MNN. DEC. 16, 2014.<\/strong> This letter was send to the Governor General of Canada, Hon. David Johnson, on December 16: \u201dI write to you today about how Canada is trying to implement the disastrous US Indian Termination Policy of 1945 to 1965. At the December 2 \u201cnegotiation\u201d meeting held by the Mohawk Council of Kahnawake Inc. we were informed that an illegal settlement is being finalized between them and Ottawa. We would get some of our own money and then be removed.<\/p>\n

The US wanted to remove the Indian interest on all land in order to have complete sovereignty over Ono\u2019ware:geh. Ongwe\u2019hon:we were to be assimilated into mainstream American society. Congress ended their sovereignty and obligations to them. They got a one-way ticket to a city. Their communities were municipalized or privatized. Those with resources were taken over by development corporations. Many died in the streets. Some tried to return to their homelands. They lost everything, all their property, exemptions, education, health and economic benefits were ended. Some resisted and had some of their rights and lands restored.<\/p>\n

The attempted theft of our territory called the \u201cSeigneury of Sault Louis\u201d has been going on forever. In 1975 Chief Andrew Delisle tried to secretly remove our rights to our land through a Band Council Resolution he submitted to Indian Affairs. We fought it successfully. Now they are trying again.<\/p>\n

The illegally imposed INDIAN Act councilors and their 200 or so voters are Canadians of INDIAN descent . They have relinquished their claims to all Rotino\u2019shonni territory. The federal, provincial and band council governments cannot legally negotiate anything on our behalf.<\/p>\n

This false \u2018claim\u2019 is based on a 1680 land grant by Louis XIV to the Jesuits, who control Admiralty court. We have lived here since the beginning of human time on earth. We will work out the terms for the settlers who wish to stay.<\/p>\n

The 1701 Great Peace of Montreal was a \u201cpeace\u201d treaty, not a land surrender. The Jesuits illegally gave our \u2018seigneury\u2019 land to French settlers. In 1762 British General Gage reconfirmed Mohawk title.<\/p>\n

Kanion\u2019ke:haka land extends south to the Mohawk River Valley, the Finger Lakes, west to the Ohio, north to Lake Superior and back to Lake St. Louis. There is speculation that a new wide deeper St. Lawrence Seaway channel will be built around the south of Kahnawake. A cross-Canada pipeline is coming through. Our community will be uninhabitable. Lands of other Ongwe\u2019hon:we are apparently being set aside for us in the north to cut our roots from our land.<\/p>\n

We never became British subjects or Canadian citizens. Sir William Johnson, the first Superintendent of Indian Affairs and the Crown\u2019s representative in North America, knew how things stood. In 1767, five years after the conquest of the French, he wrote to Earl Shelburne, \u201cOne who would call the Six Nations our subjects needs a good army at his back!\u201d In 1767 Governor Simcoe wrote that the Ongwe\u2019hon:we consider their nations as \u201centirely independent\u201d. In 1796 the Attorney General of Canada noted that, \u201cThe Six Nations do not acknowledge the sovereignty of the King. They call themselves allies.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 1763 Royal Proclamation affirmed this position. Colonial governors could not make grants or purchases throughout Ono\u2019ware:geh.<\/p>\n

The Guswentha [Two Row Wampum] is our basic relationship with the settlers. They are international \u201cpeace and trade\u201d agreements that originated between us and the Dutch, English and French.<\/p>\n

Kahtihon\u2019tia:kwenio, the \u201cprogenitors of the soil\u201d, are the holders of the land for the coming generations. The CROWN\u2019s representatives cannot negotiate for us.<\/p>\n

The Seigneury fraud is being worked out between lawyers under Admiralty court rules which implements the genocide program. This issue does not belong in your Admiralty court. We will be seeking redress at the Permanent Court of Arbitration in The Hague. This is the only court where we might get a fair trial based on natural law. Govern yourselves accordingly.<\/p>\n

As the Canadian band, Steppenwolf, explain about the Mohawk; \u201cLike a true nature\u2019s child, we were born to be wild. We can climb so high we never want to die. Born to be wild. Born to be wild. Born to be wild\u201d.<\/p>\n
