Caledonia The town That Law Forgot

[Argus]

Maybe but I doubt it. Regardless, the government MUST comply with the law

Law is not something you make up. To you, the Law is whatever you say it is, regardless of reality. And if you want to break a law, well that's okay too, because obviously that law doesn't count.

Whereas Canada is founded upon the principles that recognize the supremacy of God and the rule of law:

I don't make it up, nor do I apply it only where it suits me. To you murder is justified. It is obvious the law doesn't count to you....but then again you are psychotic and probably aren't fully aware of what you are thinking or saying...

[charter.rights]

More like you hope not.

I agree. Now if natives would also start complying with the law, there might actually be some progress.

The natives are in compliance with the law. They have an absolute right to stop development on their lands, and to require proof from the Crown of any claims they have made a surrender. It has never happened.

So when the police try to clear the site using an illegal injunction the only answer is to resist. That is perfectly lawful.

[charter.rights]

Yeah, it was. But honesty is not something to be expected of your sort.

Another sign of adolescents on the internet is how they brag about their imaginary prowess.

I'm curious Argus. What to you want to be when you grow up?

(I mean beside an impotent mail clerk...)

And smarts isn't something to be expected of your sort. As if I am responsible for your fragile and tender feelings. You're so senstive Argus.

I am not bragging, just pointing out fact.

I agree...

You speak as if you have some sort of intellectual prowess the rest of us don't all the time...

All I've seen is ego and hubris...Nothing that makes you an intellectual Leviathan,though...

A mail clerk working for the government makes about $40,000, which I'm guessing is considerably more than you get sifting through garbage along the highway for recyclable beer bottles, boy.

Another consistency is your elevation of your ignorant opinions as "fact".

Nah. I'm in the 6 figures crowd.

And BTW. I have a niece just out of university earning twice as much as your $40 peanuts. Seems to me you are an underachiever.

Yes, I elevate mine while burying yours. Fair trade.

Thank you for agreeing with me about how you and natives ignore the law by pretending that any law you don't like doesn't exist.

Oh yeah, of course. Pig ignorant, barely literate, and with the cutting edge thinking abilities of a twelve year old but you're rich, just like everyone else on the internet. LOL

Unless, of course, you're one of those people sucking the life blood out of native reserves by overbilling and not telling them about what you get.

Native chiefs and band counselors earn more than PM

So this is your CV. Hmmmmm. very interesting. But since we all knew you were a whack job beforehand there was no need to post your credentials......

Nope. I don't work for any Bands or any Governments. I am self-employed, sit on the boards of 2 financial institutions, and am a partner in a development company on top of all that. Money money money...I love what I do for a living and people just send me money....well...because I'm me....

But I don't need to say more. My dogs have more ambition than a two-bit underachieving mail clerk working for the government...ummm.....that would be you....

Oh and one more thing. I would put my $3/4 of a million 10 acre estate up against your cock roach infested apartment any day. For you the Royal Ottawa would be luxury accommodations. Take a holiday you DESERVE it

Would you be so kind as to let me know which financial institution's boards you claim to sit on. I might need to divest myself of any corporation that has such an idiot as a director.

I don't care what anybody says...

That's funny!!!!

I wonder what he, and they, will say to this:

Judge finds Six Nations’ land claim 'exceedingly weak'

In a judgment released late last week, Judge Harrison Arrell ordered protesters from Six Nations to stop blockading construction sites, cease threatening workers and told the reserve’s so-called development institute to quit demanding unauthorized fees and levies.

While the judge didn't outright describe the Haudenosaunee Development Institute's practice of demanding fees from developers as extortion, the language he used made it clear he believed a shakedown was just what was going on.

It was only with the Caledonia success behind them that Six Nations activists, arguably emboldened, moved on to sites in Brantford and employed the some of the same tactics.

These blockades were so frequent, the rule of law so threatened, the judge said, that "the economy of this small city is at risk... the tax base is at risk".

Then again, the article was written by that "racist" Christie Blatchford, so, no doubt, Charter will think she dreampt the whole thing up as part of her clandestine anti-Native plot.

Having mentioned how wonderful and honourable Blatchford is...I might just now take that back - I have noticed that she as a media person - who when in discussion with another now media person, John Tory...BOTH are corporate shrills that will say anything as long as satan sends them a cheque.

[AngusThermopyle]

BOTH are corporate shrills that will say anything as long as satan sends them a cheque.

As opposed to you who will say anything for no reason at all.

Nice to see, you're still trying to help educate some of the ignorance that is shamelessly rampant in our country. Keep it up!

They absolutely do. Through the legal system. Not through vigilantism. Harassing private citizens who had nothing to do with the location of development isn't appropriate. We're living in a society. They need to start acting like civilized members of said society. Not like barbarians. That might have sufficed a few hundred years ago. But it doesn't anymore.

Sure it does. You just happen to disagree with the premise.

Proprietary estoppel is a legal instrument that is invoked by blocking roads and preventing access to developments. It is a perfectly legal common law right for natives to "stop development on their lands and to require proof from the Crown of any claims they have made a surrender. It has never happened", as I said earlier.

Nope, terrorizing people and harrassing people aren't legal instruments. They need to start acting like civilized people. This isn't the head scalping days anymore.
