Arrests at Gidumt'en Checkpoint

Arrests at Gidumt'en Checkpoint, RCMP Raid Anticipated at Unist'ot'en Camp

January 7, 2019, at approximately 2:51pm, RCMP and military forcefully breached a peaceful checkpoint on unceded Wet'suwet'en territory. Indigenous people were ripped from their homes by militarized police. There were at least 12 confirmed arrests, including an elder, and Wet'suwet'en hereditary chiefs were blocked from their own territories. Gidumt'en Clan spokesperson Molly Wickham was arrested on her land. She, along with other arrestees, will not be released. They are being brought to Prince George to stand before a Justice of the Peace. ***Arrest count according to eye witness accounts… exact numbers of arrests are still being confirmed***

The creation of the Gidumt'en Checkpoint was announced in the Wet'suwet'en feast hall, with the support of all chiefs present. Under 'Anuc niwh'it'en (Wet'suwet'en law) all five clans of the Wet'suwet'en have unanimously opposed all pipeline proposals.

Article 10 of the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples clearly states "Indigenous peoples shall not be forcibly removed from their land or territories." Any removal of Wet'suwet'en peoples by the RCMP, or any other authoritarian forces, has directly violated UNDRIP and the Trudeau government's promise to implement UNDRIP.

The RCMP have now installed a roadblock on the Wedzin Kwa (Morice River) Road, through Gidumt'en territory and the only access road to Unist'ot'en Camp, effectively cutting off communications, media, and supplies to those living there, including clients of the Healing Center.

Unist'ot'en Dark House member, Freda Huson said, "I am here in my home, on my land. I am not a criminal for protecting my most critical infrastructure which is my berries, my medicine, my water, my right to teach future Unist'ot'en generations how to live in right relationship with the land. Without water, no human will survive and these projects like TransCanada's Coastal Gaslink threatens the water. We are the land, the land is us."

At the time of this publication, the Unist'ot'en Camp is on high alert for a similar violent invasion of their checkpoint. The world is watching.

Urgent Action -- Transfer Support for Leonard Peltier

Dear Friends and supporters,

At our legal visit yesterday, Leonard told us that his case manager had submitted his request for a transfer on Wed, 1-2-19. He was cautiously excited and felt his transfer could happen within a few months BUT he didn't rule out the fact that his transfer might have to be fought in the courts.

We put together this information for you to send letters of support for Leonard's transfer. There are suggested letters, as well as points of information should you care to write your own letter.

Thank you for your support and if you get a return reply we would appreciate it if you would share it with us.

Sincerely,
ILPDC Board and National Office

RE: LEONARD PELTIER REGISTER NUMBER 89637-132

To whom it may concern:

Leonard Peltier #89637-132 has requested a transfer from the facility at Coleman, Florida to the facility at Oxford, WI. I am writing to support Peltier's transfer.

The reasons for transferring Peltier to Oxford include:

▪	Oxford is approximately 1,300 miles closer to Peltier's home and family.

▪	Oxford is closer to the Native communities related to Peltier.

▪	Peltier has multiple medical issues some extreme and potentially life threatening.

▪	Oxford is in proximity to the Mayo Clinic and Federal Medical Clinic in Rochester.

Transfer from Coleman to Oxford is therefore consistent with the spirit and intent of BOP policy and will serve to allow more family visitation and improve medical services to Peltier. Therefore, the transfer should be permitted.

Sincerely,

▪	Dear Madam/Sir;

I am writing to express my support for the transfer of Mr. Leonard Peltier 89637-132 to FCI Oxford WIS. Mr. Peltier is approaching his 75th birthday and had done over 44 years in Federal Custody. It is time that he be assigned a Federal facility closer to his family and an expert medical facility, like the Mayo Clinic.

The Oxford Facility is within a day's drive for Mr. Peltier's family in MN & ND and only 2 ½ hours from the Mayo clinic, which will provide the best health care necessary for the elder Mr. Leonard Peltier.

Thank you for considering Mr. Peltier's request for a transfer to FCI in Oxford.

Sincerely,
