Diane Finley: Haldimand a Priority

Simcoe, ON – Minister Diane Finley, M.P. Haldimand-Norfolk and Minister for Citizenship and Immigration Canada issued the following statement in response to the July 8th Press Conference held by Mayor Trainer and council of Haldimand County.

“I have heard the frustration from the town of Caledonia . As MP for the people of Haldimand - Norfolk I will certainly continue to meet with the county, as I’ve done in the past, to hear their concerns and present them in Ottawa.

The federal government has tabled an offer to Six Nations, worth $125 million and I continue to work with my cabinet colleagues including Minister Prentice, Minister for Indian and Northern Affairs to find a solution that works for all sides including the people of Caledonia .

Canada’s New Government is taking action to address specific claims like those in Caledonia by introducing a comprehensive package of reforms that proposes to revolutionize the claims resolution process in four ways:

o The creation of a fully independent Claims Tribunal through which impartial judges will resolve those claims where negotiations have met with failure;

o Setting aside 250 million dollars on an annual basis for the next ten years to be used to settle these claims and ensure financial accountability;

o Transform the Indian Specific Claims Commission into a neutral dispute resolution body relieved of its role as the government’s arbiter of claims, the Commission will be able to focus its efforts solely on mediation; and

o Develop practical measures to clear the backlog of relatively small claims and to increase the flexibility in handling of larger claims.

As MP for Haldimand Norfolk I am committed to helping find a safe and reasonable solution for Haldimand County , as soon as possible”.

Ottawa may buy land to satisfy Six Nations deal

Ottawa is considering buying land claimed by Six Nations and returning it to the band to resolve native demands a settlement in the Caledonia standoff must include land.

The federal government has offered Six Nations $125 million to resolve four claims, but the offer is only contingent on natives ending their 16-month occupation of an one-time housing project and not staging more occupations.

Ottawa has said expropriation of land owned by third parties is not negotiable but one way around that is for Ottawa to buy properties in Haldimand and Brant (where land claims dominate) and return it to Six Nations.

Breaking News: Feds offer $125 MILLION to Six Nations

Proof today that crime does pay.

It is now being reported from the side tables on DCE that the Federal Government is offering $125 million to Six Nations.

This covers only 2 claims of the 26 claims Six Nations has filed. This payment covers Moulton Township, Welland Canal, and Burtch Tract lands, as well as compensation for the failed Grand River Navigation Company.

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

Build It & They WILL Come

This is the message being loudly and clearly sent to anyone considering any sort of Development these days. When it was DCE, the excuse was a 200 year old land claim which supposedly puts the ownership of anything within 6 Miles of the Grand River in the hands of Natives. The claim has long been proven to be untrue by Ottawa (as it relates to DCE at least) but the land remains occupied 15 months later with no end in sight, and the OPP playing bodyguard to the Terrorists at our expense.

A recent attempt by a developer to pave a nearby Church parking lot and improve the drainage system was met with a group of masked Terrorists storming the site, demanding the job be halted, and then refusing to allow the construction crew to leave with their equipment.
Last week, construction was set to begin on a retirement home in nearby Hagersville, when masked Terrorists showed up, and refused to leave unless the developer agreed to abandon the project. As always the OPP stood and watched. In fact this time they even assisted the criminals in building an illegal barricade at the entrance. The site in Hagersville is not within 6 miles of the Grand River, so the same excuse couldn’t be used.

This time we were told by the Terrorists who apparently now dictate the terms of any new development anywhere they want to claim as their own, that they have a claim of “Plank Road” better known to us as Highway 6 which runs from Port Dover in Norfolk County, to Hamilton.
In Toronto there is reason to believe they may be set to occupy a 7 Hectare parcel of land on the banks of the Rouge River if anyone should try to develop there, because there is a rumor with no facts to prove it that there was an Iroquois village there 700 years ago.

In Quebec there may be occupations at the Mirabel Airport site. In Deseronto they launched an Occupation and a 30 hour Rail blockade out of concern for some rocks in a Quarry. Would anyone like to try to build anything in or near Deseronto right now? The mayor has stated that developers previously interested in the area have decided to take their money elsewhere because of a group of Native terrorists whom our Government and police force are too cowardly to deal with.

They have put Walmart on notice that they will occupy if they try to build in Dunnville, and a developer in York is facing similar threats. Let’s not forget veiled threats against Brantford recently. A Nation wide day of Terrorism has been scheduled and loudly announced by Natives across Canada for June 29th 2007. When asked what he was going to do about this, Dalton McGuinty said he hopes the Natives will not break the law. That was his answer. Way to set an example and show us all what leadership is about Dalton! Let’s all hide and hope they just go away.

It’s not just land anymore that they seek to use to threaten us. CBC reported today that
Manitoba Chiefs want the Manitoba Telephone company to pay them for phone signals that pass through air space the Natives claim to own. Yes you read that correctly folks. They want payment for cell phone signals crossing through their AIR. Terrorists now think they own the air in Canada, and can bill us for it’s use.

As we all anxiously await a scheduled press release that the Federal Government is planning to spend Millions of dollars today to Appease Terrorists in the hopes that they will back off on June 29th, I contemplate one simple question.

If what I have just listed accounts for 7 land claims and now one claim of air, just how much of this Country do they intend to steal from us by force? They claim to have over 800 outstanding land claims and their method of solving them is becoming extremely clear. Terrorism.

If you live in Haldimand County, Norfolk County, Hamilton, Toronto, Deseronto, or anywhere near this Airport in Quebec, you now know any attempt at construction may well be met with Terrorists who will shut it down while the OPP stands by watching and helping them build barricades to keep you off of your own land.

Where in Canada exactly is it still safe to build without the threat of a Native Terrorist Occupation? What will be left of our Country when they are finished if we continue to let them have their way?

Reign in protestors or we walk: Ramsay

Aboriginal Affairs Minister David Ramsay is threatening to pull Ontario from the negotiating table to resolve the Caledonia standoff if native leaders cannot rein in natives from staging more protests and land occupations like the one in Hagersville last week.

“That’s my inclination,” Ramsay said last night, indicating it might even involve a meeting tomorrow in which Ottawa is to make a “big offer” to settle the Caledonia dispute by trying to make good on two land claims in the Dunnville area.

“I don’t see the point of going back to the table. It doesn’t make sense. This lawlessness breaking out is not acceptable. Quite frankly, it will not be tolerated.”

The minister made his comments after the Hagersville developer announced through his lawyer he was abandoning the multimillion dollar project because Six Nations Confederacy representatives told him they would not let it proceed without a fight.

“He (Valentini) has never been faced with this situation before,” “It’s a small company. It’s he and his wife. This will bankrupt him.”

Haldimand Mayor Marie Trainer is calling on the Ontario government to get tough with native “radicals” and send the police into Hagersville to protect the development of a 90-unit townhouse development.

McGuinty’s Cloak & Dagger Strategy Part 2

In a suprising interview, Dalton McGuinty allowed himself to actually be asked about the upcoming day of Terrorism June 29th 2007. As the premier of Ontario, we should be able to look to him now for leadership during what we know are going to be increasingly tough times.

Sadly he has made it even more evident that we can not and should not trust him, because he has no idea what’s going on, and is only now addressing this because his opponent John Tory is running on a campaign that involves actual law and order.

Those who enjoyed “Interview with Julian Fantino regarding Caledonia & 2 Tiered Justice” are likely to enjoy this. I’ll quote him verbatim and save my commentary for later.

Disclaimer: The interview you are about to read is 100% real. This is not a parody on my part. Mistakes in spelling reflect precisely the way Mr. McGuinty spoke the word, and mistakes in Grammar are his statements transcribed verbatim.

When asked on CTV Question period point blank “what are you going to do about this” (the threat of a summer of railway shutdowns and promise of chaos at the hands of Mohawk warriors) McGuinty had this to say:

“ Well uhhh my advice to our umm uh uh First Nations leaders would be uh let’s allow cooler heads to prevail. (thinking).. Let’s uh of course um umm indulge in our cherished freedom of expression, you wanna protest? That’s fine, (big hand gestures for emphasis) that’s one of the things that we fought for. Umm to ensure we can all avail ourselves of this opportunity to give expression to concerns. But let’s uh respect the law ah while we do so. Let’s not compromise Uhhh economic activity (more hand gestures) .. Uhhh and at the same time while we .. offer these.. the.. this advice uh let’s .. working with the federal government, let’s look for a way to accelerated uh the the process by which we settle these 800 plus outstanding land claims. Let’s find a uh a way to do that that puts in place a panel or um a separate authority that’s not clearly conflicted as the Federal Government is at present when it comes to settling situations.

Q. Are you going to allow some of the Native leaders to blackmail governments? Are we going to have the police out in force to stop them if they try to block the 401?

A. I I I’m confident that umm ummm the police certainly in Ontario will do what they need to do in order to uphold the law, and I fully expect that the various police services throughout the Country will do the same. But there’s a heavy responsibility here placed on the Federal Government this Is after all a National Day of Protest. Uh and when it comes to these land claims issues overwhelmingly, Provinces and Territories are caught up uh in Peace Keeping uh missions trying to settle the dispute, often disputes that pre date Confederation between the Federal Government and the First Nations community. So .. I place a heavy weight on the shoulders of the Prime Minister, Now he didn’t create this this uh circumstance now where we have over 800 land claims that remain unsettled. He didn’t create the process which means it takes forever and a day to settle these kind of things… But he is in a position now to change this process, and I am more than willing to sit down, work work with him or whomever in the Federal Government to help develop a better process.

End of Interview.

WOW! UHhhhh where to start?

It’s fine to protest (and with big hand gestures at that!) but when Caledonia Wakeup Call wants to hang a flag that’s a riot squad situation. Who has the conflict of interest here?

He told the Natives to behave themselves on June 29th so there’s no need to worry right? He also told them he would not negotiate with them while DCE was occupied, and returned to the table almost instantly. He has proven that he not only can’t keep his promises to the public, he also can’t keep his threats to criminals.

Don’t believe for one second that any Terrorist thinking of acting on June 29th cares about what McGuinty might do because they already know what he’ll do. He’ll buy any land they illegally seize, and allow them to live there with houses, and utilities all paid for by our tax dollars. He’ll bribe them with land that may already be privately owned to get them to take down illegal barricades, and like a lovers quarrel he will never walk away from them for more than 1 day.

What exactly is this conflict the Federal Government has? It’s that they have no authority to act on DCE which was ruled to be an invalid land claim in 2006 because McGuinty took that away from them by purchasing it!

Why does it take “forever and a day” to settle land claims? The Federal Government has sat at the table and told the Natives that they want to settle a number of legal, valid land claims with them and the Natives said no. They don’t want to settle valid claims because that would mean time spent doing something other than arguing about the claim of DCE which doesn’t exist. Native refusal to accept the simple answer of No to any one of their 800 claims is the reason it takes “forever and a day” to settle Native land claims.

Dalton is confident that the OPP will uphold the law? When did they set this precedent that leaves McGuinty so confident? In Ipperwash when they abandoned the town and residents including those who were elderly and infirmed because they were terrified of the Natives? In Caledonia where they have witnessed thousands of criminal actions take place and refused to intervene? In Deseronto when they kept their distance and refused to remove the bus illegally blocking CN rail for 30 hours? Or was it just last week in Hagersville where the OPP threatened a civilian with a lawsuit if he dared to release a video of an officer making a statement, then helped criminals erect an illegal barricade on private property? Saying you are confident that the OPP will enforce the law when the criminals are Natives is like saying you are confident that Dalton McGuinty will keep a promise not to raise taxes.

It is not the job of the OPP to act as peace keepers at the expense of law and order despite what Mr. McGuinty would like us to believe. If that were indeed their job they would be called “Peace Keepers” instead of Police.

With a national day of Terrorism scheduled for June 29th, campaign season on the horizon, and John Tory making his first campaign promise that he will uphold law and order, McGuinty had no choice but to try to confront the issue. The problem is, he has no idea what he’s talking about as he has never done anything but make matters worse in Caledonia.

History and current events both prove that the OPP will do nothing to stop Native Terrorists from attacking our economy throughout the summer, and Dalton doesn’t want that chasing him everywhere he goes to campaign, so he’s desperately trying to appease the Terrorists into backing down.

He truly is trying to cloak himself from any blame long enough to either be re elected in which case we’ll be stuck with him for 4 more years no matter how much he fails us, or until he is beaten by John Tory who will no doubt have to tolerate some political heat and opposition when he actually brings down the hammer of justice.

If you peek under that thin veil of nonsense he’s trying to shove down our throats, it’s plain to see that Canada is at the crossroads right now. We are on the verge of being attacked by a group of people our Police force and Government is terrified of, and what we do now will set the tone for future generations of Canadians.

Do we want our children, and their children to grow up in a Canada that is run by a small group of thugs who control our Government with fear?

Stay tuned to www.caledoniawakeupcall.com for the latest as Canada faces this crisis, and rest assured that anytime McGuinty inserts his foot in his mouth, we will be covering it.

Passing the buck

Monte Sonnenberg
Monday May 28, 2007
Simcoe Reformer


It’s impossible to say when it happened, but somewhere along the way buck-passing became a defining characteristic of this country’s political culture.

Anytime our federal and provincial leaders are put to the test, the discussion degenerates into an endless round of finger-pointing. The people of Haldimand and beyond are certainly paying a hefty price for this. It’s been at work for 15 long months during the native standoff in Caledonia.

The weaklings at Queen’s Park responded by reining in police and promising the lawbreakers that the province would not call in the military. The province then appealed an entirely reasonable cease-and-desist order from a judge in Cayuga. Having created an absolute power vacuum, the province tosses this hot potato into the lap of the federal government. But with the province capitulating, Ottawa has no leverage. Where are the federal government’s bargaining chips?

Aboriginal Canadians will not end up with six miles on either side of the Grand River….

Canada is a nation of Immigrants: the worlds most International society

CANADA IS A NATION OF IMMIGRANTS: the world’s most international society. Canada is making huge strides in eliminating racism, and promoting true equality.Sadly, one group refuses to accept the reality of Canada. These are the Indians, or Natives, or Aboriginals, or whatever the politically-correct term happens to be. They constitute fewer than four per cent of 30 million Canadians, but they cause great problems.

They refuse to accept the fact that they are immigrants, too, and that there were no truly original inhabitants of America.

Their myth is that they lived in harmony with nature, but, in fact, they were merely existing! Most tribes failed to thrive in either agriculture or manufacturing. They simply survived, killing wildlife and gathering wild nuts and berries.

Canada allows them to claim vast tracks of land for their exclusive use, but it’s never enough. Canada allows them to live a totally subsidised life on their reserves, never having to work if they choose not to.

Canada gives them every possible opportunity for education. Canada gives them special access to employment.

The “natives” are never satisfied with the reparations they continue to receive, and they regularly denounce all other Canadians as “racist”.

McGuinty urges Federal action on land disputes

Speaking on CTV’s Question Period, McGuinty said that the provinces and territories are often left to shoulder the burden of conflicts over land claims.

“Overwhelmingly, provinces and territories are caught up in peacekeeping missions, trying to settle a dispute, often a dispute that predates Confederation, between the federal government and a First Nations community,” he said.

McGuinty said he places a “heavy weight” on the shoulders of Prime Minister Stephen Harper to resolve the issue…

More on Native land claims

I know I’m not the most knowledgable person when it comes to trying to figure out native land claims but I speak from the heart when I say there has to be an end to the dispruptions before someone else is killed.

I do know that the natives are perpetuating unfair hardships on all Canadians with their demands. They’ve taken away a sense of peace and security that we shouldn’t have to deal with in the year 2007 for something our ancestors did 200 years ago.

Natives stall another housing project

Native protesters forced a work stoppage at a Hagersville subdivision early Wednesday morning.

Early reports indicated the protesters were acting alone and did not represent the elected Six Nations Band Council nor the Hereditary Chiefs Council. “They didn’t tell us not to,” said self-appointed native spokesperson Dawn Smith who addressed a small group of media at approximately 9:30 am Wednesday morning.

“Our protest is with the government of Canada, not the people of Hagersville,” she said. She claimed the construction site was part of the Plank Road land claim even though the site is located well outside six miles from the Grand River which forms the boundary of the disputed Haldimand Tract.

Haldimand Mayor Marie Trainer said she was not totally surprised by the occupation even though it is located outside of the Haldimand Tract. “I think all of Canada is on their radar screen,” she said.

Why Fantino failed - Racism charge comes to MSM

By Gary McHale

This week marks the death of Two Tier Justice in Ontario, but Fantino, McGuinty and Native Protesters are too blind to read the death certificate.

We have seen for the past year how a small group of Native people took it upon themselves to attack the very foundation of any democratic society and that is the “Rule of Law”. They were emboldened by the complete failure of the OPP in Ipperwash to enforce any Law & Order and the 15+ years of appeasement only lead to Caledonia, Grassy Narrows, Deseronto and Hagersville.

The untold thousands of victims created by this small band of Native Protesters would have gone unnoticed by the people of Ontario because Main Stream Media would have avoided covering the stories. This is why CaledoniaWakeUpCall was created.

For the Media, it didn’t want to be labeled as racist. We see this week how Mark on CHTV Live was called a racist because he believes that when crimes are committed people (any people) should go to jail.

Why did Fantino fail in his attempt to slander me? Why did Fantino fail to control the media and create endless B.S. propaganda about what was happening? The reasons are quite simple.

First, I present the Truth and therefore Fantino, McGuinty, Tory, etc., etc. were fighting to present lies to the public.

Second, I relied on human nature to take its course.

Fantino and the Politicians were putting their trust in the very people who were committing the crimes. They were hoping and maybe even praying that these people would show some degree of self-control, some degree of understanding that they cannot awaken the Canadian Public to the truth which is that they are out of control.

All we had to do was to wait until these occupations self-exploded into what we now see. The Native Occupiers were creating a movement across Canada that was based on criminal behaviour, violence and on the victimization of innocent residents. Such a movement could only end one way and that is in the complete lawlessness we now see.

In Turtle Island News last week we read that the Clan Mothers and Chiefs do not go onto DCE in Caledonia because they are afraid - welcome to the world of the residents.

It appeared okay by many Native leaders that the victims of these violent Land Claims were non-Native, but now that they are also afraid of them it appears to be a different story.

I personally cannot understand why Fantino would believe that any politician would be steadfast on anything. But it appears that he has hooked his future to McGuinty’s propaganda machine in an attempt to get McGuinty re-elected.

Does he really think with an election coming that McGuinty will fall on his own sword to save him? The writing is on the wall and Fantino has failed to enforce the law, failed to end Two Tier Justice and failed to close down CaledoniaWakeUpCall.

It wasn’t for the lack of trying - numerous press releases and statements in the media by Fantino to slander me, secret understandings with Haldimand County to get people not to listen to us, and even a lawsuit…

Sorry Fantino, you failed. You backed the criminals instead of the law abiding citizens of this province. You used slander and intimidation instead of Truth and Justice.

Fantino somehow believed that his rants, his character assassinations, his slander, his bullying, his strong arm tactics would have an affect on me. It was down right funny to watch him call in the London Riot Team on Jan. 20th to stop peaceful people from keeping themselves warm by a fire on Chris’ property. It was quite amazing to witness him hide out at Unity Road and peek around the corner of the window to see us outside confronting the Ontario Chief Bully.
Fantino was reduced to a joke which only caused him to self-explode when he sent out his email rant. Since then he is no where to be found.

Natives claim land in Norfolk County

The native occupation in Caledonia has taken an ominous new twist for residents of Norfolk.During a day-long occupation of a construction site in Hagersville yesterday, a native spokesman said Six Nations has extended its land claim to include half a mile on either side of the Hamilton Plank Road.

Hamilton Plank Road was the original name of Highway 6. When it was built in the early years of the 19th century, Hamilton Plank Road extended from Port Dover to Hamilton.”It gets interesting, doesn’t it?” said Six Nations protester Wesley Elliott.

Warriors target new site

HAGERSVILLE — “See you at the next construction site.” With a bandanna over his face, (EDIT: COWARD) the words from the “Mohawk Warrior” didn’t sound like they were meant to be a joke.

There may not be another construction site in Haldimand County for awhile since protestors here yesterday made it very clear if there is one they don’t approve of, you will see red Mohawk flags.

In other words it’s the Mohawk Warrior who is in charge down here. Just ask developer Dan Valentini. “Everything I have is in that land,” he said, as he agreed to send his construction crew home in exchange for protesters to leave.

To translate into taxpayers English what is really being said is “Mr. McGuinty break out the chequebook because you may have to buy another piece of land on behalf of Ontarians.” The whole thing is an outrage. Perhaps ask the premier about it at an Ottawa Senators Stanley Cup Final game where you may find him in the owner’s luxury box — probably not far from vote opportunistic Prime Minister Stephen Harper, who should be back after his latest photo op with the troops in Afghanistan while gas prices rise and land claims fester.

This whole thing is a mess, brought on but gutless leadership and equally as despicable acts of anarchy by some self-appointed native “representatives” — a few of whom were trying to pass themselves off as chiefs and elders when all they really were was acting like punks.

Occupation in Caledonia hurting Liberals

A short-lived aboriginal protest in Hagersville, Ont., on Wednesday prompted federal and Ontario officials to temporarily walk away from negotiations aimed at settling a 15-month occupation by Six Nations protesters in nearby Caledonia.

Opposition Leader John Tory said Ontario’s Liberal government should demand an end to the Caledonia occupation before negotiations with the Six Nations resume.

“I just find it interesting that in Hagersville, they walk away from the table when an occupation starts,” Tory said.

“But we have one in Caledonia that is affecting children, affecting neighbours, affecting businesses that’s been going on for 400 days, and they won’t insist that that come to an end or be phased out in order to continue the negotiations.”

Stop trains or Natives will: Chiefs

Canada’s native chiefs will pressure the national railways to close down for the Assembly of First Nations’ “day of action” on June 29, backing it up with a veiled threat they will probably face blockades from individual native bands if they refuse.

Indian Affairs Minister Jim Prentice responded by arguing that it is wrong for the AFN to place companies in the middle of a dispute with the government, and repeated his warning that blockades will only hurt the public support for their cause.

Chief Fontaine rejected that warning earlier in the day, even though he insisted that the AFN was not advocating violence or blockades. He argued that public support peaked during the 1990 Oka crisis, which saw the death of a provincial police officer and a tense three-month standoff between Mohawks and Canadian Forces soldiers.
