Fantino an equal opportunity abuser

July 19, 2008

Now that documents have been released detailing the testimony of Julian Fantino at an August 29 2007 court hearing for Shawn Brant, and transcripts of recorded phone calls between Fantino and Brant from the June 29, 2007 “day of action”, we are able to gain a rare glimpse into the mind of Ontario’s “top cop”.

We know that Julian is a bully when there’s a camera or microphone around to show off for, and we know that when dealing with anything remotely associated with CANACE, he is prone to making bizarre statements about violence and agenda’s that exist only in his head, but what’s he like when he’s dealing with a Native and thinks nobody is listening?

Cowardly Councilor calls for development freeze in Brantford

July 18, 2008

As reported today in the Brantford Expositor, Councilor James Calnan intends to ask council to support a complete ban on development on any land that Six Nations claims in the city.

The move comes as a surprise to some as Calnan previously voted in favor of seeking the injunction barring extortionists from halting development at several city sites. He now says he regrets his previous decision to do the right thing because when he voted in favor of the injunction he thought it would be followed by the City extending an “olive branch” to Six Nations.

How this guy can possibly believe that any “olive branch” extended wouldn’t be used to smack Brantford in the face is beyond me, but in any case he’s clearly lost the spine he had when he voted for the injunction.

Extremists calling for attack on Brantford

July 14, 2008

Native extremists are preparing to launch an attack on the city of Brantford according to the latest report from the Expositor. “They’re going to have one hell of a fight now,” said Steve Powless, who spoke on behalf of the protesters. “This is going to be Caledonia Part 2. They don’t understand what they’re in for.”

Mr. Powless was recently quoted calling for “war” if Brantford police tried to enforce the interim injunction issued to prevent Natives from illegally occupying land and interfering with lawful construction on private property.

Breaking News: Cops arrest criminal

The Expositor is reporting that the Brantford Police have done the impossible this morning. They arrested a Native who was violating the injunction and breaking the law by blocking truck access to the Kingspan development site.

The latest reports are that workers have not been allowed into the site despite this arrest, and that city police have shut down access to the site by blocking the road.

Stay tuned to www.CaledoniaWakeupCall.com for the latest on this breaking story.

CANACE cancels the Floyd and Ruby show

July 9, 2008

After an obscene run of wreaking havoc on development across 2 counties, the theatrics that have been called “the Floyd and Ruby show” have finally been brought to an end.

Not by the Ontario Provincial Police who have watched as they halted development in Haldimand County, nor by the Brantford Police who watched as they set to work on destroying the development industry in Brantford, but by a small group of average people who said no more.

Bill C-21 helps dispel “sovereign nation” notion

After 30 years of dragging their feet, the Canadian government has finally passed legislation that gives Natives the protection of the Human Rights Act. This is great news not only because it grants basic human rights to people in need, but because it also helps establish that Natives are as Canadian as you or I.

When the Canadian Human Rights Act was passed in 1978, it excluded Natives who were considered to be governed by the Indian Act. One has to wonder how long such a policy would have lasted if Canada had told black people “You don’t have human rights because you are governed by the Negro act.”

Natives claim ownership of Toronto

Bear with me on this one folks as it’s an MNN release which means it’s incredibly long, and full of rhetoric you have to read around to get the story. In fact to cut to the chase for those who don’t have the stomach for this stuff, Six Nations claims to own Toronto.

Judge bars natives from Brantford development sites

The Hamilton Spectator

June 02, 2008

BRANTFORD - A judge has prohibited native protesters from demonstrating at construction sites to prevent what he described “irreparable harm” to the City of Brantford.

Superior Justice Gerald Taylor imposed the prohibition this week as an interim measure while the city is waiting for the court to rule on a permanent injunction against the protesters, who have been disrupting work at five construction site for at least two months.

“In my view, irreparable harm will be suffered by the City of Brantford if it is not permitted to control development on lands within its jurisdiction,” Taylor wrote in a judgement dated today.

Natives rally against law and order while injunction hearing continues

May 30, 2008

Another major hearing on the pending injunction against the extortionist HDI and their representatives took place before a justice of the peace this morning in a packed Brantford court room, but not before supporters of land claim lawlessness staged a show across the street.

At 9am a protest of “solidarity” began in Victoria Park directly across from the Brantford superior court. Approximately 100 Natives showed up to wave signs in an attempt to cast a thin veil over threats of violence being uttered by Six Nations residents and their chief Bill Montour.

As the only representative of CANACE in attendance, I could feel the love in the air as I checked my watch on arrival and was told by a man with teeth missing “I’m surprised YOU know how to tell time!” I really wasn’t expecting a warm hug from a strictly pro-Native crowd, but even I was surprised to see how easily they have the Brantford Police dancing like their puppet OPP counterparts.

Six Nations chief opposes national day of action

The Brantford Expositor

May 28, 2008

Six Nations Chief Coun. Bill Montour says he is “totally opposed” to a national native day of action planned for Thursday. (Edit: What a coincidence. The day before the National Day of Nothing falls on its face, he decides he doesn’t support it.)

“This year, the (band) council has made a resolution that there will be no day of action,” Montour said Tuesday.

Chief Phil Fontaine of the Assembly of First Nations says the peaceful day of action is about raising awareness of the challenges facing First Nations communities.

More threats of Bloodshed from Natives

OPP may reluctantly do job: Fantino

May 25, 2008

As reported by the Brantford Expositor yesterday, OPP commissioner Julian Fantino paid a visit to a longhouse meeting to chat with Confederacy chiefs on Friday.

That alone is not earth shattering news as Fantino has stated in the past that he visits the area to dine with Native leaders and visit his friends on DCE, but this time he didn’t come for dinner and he was not bearing a bottle of wine.

What’s ground breaking about this story is that Julian allegedly told the Natives that the Ontario Provincial Police might enforce the law and arrest criminals regardless of their skin color!

OPP will make arrests: Fantino

The Brantford Expositor

May 24, 2008

A hastily convened Longhouse meeting took place Friday between native Confederacy chiefs and Ontario Provincial Police Commissioner Julian Fantino. (Edit: Who has been backed into a corner like a rat)

Fantino seemed to warn Confederacy leaders about the implications of the injunction the City of Brantford is trying to obtain in court this month.

“He said if an injunction comes down, the OPP will have to follow it and make arrests,” said a native person who attended the meeting but asked not to be identified in print.

Two OPP lawyers also appeared at the first hearing of the injunction in Brantford court on Friday, even though the city’s injunction doesn’t apply to land policed by the OPP.

When Fantino left the native longhouse, he found someone had put a native Warrior sticker on his vehicle, which he stopped to remove.

In an interview earlier this week, Fantino said the OPP are looking into the fees being charged by the Haudenosaunee Development Institute, which is demanding payments from developers. Fantino said those fees are just one of a number of delicate matters the OPP is reluctantly handling.

Injunction case on hold; City, natives to return to court Friday

The Brantford Expositor

May 24, 2008

More than 25 members of Six Nations rose in support of Ruby Montour as she spoke in Ontario Superior Court Friday morning.

They lined up behind the 66-year-old woman who has become a leader among native protesters at city development sites, some unfurling Confederacy flags inside Brantford’s historic Wellington Street court house.

“As a Haudenosaunee, I have every right to demonstrate in a peaceful manner,” Montour told Justice G.E. Taylor. “I’m asking you to listen to the side of Six Nations. For the first time in Canadian history, let’s do the right thing.

“This very courthouse sits on our land and it hasn’t been paid for.” Montour made the comments as part of a hearing into Brantford’s request for an injunction preventing natives from protesting at city building sites. The hearing was adjourned until next Friday.

Day of Action a failure before it begins

May 22, 2008

With the second Native “day of Action” just one week away, it appears that the 2008 installment is a failure before it ever got started.

From the time the June 29, 2007 event was announced until the day was done, we were all hard pressed to pick up a news paper without reading a quote from Phil Fontaine, Shawn Brant, or some other self proclaimed “activist” intent on breaking the law with the protection of the OPP.

Mohawks not phased by Casino Rama issues

The Belleville Intelligencer

May 21, 2008

Funds from a native-run casino in Orillia have come under scrutiny following a Canadian Press report that raised questions Monday about fiscal oversight.

But, Mohawks of the Bay of Quinte insist the casino has been crucial to funding new infrastructure on Tyendinaga Territory.

Casino Rama funds allocated to the Tyendinaga Mohawk council have built roads, repaired bridges and will likely play a vital role in ensuring residents have clean, drinkable water, says Chief R. Don Maracle.

City bylaws fail first test; Police stand by as protesters ignore posted warning signs

Brantford Expositor

May 21, 2008

New bylaws aimed at stopping native protests at city construction sites have failed their first test.

Six Nations protesters weren’t deterred Tuesday by warning signs posted over the weekend at the site of the $10.5-million Hampton Inn Hotel in the northwest business park.

“I’m frustrated,” said Danny Bawa, president of the company behind the hotel project. “Once the signs were there, it should have worked.

“People normally obey the law.”

‘No trespassing signs’ upset natives

Just when you think that the likes of Extortionists Floyd and Ruby Montour can’t get any more ridiculous, a story like this comes along.

Conflict has risen another notch at the construction site of a hotel repeatedly protested by Six Nations activists in the city’s northwest, with the sudden appearance of signs forbidding entrance to the property by anyone from a particular native organization.

Anti-HDI bylaws ’show disrespect’

May 14, 2008

The Hamilton Spectator

A native activist (Edit: Extortionist) is warning Brantford and Haldimand they’re courting trouble if they try to end protests over land claims with bylaws that prohibit interference with development.

Brantford quietly passed two bylaws Monday night, banning interference with development and access to property and naming three sites that have been the target of Six Nations activists Ruby and Floyd Montour.

The second bylaw banned unauthorized fees respecting developments and referred to the (Edit: Extortionist) Haudenosaunee Development Institute, a native body seeking fees from developers in the Haldimand Tract along the Grand River.
