MNN: on the Canadian apology to the Indigenous

CANADA CONFESSES TO PART OF ITS CRIMES
AGAINST HUMANITY

THERE HAS FINALLY BEEN AN OFFICIAL APOLOGY FOR ‘MURDER”, RAPE… SODOMY, PEDOPHILIA, GERM WARFARE, STERILIZATION, MEDICAL EXPERIMENTS AND WHO KNOWS MAYBE EVEN NECROPHILIA OF INDIGENOUS CHILDREN IN ORDER TO “STEAL” OUR LAND AND RESOURCES.

This is a start. Now we have to deal with other big

issues, sovereignty and resources.


Our people were kidnapped and held hostage for

three to four generations. Genocide is taking children

away and killing them. It was only a small part of a

bigger story of “gangsterism” and greed. Don’t be

fooled! That evil program is still in full swing.


Canada has no intention to stop. They continue

to drive us off our land, to criminalize us,

incarcerate us and to refuse to return control of

our land and resources to us.


We don’t like being lied to. Saying “sorry” doesn’t

cut it. Canada practically admitted to “murder” and

theft in the first degree. While Prime Minister Harper

was reciting his apology in the House of Commons,

a permanent injunction was being granted to the city

of Brantford to stop us from going onto our own

lands to stop illegal development and to bring in the

army if necessary. What forked-tongued two-faced

hypocrisy! Anywhere else in the world when a people

are threatened with military force, it is a “declaration

of war”.


Every Canadian benefited from these crimes against

humanity. They came her from Europe with empty

hands. Stephen Harper said, “We are planning to

move on”. This means that the perpetrators of these

heinous crime have to be prosecuted in the

international courts. More important, Canada is

bound to the original relationship as “visitors” to our

land who made promises to live peacefully under the

Two Row Wampum Agreement. We are the land and

resources owners and they have to negotiate with us

to extend their stay.


Our future is tied to the Kaianereh’ko:wa, the law of

Onowaregeh, Turtle Island. We cannot “bury the

hatchet”! Planned murders of our children by the

church and state cannot be pardoned anywhere.

Canada broke international law to which they are

bound.


At this moment illegal deals are being made by the

government and its puppet band councils to

deceive the people. Fraud and corruption is used

to privatize under NAFTA every unsurrendered

river and stream in British Columbia to send our

water to California.


Is this desperation because Canada and the U.S.

or someone is trying to keep the colonial scam

going? Canada absolved the churches of

responsibilities. The program to murder school

children and to put them in unmarked graves was

not random. All the churches , Catholic, Anglican,

Presbyterian and United, stepped up to the plate to

do dirty deeds for the state. It was part of the

“pogram” to remove us completely to claim

Onowaregeh, Turtle Island. What kind of special

education does it take to forget that it’s wrong to

kill kids?


Harper admitted they did not know our culture, our

traditions and did not respect our basic human

rights. They still don’t. Now that they have clearly

admitted to being “busted”, shouldn’t the genocide

stop?


The colonizers must respect our sovereignty,

identity and culture. To start, they must stop all

uranium and diamond mining, clear cutting and

contamination of our environment. Stop trying to

put us away in jails and holding cells to punish us

for protecting the environment. Every single piece

of Turtle Island, our resources and possessions

must be returned to us so we can regnerate the

natural beauty and health of Turtle Island.


Nothing is going to change if they can help it. To

stop racism and lies the true history has to be

taught in every school. Our education and

language programs have to be improved. Clean

water and decent homes have to be provided to

all of us. All the elements that work together to

demoralize our young people and incite them to

commit suicides have to be stopped.


Canada is going to put up a monument as a

symbol of this apology. Take down those

hideous monuments to the true murderers of our

people like Champlain, Humphrey Gilbert,

Laverendrye, DeDenonville, Amherst and other

scoundrels. Towns are still named after these

mass murderers. Get rid of that depiction of the

tied up Indian in bondage on the Clock Tower of

the Parliament Buildings. We cannot rebuild our

nations on monuments or empty words. Real

reconciliation means restoring the traditional

homelands and resources of the various

Indigenous people who have been dispossessed.

Anything less is a farce.

Canada stage managed this performance. It was

sickening to see colonial lap dog Phil Fontaine

of the Assembly of First Nations accept Harper’s

apology on our behalf. It was a pre-written script

probably by government spinners. We were

never asked if we wanted him to accept this

apology or to even accept it. The supporting

remarks were made by the heads of colonially

funded “puppy dog” organizations that jump to

their “master’s” commands.


The money being offered to some of the victims

is our own money. Any profit from our lands held

in trust is “blood money”. We want an economy.

Stop depriving us and forcing us out of our

communities. Release all our trust funds

immediately. Everything that was “kicked back”

to the Vatican must be returned to us. These

churches that committed these atrocities have

investments from our lands worth billions and

have declared stock portfolios well over $100

million. Release these to us. Give us our funds

that the Canadian government holds as “trust

funds”, namely the “Indian Fund”, the

“Consolidated Revenue Fund” and the

“Contingent Liability Fund”.



All levels of government should stop issuing

illegal permits for exploitation of our lands and

resources. Stop using our land and resources as

collateral to borrow on international money

markets.


The Queen and all the other “carpet baggers” who

head the corporate criminal organizations that

murder, rape and pillage us and our possessions

should now be prosecuted in the international

court for their crimes.

Our parents were threatened with imprisonment

if they did not release their children to the control

of the church and state. How long does it take to

forget what our children saw – other children

being murdered and even being forced to help

bury them. They were deliberately given

contagious diseases from which many died.

There was out-and-out murder of over 50,000

at the hands of teachers, priests, nuns and staff.

Our children were used in experiments by German

doctors in the 1930’s and then disposed of. The

children were threatened to never tell anyone

about it.


It was the “I Apologize” Show, with Phil in a war

bonnet, with smudging, all players with their

scripts in hand and an audience seated

strategically around. Someone on cue even

yelled from the House of Commons gallery, “Way

to go, Phil. You are our leader”. This government

sanctioned desperado is not our leader! The

sanitized plot did not include murder, torture,

sterilization, kids witnessing killings and medical

experiments on them.

You, the abusers, are in dire need of healing. In

Australia the prime minister apologized to the

Aborigines and they now live under a form of

‘martial law’! What will happen now when the army

is brought in on us as happened in 1990?
