Caledonia: Seven Disappearing Natives

June 10, 2006 · By

The peaceful and loving native protesters at Caledonia are building up quite the rap sheet of peaceful lovingness:

- A reporter is assaulted, robbed, and extorted;
- A cameraman is assaulted to the extent that he requires stitches to close a head wound;
- An elderly couple is attacked in their car. The old man, who suffers from a heart condition, is rushed to hospital;
- Occupants of a vehicle were dragged from their car, beaten, and narrowly escaped being run down by the stolen vehicle.

Where are the police? After weeks of standing by and watching as the law was broken, including one episode where an OPP officer stood a few feet away and watched as a cameraman was concussed by thugs, the police have decided to get tough:

Police are looking for seven people who face several charges, including attempted murder, assault and forcible confinement, after a string of violent clashes at the scene of a long-standing aboriginal blockade in southern Ontario.

Yeah. Who else is thinking that these seven natives will mysteriously never be found?

    At least Harper is handling this well; let Ontario clean up its own mess.

    Exactly. Why should Harper get his hands dirty? And Dalton, having staked out the peaceful resolution position, is now quickly running out of options. As the stories of native violence mount, the OPP will be under pressure to raid the native positions. Which means that Dalton’s approach failed.

    Peace man.

    Was that a test? Ha ha ha – we’re having technical difficulties tonight.

    Violence has worked out so well for the Indians and the Muslims that other groups in our multi-culti nirvana must be thinking it’s about time to get on the boat.

    Too bad they couldn’t just fight amongst themselves.

    I have a feeling that the violence is going to escalate at Caledonia over the next few days…if the OPP attempts to execute these warrants (I doubt they will). McGunty has let this get entirely out of hand.

    Just went down to the Frontier (Caledonia) this Saturday night. Just blew my mind what I found out. We are led to believe this about a land clam dating back to the 1841’s. Wrong!!
    The Hennings (Henco) obtained the land before a another man, who also wanted it. This man is called Hill, he runs the tobacco plant on the reserve and was caught in the early 90’s, smuggling cigarettes from the US. He wanted that land to build a casino on it.
    That’s right, this dispute is about a casino!!
    Since Hill did not get the land, he is going to steal it. He brought up two women from the NY reserve, one being Jameson , these two started this protest. Then, Hill brought in Mohawk Warriors from the US, some with Army experience, the leader is (you are not going to believe this) an ex-navy Seal!! At the present, this ex navy Seal is fortifying the land, conducting weapons training with automatic guns (gun registry??) building Bailey Bridges over the RR tracks, cutting trails in the woods for quick escape by atv. Chainsaws are going all night cutting roads in the woods. Gunfire in the daytime. These thugs have gone to some of the residents telling them to leave their houses. These thugs are paid by Hill.
    Now, why are the OPP not doing anything?
    This going to stun you, Gwen Boniface who is the head of the OPP in Barrie Ont. is a full blood ‘Mohawk’ distantly related to Hill. Yep, that’s why nothing is happening about that injunction issued by Judge Marshal.
    I talked to the woman who handled the handkerchief to the wounded CH camera man, she said he was in very bad shape. The OPP did nothing, despite screams from her and others.
    Further, the OPP officer who was run over, was in very bad shape, the native who hit him aimed the car directly at him to kill. Rumour has it, the US Mohawks are quickly leaving for the US to escape attempted murder charges.

    I ask all blogers who read this, to ask your readers to demand the protestors being removed from the site, and McQuinty to ask Gwen Boniface to step down, as she has a very serious conflict of interest here!!!
    Spread this from Newfoundland to BC and email the OPP, Ontario Govt., plus the CBC, CTV, CFRB 1010, CHML 900, and other TV and radio stations and any other you can think of like MP’s, Ont MPP.
    Do this for Monday morning and flood thier e-mails, demand this be looked into

    This land stolen for a casino!!

    [...] This seems to have slipped beneath the radar screen of the major media outlets. Remember the border patrol truck that was stolen by natives and subsequently used to attempt to run down a police officer? Turns out there was a treasure trove of information in that truck: The OPP are trying to recover copies of classified documents containing the identities of undercover officers at an aboriginal protest in Caledonia.

    [...] And what of those seven protesters that will never be arrested (predicted by ThePolitic here)? What of the Six Nations involvement in their protection?: The native leadership now says the seven have been “removed from the area.” Since the whole business is “political” this is not, of course, a conspiracy to obstruct justice…Tried to kill a cop? Hey, it was political! No problem! [...]

    Where are the pictures?

    I hope no one is accepting Peter’s word as the truth.

    The truth about the ‘elderly’ couple is that they were a couple of elderly drunks who attacked people at the site and almost ran over two of them. When escorted to the police line to report them, they drove through the police line (because they were drunk and did not want to talk to police). The woman got out and there was a scuffle between her and a Six Nations woman. The man went to hospital and checked out fine.

    The cameramen were the first to throw a punch as a Six Nations youth approached them to ask them not to film.

    The answer to the question … where are the police … is … that they were in the ATF vehicle doing illegal surveillance, until they were removed. lol

    And nobody ran OVER a policeman. They drove at him and he was pulled out of the way. He sustained injuries earlier jumping from a moving vehicle.
