our people on our territories. No attempts have been made to negotiate alternate economic arrangements with our traditional constitutional governments. We have a right to conduct tax free commercial enterprises. Your attempt to stop people from buying products on our territories makes it obvious that you do not want to accord us the same rights that you assume you have on territories you claim to govern. Moreover, you are occupying our land for which you have not paid us any taxes whatsoever for your use of our land and resources. Whatever makes you think that we do not have the same right as anyone else to support our families?

You are the visitors on our land who stole everything from us. You impoverished us. Now you want to kill our means of livelihood. Everyone has a right make a living – individuals, states, nations. So do we, internationally and locally.

The Haudenosaunee and New York State have no treaty. A ?treaty? is ?a compact made between two or more ?independent? nations. New York State is not a nation. It cannot conclude treaties with Indigenous nations nor invade our jurisdiction. If you want to alter current relations you should send an emissary to our constitutional governments through the President of the United States. Your attempt to impose your will by force is a violation of international law and a throwback to the old days of colonialism and piracy. Only the President of the United can deal with us. Even in this case, a neutral arbitrator agreeable to both parties must help with the negotiations between us and the United States. Using the police and courts of the usurping party to threaten the other party is not legal.

We have never submitted to American sovereignty. According to the U.S. Constitution, Article II, Section 2, Clause 2, Paragraph 1, our relationship is nation-to-nation. The Poospatuck Nation is one of our allied nations whom we have agreed to protect under our Constitution of the Haudenosaunee. It is not legal for New York State to deal in anyway with the Poospatuck Nation of Long Island. New York State cannot invade this nation?s jurisdiction. There are no agreements with the United States for the Poospatuck to submit themselves to the jurisdiction of any foreign government such as the United States, or to any federal, state or local government without our participation and consent. The Poospatuck cannot gain federal law recognition without our permission.

In 1918, U.S. President Woodrow Wilson spoke for the world when he declared that the era of conquest and aggrandizement was gone. Everybody realized that you can?t have peace so long as strong nations continued to force their will on smaller ones. Not content to have driven us to the bottom rungs of the economy, you are continuing to search for new ways to squeeze the last drop of life blood from us.

New York State is an invading colonial society which is located on unsurrendered Indigenous land. New York State is committing a crime when it coerces customers to pay them taxes for purchasing cigarettes, tobacco, gas or any product from Indigenous nations. New York State is illegally invading the sovereign jurisdiction of the Poospatuck Nation who never gave their informed consent to give up their land, sovereignty and tax free rights.

Your illegal imposition of taxes to attack our economic base, to end our custodial responsibility for our land, to limit our rights in all the communities of the friends and allies of the Kanion?ke:haka/Mohawk Nation, to extend New York State and federal jurisdiction over us, or to otherwise compromise our inherent sovereignty is a crime.
