-- Pikangikum First Nation -- The crowd followed the police to their residence trailer, where two off-duty constables were asleep. Over shouts of “Burn it with them inside!”Lemme see if I'm understanding the dynamic here... Oka, Caledonia, Deseronto, Pikangikum (just to name a few)... and we, the Canadian taxpayer, are handing over 12 billion dollars per year... to finance a war... on ourselves?
“Police then walked approximately two kilometres to the airport carrying their personal belongings and being followed by approximately 200 people, vehicles and [a] front-end loader.”

Indian Affairs Minister Jim Prentice announced in April that his department would spend $18.2 million to build a new school.Something tells me no amount of money is gonna fix this one.

LAST WORD: Here we go again
-- OKA, Que. -- A land developer looking to build luxury homes on a tract of land in Oka, Que., required a police escort out of town Friday morning after masked Mohawk warriors and other community members confronted him.Great... the victim gets run out of town... and the perps get off scot-free.
Try that kinda shit with your non-aboriginal buddies... and see how quickly the tasers & tear gas come out.
Oh Canada.
