Over a 120 blockaders danced and rallied in the front yard of an indigenous family's home immediately adjacent to the Keystone XL pipeline easement. The toxic pipeline is being laid about 100 ft from their front door. Blockaders from Michigan reached out to the family to offer first-hand experiences of dealing with tar sands spills afterwards.
Over 100 Tar Sands Blockaders participate in a round dance lead by Coushatta organizer Ben Yahola in solidarity with Idle No More on land immediately adjacent to a KXL Pipeline construction site.
We arrived on the land, resided on by a family of Alamaba-Coushatta tribal members, at 5pm on January 4 to begin setting up for the dance. Workers were milling about at the end of their work day and immediately noticed our banners. Police showed up shortly thereafter, but we were not disturbed in our peaceful demonstration of solidarity with Idle No More, Hunger Striking Attawapiskat Chief Theresa Spence, and all affected by toxic tar sands exploitation.

CANADA, STOP LEECHING OFF US
MNN. Jan. 8, 2013. We subsidize every last thing in Canada. The meeting on January 11th
in Ottawa between Prime Minister Harper and his traitorous pet Indians
is not valid. Your puppet strings will be pulled tight. Your arms will
be permanently up in the air, palms up, and your knees will be under
your chin. You will be plied with money, liquor and female or male
companionship, filmed for future blackmail purposes. You “turn the other
cheek” Indians do not speak for us.

Harper has something on most of them. They’ve all been bribed and
sold their souls to the devil. Everyone in the Canadian system too.
Harper is screaming, “Shut up and play the corporate game”.
Canada is one of the world’s largest countries with a small
population. Half the exports are raw materials, minerals, fuel, metals,
ores, wood, pulp and paper, agriculture, fish, shellfish and hydro,
while they rape Mother Earth.

| Harper's corporate outfit |
The federal government usurped control over us; the natural
resources were turned over to the provinces; they provide transfer
payments to the feds. The province deals with the predatory
multinational corporations, who don’t have to speak with us. We do not
get any money from our resources. We can’t fight the multinational
corporations. We’re forced to accept our own money like crumbs.
Canada takes $9 billion in taxes and royalties from companies
mining our resources, a tiny fraction of the whole amount; $3.8 billion
from exports of hydro; 60% from harnessing our water; $1.2 trillion from
tar sand extraction for 35 years; $38.2 billion from forestry. [2006
figures].
Spending on Indigenous land and resource owners is $5.36 billion:
$7,200 per Indigenous compared to $14,900 per non-native person.
All Canada’s wealth is based on the value of our resources. This
theft has caused us incalculable suffering. Torture in jails, suicides,
forced confessions, capturing and fining our youth so they have a
lifetime criminal record, brutal persecution of our traditional people
and genociding our children.
We have a right to exist and resist. Large scale land and
resource theft needs to exterminate us. We will stop the brutal program
to erase us and our connection to our land. This is just the
beginning. We will take care of our Mother, protect our land, rivers,
lakes, forests and oceans because that is what she instructs us to do.
Our traitors will be given false promises and “death dealing”
trickery. We have been watching you stuff yourselves while keeping our
plates empty. That’s going to change. We will take our possessions and
distribute them fairly. Not another tree is going to be cut down.
Canada thinks they are immune to protests and economic reprisals.
Canada, get used to the idea that we are your landlords. What happens
when you don’t pay your rent? The sheriff will come and lock the door.
You won’t even have time to get your things. Any money we receive comes
from the Corporation of Canada, our tenants. Now they are demanding to
know where their landlord spends the rent money.
Countries all over the world disapprove of Canada’s brutality.
Warrior unity flags fly everywhere to support our resistance to the
New World Order.

| Protecting the children |
The time has come to use non-violence through a massive
international boycott involving Russia, Great Britain, France, Germany
and Japan to stop white domination.
Harper, the truth will bring you down. We are going to reclaim
our natural possessions. The Corporation of Canada has nothing to
negotiate, except to leave Great Turtle Island. And to give us its
shareholder list of those who have been murdering us. Especially the
100,000 children murdered by the clergy in the residential school
holocaust. Degenerate clergy, the gauntlet awaits you.
The band council offices are embassies of the Ottawa cartel.
These modern day barbarians are going to be impoverished. The good
times are over. Their opulence and power is approaching the sunset.
Keeping Canada white through white domination smacks of Naziism.
We will stop Bill C-45, the murder machine, from annihilating us. The
Canadian Reich is unsustainable, toxic, evil and bankrupt.
As Leonard Cohen said: “Everybody knows that the dice are
loaded. Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed. Everybody knows
that the war is over.”

Citizens of Canada, We are Anonymous.
Your country is in far deeper trouble than the government makes it out to be,
then what the media allows you to see.
This program will just touch on some of the major issues you as Canadians face.
This program will show how Harper deceived thousands.
How he has angered many, and has not done anything about it.
