To: Jean Chretien, Prime Minister of Canada
Premier Mike Harcourt, British Columbia
Premier Mike Harris, Ontario
Be advised this date, September 7, 1995, that:
- Any further violence committed against our sovereign
Turtle Island Brothers and Sisters of the Shuswap
Nation, at Gustafsen Lake, British Columbia, or Stoney
Nation at Ipperwash Park, Ontario, will be answered in
kind.
- Those directly and indirectly responsible for the
murders of our brothers (one a fifteen year old boy) at
Ipperwash, Ontario, will be identified and held
accountable for their actions.
- Those directly and indirectly responsible for the
beatings of our women and children at Ipperwash,
Ontario, will be identified and held accountable for
their actions.
We have remained silent for some time now in the hope
that your governments could finally come to terms
honorably with our rights to sovereign control of our
lands and destiny. You have always said that all you
needed was just a little more time - as if 500 years is
not enough. And what have you given to our people with
that little more time? You have given to us more guns,
more bullets, more violence, more threats, more empty
fascist rhetoric about your law and order, all at the
expense of justice for our people.
Even your self-government packages and policing
agreements drip with the venomous intentions you have
towards our people and their sovereignty. They are not
silent on our rights. They scream out your intention to
extinguish us. They are Dr. Kevorkian's tools for assisted
suicide, that will kill us as surely as your guns and
bullets.
And so, we remain silent no more. And so, we advise
you that we will not stand idly by while you continue to
brutalize our people.
For the civilized record: First comes truth. Then comes
justice. Then comes the mutually nourishing strength
that leads to a living law and order. Only in a brutally
repressive fascist state does law and order stand alone -
like police state tanks and bullets.
The latest victims of your fascist state are:
Dudley George, shot in the back;
Nicholas Cottrell, 15, unarmed, executed with a
bullet to the head.
