July 3 2024 - Balm Beach Bar and Grill. Johnny Hawke taking Selfies. In the background. Right Tiny Township Mayor Dave Evans, Bald Man, Kelly Helowka. Consuming Alcohol in Council Attire. Mayor departed and Helowka stayed consuming Alcohol alone. He called me over and asked why I was taking photos of him and then threatened me.

By Johnny Hawke:


This past summer a Tiny Township Councillor initiated an interaction with me at a Bar and Grill and uttered a death threat. Kelly Peter Helowka informed me he was a retired RCMP and can make me disappear. I was angered and let staff know yet asked me to leave and permitted him to stay. I filed a complaint with the OPP and urged the officer to obtain surveillance video to show Helowka was the instigator. I tried to follow up with the officer for a month but never returned my calls or was available. The officer eventually called me to say a charge wasn’t laid because lack of evidence. The Grill’s Owner informed me that OPP never came to ask for video. The OPP failed me in its investigation.   


Despite this being a minor occurrence compared to what other Indigenous People report, my experience shows how a Representative of a Government, the Fraternity of Police and the Business Community interconnect and exemplify Canada’s Institutional racism and the disadvantage to justice that Indigenous Peoples experience daily. Do we need to demand an external inquiry focussing on Police Misconduct relating to all Missing and Murdered Indigenous Peoples where we are clearly being targeted?  


At the end of this summer over a two-week period (August 29 – September 9, 2024), police killed six Indigenous people. 


  • Jack Charles Piche, 31 from Clearwater River Dene Nation in Saskatchewan was hit by an RCMP vehicle while walking on the 909 grid road off Highway 155 near Buffalo Narrows.


  • Tammy Bateman, Anishinabe of Roseau River was struck and killed by a police cruiser in a Winnipeg Park


  • Steven “Iggy” Dedam, Mi’kmaw was shot and killed by RCMP officers in Elsipogtog First Nation after police responded to a call for a wellness check.


  • Hoss Lightning Saddleback 15 -year-old boy from Samson Cree Nation was shot and killed by RCMP in Wetaskiwin Alta when he called them for help. 


  • Danny Knife, 31 from Ahtahkakoop Cree Nation was shot by Shellbrook RCMP.  In response to a call involving an assault, the police found the man they believed was responsible, and an altercation ensued. Thus far, there is no indication that he was armed, but he, too, was shot and killed by officers. 


  • Jason West 57, an Indigenous Man shot and killed by Windsor Police.  



There are similarities to previous deaths involving Police, including Chantel Moore, Tla-o-qui-aht First Nation who was shot and killed by New Brunswick Police during a wellness check on June 4, 2020. The shooting of Josephine Pelletier, Ojibway 33 of Muskowekwan First Nation by Calgary Police and 16-year-old Eisha Hudson shot and killed by Winnipeg Police 2020. 


It is clear our Peoples are paying with their lives as a result of Government policy However before we start putting our energy into demanding yet another inquiry let’s look at what already exists where billions of dollars have already funded such studies and initiatives where our struggle has become an industry.


Commissions, Inquiries and Calls to Action  

Since the more radical political organizing that emerged in the late 60’s almost every decade since has seen an outburst of grassroots mobilization against existing colonization. This energy that periodically explodes across so called Canada however always ends up becoming pacified and dwindles just as fast as it spreads as a result of Government coopting our People with Program Funding and Public Inquiries. 


The Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples              

Cost: 60$ Million 

The Kanehsatake Resistance or “Oka Crisis”, was a leading factor to the creation of the Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples in 1991. RCAP’s aim was to investigate the relationship between Indigenous peoples, the Government of Canada, and Canadian society as a whole. It proposed specific solutions, rooted in domestic and international experience, to the problems which have plagued those relationships and which confront Indigenous peoples today. The 1996, 4000 page Final Report gave 440 Comprehensive recommendations.


The report's recommendations were largely ignored, and the federal government's response was considered inadequate. The federal government didn't call a First Ministers' Conference as recommended, its response emphasized non-constitutional approaches. The Provincial governments gave little response, viewing the report as a federal initiative. The federal government placed a two-percent funding cap on Indigenous services for almost two decades. RCAP's recommendations were considered too radical and difficult to implement.


The Ipperwash Inquiry                                                                

Cost $13.3 Million Dollars                              

The Ipperwash Inquiry was a two-year public judicial inquiry funded by the Government of Ontario, led by Sidney B. Linden, and established under the Ontario Public Inquiries Act.

The Inquiry investigated the 1995 killing of unarmed Indigenous land defender Dudley George by OPP.


The Final Report released in 2007 found that racism against Indigenous peoples was “not restricted to a few ‘bad apples’ within the OPP but was more widespread.” The inquiry "found that the OPP, the provincial government led by Premier Mike Harris, and the federal government all bore responsibility for the events that led to George's death. 


The report included 100 recommended changes to policing, negotiation processes, and Indigenous land rights. Specifically in regards to policing, the Inquiry made a recommendation of adopting a democratic policing model. A democratic policing model is aimed at increasing accountable, transparent policing, which is respectful of human rights and cultural differences, with government oversight.


Since the report was released there have been a handful of Indigenous direct actions involving historic land disputes in so called Ontario where this inquiry's recommendations have not received much attention. As a result, the Ontario government, by not addressing the adoption of a democratic policing model, continues to support police independence.


Truth and Reconciliation Commission 

Cost $60 Million

Organized by the parties of the Indian Residential Schools Settlement Agreement to document the history and lasting impacts of the Canadian Indian residential school system. In June 2015, the TRC released an executive summary of its findings along with 94 "Calls to Action" regarding reconciliation between Canadians and Indigenous Peoples. 


Calls to Action relating to Justice state; Equity for Indigenous People in the Legal System and for the Federal Government to establish a written policy that reaffirms the independence of the RCMP relating to matters where the Government is a potential party to litigation.  


Although the federal government has reaffirmed the independence of the RCMP it has not established a written policy. In two statements made in 2018 a spokesperson for the Department of Justice as well as a statement by the Public Safety Minister declared the Department of Justice and the RCMP continue to collaborate with respect to the rule of law of police independence and where ministerial direction cannot infringe on the independence of the RCMP in the exercise of police powers in criminal investigations.  


Despite the Governments acknowledgement of “Police Independence” and the rule of law there is evidently contradictory behaviour when it comes to the Government adhering to ethics and such policies as exemplified in the SNC-Lavalin Scandal that made news in 2019. 

Canada only tolerates the "good little Indian" as evident with Justin Trudeau, Jody Wilson Raybould and the SNC-Lavalin Scandal

The SNC-Lavalin affair, a political scandal involving attempted political interference with the justice system by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, and the Prime Minister's Office. Canada's Ethics Commissioner found that Trudeau improperly influenced Minister of Justice and Attorney General Jody Wilson-Raybould to intervene in an ongoing criminal case against SNC-Lavalin by offering a deferred prosecution agreement. Wilson-Raybould said there was a breach of prosecutorial independence when members of the government pressured her to offer SNC-Lavalin a DPA instead of continuing with a criminal prosecution.


April 2, 2019 Wilson-Raybould the first Indigenous Person to hold office of Attorney General and Minister of Justice was kicked out of the Liberal Caucus by Justin Trudeau. This is how the Prime Minister behaves towards a well established Indigenous Woman in the era of Truth and Reconciliation and ending violence towards Indigenous Women.  


The Truth and Reconciliation Commission Report concluded that Canada is guilty of committing cultural genocide against Indigenous people.





National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls          Cost 53.8 Million 

In response to the grassroots collectives of Indigenous Women and Families along with the Calls to Action in the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, this Public Inquiry from 2016 to 2019 studied the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women crisis. The study included reviews of law enforcement documents as well as community hearings and testimonies. The final report of the inquiry concluded that the crisis constituted an ongoing "race, identity and gender-based genocide.” The Final Report includes 231 individual Calls for Justice directed at governments, institutions, social service providers, industries and all Canadians.


Indigenous women and human rights experts vigorously lobbied to include a review of sexualized violence in policing but a review of police as perpetrators was specifically excluded from the Terms of Reference. Indigenous women have been left with no where to turn when the police are the perps. This has led to the United Nations Special Rapporteur on Violence Against Women, Its Causes and Consequences to call on Canada to:


Support an external review, conjointly with civil society and Indigenous communities, of the disproportionate levels of racism abuse and violence towards Indigenous women and girls by police and correctional officers with a view to implement preventative measures and enforcing institutional accountability on a concept of zero tolerance for excessive use of force and sexual harassment or assault.


In 2015 RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson publicly confirmed assertions by Canada's Minister of Aboriginal Affairs that 70 per cent of Indigenous women are being murdered by Indigenous men. Canada’s Minister of Aboriginal Affairs Bernard Valcourt divulged unreleased information about ethnicity collected by the RCMP claiming "The consolidated data from the nearly 300 contributing police agencies has confirmed that 70 per cent of the offenders were of aboriginal origin.”


The Forensic Document Review Project within the 2019 Final Report of the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls found, The "often-cited statistic that Indigenous men are responsible for 70% of murders of Indigenous women and girls is not factually based. 


Corruption of Police Agencies

In 2014, an internal RCMP study found hundreds of cases of corruption amongst its members in an 11 year period, including perjury, falsifying evidence, police corruption and involvement with organized crime. The blue fraternity of police who protect each other make it almost impossible to hold racist and violent officers accountable. As evident with Prime Minister Trudeau’s attempt to get Jody Wilson-Raybould to breach prosecutorial independence in the criminal case against SNC-Lavalin we can not rely on Government and its agencies to investigate and police themselves. 


The RCMP has a history dating back to 1873 and has been involved in several high-profile controversies. The McDonald Commission, was to investigate the RCMP after a number of illegal activities by the RCMP Security Service came to light in the 1970s. The final report was issued in 1981. Allegations made against the RCMP, included its theft of the membership list of the Parti Québécois, several break-ins; illegal opening of mail; burning a barn in Quebec where the Black Panther Party and Front de libération du Québec, were rumoured to be planning a rendezvous; theft of dynamite in a smear campaign, forging documents; and conducting illegal electronic surveillance.

  • Sexual misconduct in the Canadian Armed Forces, 2022                                                           Stats Canada reports in 2022, approximately 1,960 Regular Force members, or 3.5%, reported that they were sexually assaulted in the military workplace or outside of the workplace in an incident that involved Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) or other military members in the 12 months preceding the Survey on Sexual Misconduct in the Canadian Armed Forces (SSMCAF). This rate of sexual assault—which includes sexual attacks, unwanted sexual touching, and sexual activity where the victim was unable to consent—represents a significant increase from rates reported in 2018 (1.6%) and 2016 (1.7%) when previous iterations of the survey were conducted.


The Experiences of Jack Cram and Renate Andres-Auger


One of the first 'official' allegations of such a pedophile ring surfaced in 1994 when Renate Auger, a Cree lawyer living in Vancouver, filed a writ in the BC Supreme Court charging judges, lawyers & officials of the BC Law Society with aiding & protecting pedophiles, including a teacher, doctor, other lawyers & judges. 


Auger named the prestigious Vancouver Club (a private businessmen's club) as a major site for this activity. Auger had also challenged the BC courts regarding errors & irregularities in the 1991 Delgamuukw land. title case, specifically that judge McEachern, several lawyers & members of the crown council all had associations with the same law firm and had conspired to fix the outcome of the case. 





All of Auger's allegations were dismissed and she was subsequently disbarred from practicing law, the pretext being that her accounts were not in .order. Auger retained the services of lawyer Jack Cram, who was subsequently assaulted & arrested by sheriffs in court while defending her, in April 1994. During one exchange with judge Howard Callaghan, Cram, referring to a chief justice that had protected an accused charged with sex crimes against children, stated: 


"They should put him in jail right now. The chief justice should be in jail. Aiding & abetting an alleged pedophile." "I don't want to hear that," Callaghan shot back, unable to restrain himself any longer. “It's preposterous."


"Let's try this one in front of a jury and see what they think," replied Cram... "You may not mind the chief justice aiding and abetting pedophiles. I can only think of one reason that may be." ("Is Jack Cram Crazy?" by Marc Edge, Georgia Straight, May 27, 1994)


Bill Lightbown, a Kutenai elder present in court during the sheriff's assault & arrest of Cram, stated to the sheriffs: "You should be ashamed of yourselves because you know as well as anyone else in there that what happened there was a disgrace..." (Ts'Peten Defense Committee press release, March 17, 1997). 


Shortly after, Cram was again arrested while returning from a radio show interview about the case. Although police claim he was arrested without incident, Cram has stated he was assaulted, forced into an unmarked van, and drugged. He was placed in a psychiatric ward at Vancouver General Hospital and was released after 1 week, only to find himself disbarred as well (this also occurred to lawyer Bruce Clark during a court appearance following the 1995

standoff at Gustafsen Lake/Ts'Peten). 


While under arrest, Cram's office was taken over by members of the Law Society, who also took evidence implicating two judges, according to Cram. 


Cram himself had first become well-known' in 1986 after -winning damages for a client 'who alleged that WAC Bennet-a former Be premier-- had forced him to sell property after having him thrown into a psychiatric ward. This case established Cram's reputation and was the peak in a highly successful 25-year career, with most of his cases involving law-suits against the government. According to Cram's law firm partner at the time of his disbarment, Elayne Crompton, "Jack was stomped on big time because he had proof that could put away Supreme Court judges, and the powerful men they protect. This goes to the highest levels of power" (Appendix VI, Hidden from History).


Andres-Auger and her allegations about child sex trafficking are mentioned in Earth Into Property: Colonization, Decolonization, And Capitalism, by Anthony J. Hall, as they were described by Jennifer Wade of Amnesty International in Vancouver:


"The sex trade in children is not a recent happening in Vancouver. While doing some research for this presentation, I came across the affidavit of a Cree lawyer named Renate Andres-Auger naming prominent legal personalities and the B.C. Law Society for destroying her legal practice and libeling and slandering her (I have a copy of that affidavit listing prominent plaintiffs with me). Renate Auger alleged this happened partly because of her knowledge of pedophile rings operating out of the Vancouver Club."  -Jennifer Wade


Chief Justices and Corrupt Chiefs: Partners in Crime?


In 1999, one independent BC interior newspaper, The Radical, did report on allegations of an organized sex trade in the Prince George area involving judges, doctors, lawyers, police, and even band councils. The paper was forced to close down after one of the accused-Ed John, a long-time chief of the TI'azt'en band (near Prince George) and head of the First Nations Summit-launched a lawsuit. Ironically, Ed John was named minister of Child & Family Services in November 2000, just as the allegations against him were becoming more public, For those involved in exposing Ed John & others, his appointment as an un-elected minister "brought to light the extent of official protection for pedophiles in public office, and the systemic nature of this crime" (see Appendix VI: Evidence of crimes against aboriginal children, including pedophilia, Hidden from History). .


These allegations have been echoed by others over the years, including Squamish elder Harriet Nahanee, who has stated that she saw young Native girls being removed from the reserve to serve as prostitutes for wealthy businessmen connected to the Vancouver Club. James Craven, a Blackfoot and constitutional lawyer, has corroborated this story & stated:


"It has been alleged with considerable supporting evidence, that some of the same forces involved in trafficking young Indian boys & girls for the rich & powerful pedophiles are also involved in key aspects of the BC Treaty Commission as well as being involved in using isolated reserves for the landing & distribution of drugs ..." 

("Reprisals due to exposure of pedophile ring," Statement by James Craven, August 3, 1998)



In 1994, two elders of the Tseshaht band on Vancouver Island stated that "Edward John &, Nuu-Chah-Nulth Tribal Council members Ron Hamilton and Charlie Thompson have embezzled money from the Union of BC Indian Chiefs & the federal Department of Indian Affairs to finance an extensive drug trafficking & pedophile network" that sells drugs on Native reserves &

supplies Native children to wealthy clients in Vancouver, Victoria, Whistler and other areas (quoted in Appendix VI, Hidden from History). 


Similar claims were. made in Vancouver by speakers at a public tribunal on Residential

Schools held in 1998, organized by the International Human Rights Association of American Minorities (IHRAAM, a United Nations NGO with the Economic & Social Council), including Frank Martin & Helen Michel, Harriet Nahanee, and four others.


According to Martin, "Ed John sponsors drug trafficking on northern reserves using Treaty Commission & Indian Affairs money. He's the power up there... but for Ed John to keep power he needs to manipulate drugs & the cops" (Appendix VI, Hidden from History).


On November 14, 2019, John was charged with four counts of having sexual intercourse with a woman without her consent. The alleged criminal acts date to 1974 and involve the same woman, whose identity is protected by court order. The Carrier Sekani Tribal Council issued a statement indicating that as the matter is before the courts it would have no comment. 


On July 8, 2020 he entered a plea of not guilty. His trial began in provincial court in Prince George on July 25, 2022. On the second day of the trial, the complainant broke down under cross-examination by John's lawyer, who brought out inconsistencies in her testimony and produced a photograph showing that John had long hair at the time, contradicting her testimony that his hair was short. After an extended consultation with the complainant the Crown determined that the prospects for conviction were poor and entered a stay of proceedings, dropping the charges.


Allegations of an organized drug & sex-trade involving government, business, as well as band chiefs, are not so far fetched and fit within systemic & intergenerational patterns of abuse. Many current chiefs & councillors are survivors of Residential Schools, and some have been convicted of sexual crimes, yet still remained in power, In reality, however, most sexual abuse in Native communities goes unreported, with perpetrators rarely being charged & convicted.


Next Steps

Calling for an Inquiry for Murdered and Missing Indigenous Men or an external review that includes all Missing and Murdered Indigenous People emphasizing on Police Misconduct would again have restrictions due to police unions and political interference. So then we must take things a step further and go to the U.N Security Council to intervene on Canada’s violations of International Laws and Genocide. 


Canada has come under scrutiny from international bodies, including the Organization of American States (OAS), a political organization of states from the Americas. In 2019 OAS Secretary General Luis Almagro published a letter to Chrystia Freeland, Canada’s deputy Prime Minister expressing his “deepest consternation regarding the existence of evidence of genocide against Indigenous women and girls in your country.” Almagro proposed to support an external investigation into the MMIWG inquiry’s findings of genocide.


“Given that your country has always sided with scrutiny and international co-operation in situations where human rights are violated in different countries, I am expecting to receive a favourable response to this request,” he said.


The major violations of Human Rights Canada is currently engaged in his holding us in servitude to a foreign monarchy and forcing us to play the role of the legal person, a corporation in order to violate such Human Rights. A Corporation can not have Human Rights.


The 1893 Statute Law Revision Act removed Section 2 of the 1867 BNA Act. Any future Monarch would no longer rule over the dominions. After Queen Victoria died so did the BNA Act. 1931 Statute of Westminster affirmed that the U.K no longer had authority and rule over its Dominions. The 1945 Letters Patent Constituting the Office of the Governor General was a forgery by “Canada”, a corporation to fool the population that it was still connected to the UK in order to usurp sovereignty over the people and the lands. 1982 amendment to the 1867 BNA Act to create the the 1867 Constitution Act and 1982 Constitution Act was enacted by a foreign monarch and government that had no lawful and legal authority to do so. No Constitution Exists. Such “Acts” are Constitutions in name only and are only charters of a corporation. 


The United Nation’s Declaration of Human Rights

  • Article 4, No one shall be held in slavery or servitude.


U.N Declaration on Civil and Political Rights

- Article 8 SubSection 2. No One Shall be held in Servitude


The U.N. Declaration on the Granting of Independence to Colonial Countries and

Peoples 1960


Canada in its laws, legislation, courts are holding us in servitude to a foreign monarch that legally and lawfully the former Dominion is no longer connected to. The corporation of Canada is fraudulently presenting itself as a Federal Government with fraudulent documents being presented as a Constitution of the People. All Indigenous lands obtained by the UK in Treaties with Indigenous Nation reverted back to Indigenous title in 1931. Canada and its Provinces have no Treaties with Indigenous Nations. Canada is unlawfully and illegally occupying Indigenous lands and profiting from the wealth of our resources and withholding our Trust Fund which operates now as the Canada Consolidated Fund. Canada is holding us in servitude to its Indian Act forcing us to play the role of “Indian” a legal person (corporation) to continue to wage genocide upon our Peoples. 


When presenting ourselves to the U.N we need to take ourselves out of the position of the legal person and or “Indian.” Even the U.N attempts to place this chicanery of corporate personhood upon all Peoples in its Universal Declaration of Human Rights which state:


The U.N’s Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Article 6; Everyone has the right to recognition everywhere as a person before the law. 


The legal definition of a “person” is a corporation. A person (corporation) can not have human rights only benefits of a citizen (economic enslavement). The distinction of what are Human Rights and Citizen Benefits is the use of the word “Everyone.” When Everyone is used they are talking about Human Rights, when they use “Citizen” it is for the legal person. 


Truth and Reconciliation, MMIWG2S, "Aboriginal Healing" our struggles is an Industry where many are making careers off our misery. Activism also has become Big Business. Resistance has Incorporated where Decolonization needs to Decolonize. We need to sober up from this pacification and Get Organized.

Silly "Indians" always fooled and mesmerized by Whitemans Tricks. This ain't Taylors Land Acknowledgement this Statement is from Roger's Communications Inc where it is likely included in her contract for Roger’s to express its commitment towards Truth and Reconciliation.


This is considered an "exclusive advertisement" in a lucrative "real estate space" without a doubt valued at an estimated few million where Rogers Inc will write this up as a charitable donation and donate some funds to a charity engaged with Indigenous initiatives to get a tax break.


Corporations can claim a deduction for charitable donations of up to 75% of their net income for the year. Tim Hortons does this with it’s Trauma Donut Campaign on “Orange Shirt” Day.


Truth and Reconciliation is Big Business, an Industry where Yes! the system “Gives Back” after ensuring tax breaks to recover any loss. Donations go to the Non-Profit Industrial Complex of Charitable Orgs that are also huge Corporations. Funds then go through a bureaucracy to be finally distributed to smaller community non-profit orgs. Any effective projects of actual Truth and Reconciliation only receive crumbs as funds have to be spread out also the Non-Profit Industrial Complex will only fund Canada’s “Good Little Indian.”


At the end of the day, Corps like Rogers, the Oil and DeForestation Industries although they are funding and sponsoring things like INDSPIRE Awards, Powwows and giving charitable donations are still exploiting our territories, depleting resources and removing us from our Territories.


Reconciliation is not a word that was randomly chosen to reflect this initiative of Canada’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission in 2008. “Reconciliation” is the “Sacrament of Penance” of the Roman Catholic Church. Reconciliation means “to come back under god” and penance means “voluntary self punishment”. The Sacrament of Penance is also the monetization of Sin and is the process of modern day Courts. The Roman Catholic Church claims to be the representative of God on Earth. There are many of our People prancing around in Ribbon Shirts and Ribbon Skirts employed under Truth and Reconciliation to help bring others back under God, “the crown” monetizing the sins of the Church. This is what is being accepted when Indians accept the scheme of Truth and Reconciliation.

The Scheme of Band Council and the Legal Person


Canada's Coat of Arms' Motto "A Mari Usque Ad Mare", "From Sea to Sea". This is taken from Psalm 72:8 of the King James Bible, which reads, "He shall have dominion also from sea to sea." Which also connects to the Roman Catholic Church's Papal Bull; Inter Caetera, "Doctrine of Discovery", which imposes Maritime Law, dominion over all lands and further connects to the Book of Revelations description of the "Whore of Babylon" which exists "In the waters in all corners of the World." (The Whore of Babylon is the Roman Catholic Church) Canada is a corporation of "the Crown".

Canada only recognizes four Indigenous Groups; Indians, Metis, Inuit and Non Status Indians. Although Inuit and Metis are distinct they are legally defined as Indians; Non Status Indians are also defined as Indians. The legal definition under the Indian Act of an Indian means a person; The legal definition of a person is a corporation. A corporation is not a People and can not have Treaty or Human Rights.


The Indian only receives limited benefits and privileges as a ward of the State via Section 91 of the Constitution Act 1867. In Section 35 of the 1982 Constitution Act; Aboriginal and Treaty Rights were not defined and are only being defined through Supreme Court Decisions that rely on Johnson v. McIntosh 1823 that set precedence for the Papal Bull, Inter Caetera (Doctrine of Discovery). Any so called Aboriginal and Treaty Right under Section 35 affirms Canada’s Sovereignty over all Indians and Indian lands.


Canada declares it only deals with Elected Councils as Representatives of an Indian Band. Elected Councils are statutory creations of Canada under section 74 (1) of the Indian Act. An Elected Council under the Federal Courts Act is considered a Federal Board. An Indian Band (First Nation) is a Juridical Person (Corporation).


Canada when dealing with Elected Councils is dealing with itself therefore any and all matters between Canada and Elected Councils in regards to rights and territories of Indigenous Nations are fraudulent and in conflict of interest and void.


The Birth Certificate extinguishes Sovereignty


When we are born, we are born of the standing as a living human being with fundamental rights and freedoms to life, liberty and security of the individual. We are nationals of the land that we’re born on and have a birth right to the wealth created from it to sustain our life. These freedoms and our birth right to the wealth of the land is handed over to the State in exchange for limited privileges of a citizen when our parents register us through the Birth Certificate.


The Birth Certificate creates the legal person, a corporation. The name of this corporation appears to be your name and is seen in all capital letters. We are misled to believe we are the entity of the Birth Certificate, the legal person, a corporation. The Birth Certificate also creates a Trust Estate that the State misleads you to act as the Trustee and it as the Beneficiary throughout your life. The Birth Certificate represents all the taxes you will pay from your life’s labour and your birth right to the wealth created from the resources of the land. The Birth Certificate is monetized and used as a Security and Trust Instrument by the State.

The Social Insurance Program is an extension of this racket in which you are required to have a Social Insurance Number to work in the corporation of Canada. Your labour is exploited and profits made from your labour is heavily taxed and you become an economic slave. Canada’s Income Tax Act defines “Employeed” as performing the duties of an office of employment. In this Act “Employee” includes an officer. If you live life under this Program you are an Officer of the Corporation of Canada.


In the Indian Act a Band Member means a person whose name appears on a Band List or who is entitled to have his name appear on a Band List. A Band Member is an Indian, a Person, Corporation registered through the Birth Certificate. Band Members who register to have a SIN Card are Officers of Canada. All Matters where Band Members ratify any agreements in regards to rights, title and territories of Indigenous Nations are void, fraudulent and is a conflict of interest as they are Officers of Canada.


What’s being Accepted by Indians who engage legally with Canada


Indian Act Elected Councils when engaging with Canada use lawyers; a lawyer is “one who is authorized and licensed by the private Guilds of the Bar to practice law.” The Private Guilds of the Bar since the middle ages have been using merchant principles to commercialize the law and personally profit from crime; This means that the current justice system is innately compromised as everything is in favour to benefit these Private Guilds of the Bar. An attorney means “someone who proves you have given up your rights” and barrister is “someone who represents a dunce”. This is what is being accepted by Indians when they use lawyers.


Elected Councils and their Membership when engaging with Canada are doing so under the legal position as an Indian which is accepting their standing under the Roman Catholic Church’s Papal Bull, Inter Caetera (Doctrine of Discovery) where Canada, a corporation of the Crown (Roman Catholic Church) claims sovereignty over Indians and their lands.


Indian Act Elected Councils when engaging with Canada are also legitimizing Canada as a lawful and legal state when it is not. The UK 1893 Statute Law Revision Act removed Section 2 of the 1867 BNA Act which removed any future monarch’s rule over the dominions therefore when Queen Victoria died so did the BNA Act. The 1931 Statute of Westminster further extinguished the Crown’s rule and possession over its Dominions allowing such colonies to become free independent States. So called Canada since has continued to mislead it’s population that it is a constitutional monarchy so that it can usurp the sovereignty of the People. The 1982 Constitution Act and amendment of the 1867 BNA Act were enactments of a foreign government and monarchy who had no authority to do so via the 1893 Statute Revision Act and Statute of Westminster. No Constitution Exists.


As per the 1931 Statute of Westminster all Treaties between Indigenous Nations and the UK have been extinguished and all lands obtained by the Crown through the Treaties consequently reverted back to Indigenous title and possession. Canada and its Provinces are illegally occupying our territories. Our Nations never made agreements to agree for the Dominion of Canada to be a successor State on behalf of the Crown and occupy our Territories and represent the Crown in such Treaties. We never made agreements to be subjugated under Canada’s Indian Act and have our Trust Fund misappropriated by Canada which is now its Consolidated Revenue Fund.


In Specific Claims Settlement Agreements these Elected Councils and Band Members are offered Financial Compensation and the ability to purchase limited lands back on a willing buyer, willing seller basis which falls under Canada’s Additions to Reserve Process. A Reserve (First Nation) is a parcel of land where legal title is held by the Crown for the use and benefit of Indians. Any lands purchased is still designated as “Crown Land.” Indians can’t own land.


In Settlements of such Historic Injustices, Financial Compensation is given in the form of debt based “Money.” To summarize this money is created when a Private International Bank lends their debt based “chequebook” money created by entering digits on a computer and transferring it to a Government. This borrowed money is attached with an outrageous compound interest rate which can never be paid back. The resources of Indigenous Territories are being depleted, misappropriated to forever feed this interest of this International Banking Scheme.


A Fiat Money System is also being used where Money is not backed by a commodity

like gold or sliver. This Money only discharges debt, it is colourable money (counterfeit) authorized by a Government that can be spent all over the Nation, it is declared legal tender for all debts private and public and the limited liability is that you cannot be sued for not paying your debts (bills and purchases, loans etc). If the economic system was to crash all money would be worth nothing as it is backed by nothing. This is a system of fraud and counterfeit.


Elected Council and Band Members when engaging in the Specific Claims Process are made to extinguish the underlying Indigenous Title of Indigenous Territories. This is what they accept doing. Indians however can not extinguish title to the lands as they are acting in the legal position as Indians. Remember Indians under the Indian Act don’t have title to any land, so how can they be asked to extinguish their title to these large vasts of Territory in these Settlements.


Each Year an estimated $5 Billion is allocated to Canada’s 630 Indian Bands where each Band receives an estimate $7 million for programs and services to operate their community. This funding is provided under Section 91 of the Constitution Act 1867 for Indians subject to the Indian Act. Canada’s Indian Policy is to get out of this fiduciary responsibility and extinguish any remaining responsibilities to the Indian. Canada is doing this by getting Indians out of the Indian Act through Self Government Agreements. Since Indians are extinguishing their assumed title to large masses of territory in Land Claim Settlements they can not be Self Governing with no leverage to a mass land base and where reserves are not even close enough in the natural resources to produce wealth to operate their communities. This leaves Reserves to eventually become annexed to neighbouring municipalities and become under the jurisdiction of the provinces. This is what is entrenched in Canada’s Self Government Agreements such as Anishinabek Nation Governance Agreement, Anishinabek Education Agreement, First Nations Lands Management Regime. This is what Indians are accepting.


The Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada was established to document the history and impacts of Residential Schools. The Commission released 94 “calls to action” regarding reconciliation between Canadians and Indigenous Peoples. This initiative has created an Industry where Truth and Reconciliation is now Big Business. There are many opportunities in the form of funding and grants with very substantial amounts of money being offered for Indians to become equal with Canadians and reclaim culture. These opportunities are for the Indian and to qualify one has to accept being the Indian, a legal person to receive any financial opportunities. To be Colonized. Canadians also will only accept and tolerate the romanticism of the culture and the good little Indian. Modern day agenda of the Residential Schools.


Reconciliation is not a word that was randomly chosen to reflect this initiative. Reconciliation is the Sacrament of Penance of the Roman Catholic Church. Reconciliation means “to come back under god” and penance means “voluntary self punishment”. The Sacrament of Penance is also the monetization of Sin and is the process of modern day Courts. The Roman Catholic Church claims to be the representative of God on Earth. There are many Indians being employed to help bring others back under God, monetizing the sins of the Church. This is what is being accepted when Indians accept initiatives of this Scheme.
