POPULATION:
- 23,000 + live in Akwesasne, as reported by Mohawk Council of Akwesasne (MCA) and St. Regis Mohawk Tribe (SRMT).
- Of those 23,000, about 400 are allowed to vote in the forcefully imposed government elections of MCA and SRMT.
- Of the 400 or so that are allowed to vote, many of them do not live in Akwesasne and never will live in Akwesasne.
LAND BASE:
MCA, is a Canadian corporation, and reports that the reserve land base is 11,711 acres of undisputed land.
INDIAN, MOHAWK, ABORIGINAL, FIRST NATION, NATIVE, INDIGINOUS, CITIZEN, MEMBER, SRMT, MCA, DUAL CITIZEN, TRIBE, MOHAWK NATION…
Every title is actually an English language term that was created to trick the Original Sovereign of Turtle Island, into becoming a slave or property of the British Empire. Research the names in Black’s Law 1st Edition. Use the links on the right side of this website to research this on your own, because English language and English schools are not going to teach this information.
English speakers mistakenly refer to Onkwehonwe as ‘Mohawk, or any of the above mentioned English terms’. Some just lack knowledge about the situation, while others purposefully try to trick Onkwehonwe into referring to themselves as a term that was created to make them the citizens and property of the British, USA, or Canada corporations. This started with our grandparents when the British Pope & Queen hired Nuns and Priests to torture, rape, beat, and kill our grandparents, when they were still small children, if they spoke their own languages. That is partially why so many of us are just waking up, during this prophesied 7th Generation.
Today, we face self-induced oppression and oppressive tactics from our very own community. That is what happens to human beings that are tortured while their young brains are still forming; they are at risk of becoming abused and abusers in their adult life.
MONEY, TAXES, TAXATION:
Out of the group of 400, a small percentage are allowed to access and benefit from funding, working in their own business/labor, and economic development projects that are controlled by MCA and SRMT. MCA and SRMT are USA and/or Canadian government corporations. The funding comes from the Natural Resources that Canada and USA corporations pillage from the Original Land TitleHolders in the Americus Empire.
Many of those in the group of 400, are also denied access to support for their Own Choice of education, housing, clean water, land, and other resources required for a healthy existence.
The USA and Canada corporations send money to their own forcefully imposed government agents within Akwesasne (MCA, SRMT, Mohawk Nation Council of Chiefs, Akwesasne Membership Board, Akwesasne Economic Development Agency… ). That money comes from natural resources that the British (USA & Canada) corporations pillage from the homelands and waterways of the Original land titleholders.
MCA, SRMT, INAC, BIA and many other corporations, cut off the Original Land Titleholders (Onkwehonwe) to any benefits from their own Natural Resources, for as long as they refuse to become assimilated property / citizens of the USA or Canada corporations. They also attempt to criminalize them in mainstream media.
Many wonder why we see some ‘Indians’ living in extreme poverty with heavily polluted air, water, and land, while some are living in beautiful mansions. Those that do not live in poverty, have either been accepted into the forcefully imposed government corporations or they choose the dangers of working in their own business. Either choice is very dangerous. The government often throws away their own heavily taxed citizens and steal property from their citizens, while the government wages war on those that refuse to become their citizens.
Onkwehonwe that choose to work in any business trade that the British (USA & Canada) corporations, view as financially profitable, risk being attacked by the British Corporations (USA, Canada). One can find hundreds of negative stories published about ‘Mohawk’ people, around New York State, Ontario, and Quebec, during times that the government wants to force all ‘Indians’ to become citizens and pay taxes to their governments.
The USA, Canada, and British have been waging war on Onkwehonwe, trying to force them to pay taxes to the British (USA & Canada) corporations. That is why many Onkwehonwe choose to live in poverty or appear to live in poverty, because they fear for the safety of their families, neighbors, and friends.
The USA and Canada corporations spend massive amounts of money, time, and resources to support War Teams that saturate the mainstream media with false negative stories, created to criminalize all Indians, Mohawks, Natives, Aboriginals, Indiginous, and anyone that does not agree to become full citizens of the USA, Canada, or Britain and pay taxes, fines, and ransom to those forcefully imposed corporations. Just one example of many, is how the Cornwall Ontario, RCMP Sgt. spends most days creating media campaigns – intent on criminalizing all Mohawks that do not pay Tax to his government. The Seaway Corporation also spends massive amounts of money (stolen from Onkwehonwe natural resources), creating and deploying media campaigns intent on criminalizing all Mohawks that refuse to become fully assimilated citizens of the USA and/or Canada.
When the corporations of USA, Canada, and Britain are not able to force the original land titleholders, into becoming their property / citizens ( turning them into slave labor ), they attempt to force money out of them with other sinister tactics. The jail and prison systems are a slave system, where they force money out of the inmates. Thy appear to spend massive amounts of time, money and resources attempting to gain ownership & control. If that does not work, they attempt to destroy / terminate the life of any that choose to exist as a true free Sovereign.
MOHAWK WARRIOR SOCIETY:
During past times of War, a Warrior Society would form during the duration of a War. In recent years, Onkwehonwe gather to share knowledge and practice The Great Law. Onkwehonwe are not at War with anyone and live with the 1st Law of this Land = Natural Law.
Most recently, (May 2009 to Present date), the mainstream media has been attempting to blame everything on a ghostly ‘Mohawk Warrior Society’ that does not even exist in Akwesasne. The same media recently posted stories about how the ‘Mohawk Warrior Society is DeFunct’.
It’s interestingly sinister, how some mainstream media and government agents are attempting to incite War with peaceful Onkwehonwe. Sometimes they post false stories in mainstream newspapers, where they outright lie and state that specific individuals or ‘Mohawks’ are armed and dangerous. While every witness saw that their were absolutely no weapons, no threats from ‘Mohawks’, and no danger from ‘Mohawks’.
Natural Law is always 1st Law of the Land, so Onkwehonwe still exist Peacefully, even while surrounded by money hungry bullies.
GOVERNMENTS:
The St Regis Mohawk Tribe works for and represents the USA government. According to the Mohawk Nation Council of Chiefs Website, they state that “St. Regis Mohawk Tribe was created by New YorkState in 1892“.
The Mohawk Nation Council of Chiefs, works for and represents the USA and the Canada government. They state that they receive their authority and power from the federal government and various government agencies of the USA and Canada.
Mohawk Council of Akwesasne works for and represents the Canadian Government. According to the Mohawk Nation Council of Chiefs Website, they state that “In 1899, the Government of Canada imposed an elective system now called the Mohawk Council of Akwesasne“.
The traditional LongHouses have been tricked into representing the interests of the USA and Canadian government and federal agencies. Chiefs and Clan Mothers from both LongHouses, have stated that they receive their authority from various government agencies of the USA and Canada, including Federal agencies. According to the Mohak Nation Council of Chiefs website, they state that “Likewise, the Mohawk Nation Council of Chiefs serves as the custodians and stewards of Haudenosaunee sovereignty and interests within Mohawk Nation Territory.” The Mohawk Nation Territory is owned and controlled by USA and Canada governments within the British Treaties for the USA and Canada corporations.
This year ( 2009 ), many of us witness the forcefully imposed British corporations (USA, Canada = MCA, SRMT and all under them) turning on themselves and fighting over control over money and all resources that can potentially create more money. The USA and Canada seems to be throwing away their citizens and members (MCA, SRMT) and squeezing them to the point that we see alot of infighting.
Here are some videos from the day I witnessed the USA government agents telling the LongHouse Chiefs and Clan Mothers that they will not be allowed to travel on their own roads in Akwesasne, to proceed with their funeral procession. That’s the day I discovered that we must never use the words ‘Indian, Mohawk, Akwesasne Territory’ to describe ourselves because the USA and Canadian governments own and control all of those as it’s own property and citizens.
More ‘Mohawks’ asked that their basic human rights be acknowledged by the USA and Canadian government – the ‘Mohawks, Indians’ were refused and disrespected.
Onkwehonwe, states that he is not ‘Mohawk, Indian, Citizen’ of any of the USA or Canadian governments. He stated that he is Onkwehonwe and he demanded that the government agents step aside, so that his family can proceed on their own roads, bridges in their own homelands, with their funeral procession and go to bury their loved one. The USA and Canadian governments stepped aside after Kanietekeron demanded that they step aside. Kanietekeron also cited Natural Law. As the funeral procession started to move forward with their loved one in the hearse, usa officer got on a radio and started lying – he said that the indians were blocking the road! Then he dropped his blackberry phone on the pavement and it smashed into pieces! Yay for Natural Law!



Can you explain what exactly you mean by Onkwehonwe? How is this different from all the other labels (Mohawk, native, First Nation, etc)?
I think your question deserves an entire post to adequately explain the answer, as I personally understand.
A brief answer for now:
I will do my best to post a detailed response for you, within the next few days. It’s very busy here, so I appreciate your patience, your interest, and your support.

Mr. Harvey
I would like to express my concern in your role of delivering a YouTube video without the consent of the copyright holder -Monica Peters- to CJOH news which aired the video on November 3rd. The following text is from YouTube in regards to using third party videos.
*******************************************
General Copyright Inquiries: Permission to use videos?
The rights to any screen shots or footage of third party content on our site are not ours to grant. You would need to follow up with the individual content owners regarding the rights to this footage. You may want to try emailing the user through your YouTube account.
*******************************************
According to Monica Peters the video supplied was edited to hide ownership details and the delivery of the video was attributed to RCMP sources by Scott Hannant of CTV. As you are named the contact I am curious if the RCMP has a policy in providing information to news agencies without acknowledgment of ownership and with little or no contextual information?
As you are well aware the border situation at Cornwall and Akwesasne is extremely sensitive and unsolicited information, that may be construed as misleading, sent to news media is both provocative and potentially dangerous. I hold the RCMP to higher ethical standards than is evidenced by your actions.
Regards,
Brett Mackey

Brett,
thanks for your concern. I often share public web sites to my media contacts to provide awareness on all issues regarding the border issues here in the Cornwall-Akwesasne area. I understand that the media agencies would then look into the legalities of sharing or airing any material that may not be public or needs approval.
If you have another concerns please let me know.

Monica you may want to bring international attention on issues happening here. About Oprah, just a suggestion…They always looking for interesting stories. Akwesasne needs support from other communities. You’ll be surprise to see that people care but if they don’t know what happening here they can’t help. Human rights is a subject that some people are very interesting in. Peace

I appreciate your quick response and while I agree that the copyright issues lay largely with the media agencies you do have a responsibility to the media owners that copyright law is respected.
I am still puzzled as to your motives in supplying web sites to the media. Are these actions taken with any particular mandate in mind? Is there an accompanying brief with each website or video supplied?
Certainly public awareness of the border issue is very important
although I find the RCMP’s role perplexing in that it feels obliged to take on the role of journalists in educating the public.

Brett

Brett,
To also clarify, I forwarded the Watertown Times article that had the You Tube link at the very bottom. I did not go and search on You Tube and send it out. I do not take on role of journalist but my role does include educating the public on the border integrity issues we have in this area. And the media plays a big role in getting the message out there in educating the public.
I understand your concerns and I will focus more on getting our RCMP enforcement actions out to the media.
Michael
Here is a link to the mandate of Sgt. Michael Harvey
Cornwall RCMP Detachment. They have no mention of working as journalists in any capacity: http://www.rcmp-grc.gc.ca/on/detach/cornwall-eng.htm
The Mandate stated on the above link states
“Mandate
The mandate of Cornwall Detachment is the enforcement of Federal Statutes and the Criminal Code. The enforcement units are all focused on the RCMP priorities of disrupting organized crime and terrorist activities and are divided as follows:
•Customs and Excise Section
•Federal Enforcement Section
•Criminal Intelligence Section: Cornwall has an Integrated unit which includes CBSA, CCPS, OPP, NYSP, USBP and ICE. Our role is to coordinate our efforts to make sure all the units are intelligence led.
•Youth and Community Service Officer: Mandate is geared toward crime reduction. This section works hand in hand with numerous community partners to plan and implement many varied community activities for local youths. These programs include, Racing Against Drugs (link) and Safe Grad.
Because of our proximity to the USA, Border Integrity is a major component of our duties. Given that the border in our Detachment area is located entirely within the confines of the St. Lawrence River, marine patrols are common place. In many cases our marine patrols are conducted in concert with our partners. The most recent example of this was in 2007 for Project ShipRider where RCMP members and United Stated Coast Guard personnel were cross-trained and cross-designated. We then conducted joint patrols for a two month period on both sides of the border.
I just got back from the movie & dinner. Wow, the videos showed how the NY State Troopers viciously, malicously attacked un-armed Onondaga. The Onondaga (children, elderly, women, men, women) were gathered around their sacred fire, some were smudging and NY State Troopers rushed them with Batons & Weapons drawn.
NY State Troopers smashed their batons onto the Onondaga – mostly about 5 or more NY State Trooper smashing on One Onondaga at the same time.
One NY State Trooper was caught underneath one of the Onondaga men, as NY State Troopers smashed him, and one of their batons actually smashed one of their own NY State Troopers out of his face.
More details on the way soon.
I had no idea the Mohawk Nation Council of Chiefs was working for the government(s). Who is heading this? and can you let me know who the leaders are of the other governments as well?
I also hear about the Warrior Society are they a government?
The people should know!
Check out their website, they give details about how they are created by New York State in the 1800s. You have lots of reading and research to do. Use the search feature at the top right of this website to help you discover more info too.
http://books.google.com is helpful and you will find tons more links down the right side of this website
Some of our readers suggest that Onkwehonwe can file a complaint with the Canadian Broadcasters Standards Council (CBSC) by using the following link: http://www.cbsc.ca/english/complaint/form.php

Does anyone know when the C.B.S.A. got the power to arrest, handcuff, and imprison Onkwehonwe or anyone for that matter?
Will Freeman wrote to Monica:
You ask: “Does anybody know when the CBSA got the power to arrest, handcuff, and imprison Onkwehonwe or anyone for that matter?” 1978 when the Immigration Act came into power. The powers of the CBSA to arrest are currently stated in the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act section 138. http://laws.justice.gc.ca/eng/I-2.5/page-4.html#anchorbo-ga:l_3-gb:s_138
I’d be interested to hear the audio if you have it up.

Onkwehonwe are NOT IMMIGRANTS!
Just a note regarding your source material. Wikipedia is notoriously unreliable and should never be relied on for research. It can be a good starting point, but that’s about it. The great thing about Wikipedia is that anyone can edit it. The worst thing about Wikipedia – in terms of reliability – is that anyone can edit it.
Speaking as an historian, I know that an argument is only as strong as the source material upon which it is built. By relying on a source that is as potentially unreliable as Wikipedia, you do your opinions and arguments a disservice. It is one of the many ways in which an author can undermine his or her own position.
See this blog entry, for example.
Please note that this is not an attack on your position or argument. Just some friendly advice about source material.
I agree with you Kris, that wikipedia can not be viewed as reliable. I have to add, that anything and everything published is suspect of being tainted, twisted, and half true (especially with English language forced onto today’s generation of Residential School survivors).
At this stage of my life, I honestly do not believe anything 100% blindly. I always tell my friends and family to never believe anything I say, and to use their own brains to think for themselves.
I present my thoughts, info, discoveries here and I know that readers will use their own brains to process everything the best for their own goals.
Serious, do not believe anything you see on this website or anywhere. We each have a brain for a reason and that includes processing everything we encounter.
What I believe today is totally subject to change at anytime, based on the information and experiences that I am fortunate to see, hear, feel, and think about.
“I have a feeling that the so-called mysterious original VHS may not even be the original and may be another edited version of the original. Why did CBSA state that the videos never existed?????????”
I highly suspect the VHS tape is not the original since there was mention of a hard drive in the hearings. Typically, from my experience, security recordings are captured digitally on hard drives and viewed on computer screens. The VHS tape is probably a recording from the hard drive for convenience viewing.
It seems to be an alarming trend; CBSA destroyed the video they recorded when they murdered the Polish man at the airport recently.
CBSA claimed they never saved video of another young lady they assaulted on Kawehno:ke (cornwall island) a few years ago.
The only videos I ever hear of CBSA NOT destroying, editing, or losing … are the video that they want to use to prosecute someone else.
What kind of organization, gives an accused murderer the keys to the evidence box and tells the murderer to guard the evidence?
We are in the process of researching further into this issue but from what we have read so far, we are not impressed with the border security’s attitude.
If indeed there are human rights abuses going on, it is important to document these. Word of mouth, as well as written documentation are important. But, it must be remembered that we live in an electronic age. If it is within the means and determination of the peoples being abused, then maybe it is time to use cameras both within and without the areas of abuse. I am talking about an audio and video computer-controlled system that is deployed within general land areas and their perimeters. I do not now, nor will I ever, promote violence, but if violence is being used against indigenous peoples, then it must be captured clearly by electronic means so that it may be used as evidence at a later time.
Glad to have found your site. For once I am pleased I’m an insomniac. We have many Hadenosounee living in our Anishnaubek community. I will make certain they are aware of your website and blogs.
Megwetch
You are an optimistic soul! All the more surprising considering recent historical treatment of your peoples. I join with you wishing for better things in the decade ahead. I’ll be glad to see the ass end of the last one!
It pains me to hear (first-hand) about the treatment of Akwesasne residents by the “border authorities”. Such immature spirits to think they are better (superior) to anybody else. I’m an Ottawa native (and a white man) and have learned that if humanity is going to save itself from self-destruction before it’s too late, we must all look to the old ways of our own native peoples to help guide us to a brighter future. But still, we persist to persecute and maintain old prejudices towards the aboriginal peoples of this country (continent). I am ashamed not only for how the native peoples were treated by my ancestors, but I’m still ashamed as to how we continue to treat you.
However, it is good to maintain a positive attitude, no matter what has transpired. The past is the past and we all have RIGHT NOW to focus upon. May 2010 bring many blessings to the people of Akwesasne and all other First Nations people. We need you and your wisdom of earthly things if we are all going to survive.
Love!
