Aug. 8, 2024. On August 2nd, 3rd. and 4th, 2024, The Kahnawake Hunters faced the <\/strong><strong>Elora Ontario Mohawks, a non-native team of the Ontario Junior B Lacrosse League at the championship finals. The non-native parents and fans showed the spectators\u00a0 their method for beating their opponents, the real kanienkehaka\/Mohawks at that game.\u00a0 The appeared t be using a formula of acting out some of their culture with rude behaviour. Lacrosse is a traditional game of the natives who follow strict sportsmanlike behaviour.\u00a0 This kind of behaviour would not be acceptable at their ultimate sport event, the Olympics, which is presently taking place right now in Paris?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>At\u00a0 some recent games some of the settler mothers waited outside of the arena and yelled at and spit on the faces of our children. Definitely not acceptable.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>One spectator from Kahnawake stated in a facebook post, &#8220;I came to Elora to watch the Kahnawake Hunters and I was genuinely shocked by how the crowd was behaving. I started recording their chants &#8217;cause i also thought it was funny that these white kids lacrosse team was called &#8220;Mohawks&#8221;. They sure weren&#8217;t acting like their namesake, the Mohawks. I got yelled at by one kid, &#8220;Turn your fucking phone off!&#8221; Personally, I think they were just embarrassed by their terrible actions.&#8221; If they call themselves Mohawks they should play the game like true Mohawks, the kanienkehaka, as it is a community game of respect and healing, to bring everyone together with the good message that here on this planet we are all brothers and sisters with the same mother and the same father. TAKE A LOOK AT SOME OF THEIR ACTIONS at a game we call &#8220;<em>the game of creation<\/em>&#8220;.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 584px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-16390-1\" width=\"584\" height=\"1038\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/mohawknationnews.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ELORA-1.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/mohawknationnews.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ELORA-1.mp4\">https:\/\/mohawknationnews.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ELORA-1.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mohawknationnews.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ELORA-3.mp4\">ELORA<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_16155\" style=\"width: 203px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16155\" class=\"size-full wp-image-16155\" src=\"https:\/\/mohawknationnews.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/images-6.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"193\" height=\"261\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-16155\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Be inconspicuous!<\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong> \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mohawknationnews.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/images-7.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15782\" src=\"https:\/\/mohawknationnews.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/images-7.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"275\" height=\"183\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong>ELORA &#8216;PRETEND-MOHAWK&#8217;
