–– What is the tie with the “Congress of Aboriginal People”?
MNN. Feb. 16, 2008. In the land of free speech, Robert Lovelace gets a few days in jail for protesting against uranium mining.

Paula Sherman and Lovelace, co-chiefs of the Ardoch “Algonquin” First Nation, were sentenced to six months in jail by Justice Douglas Cunningham in a Kingston, Ontario court Friday for contempt of court. Sherman was fined $15,000 and Lovelace $25,000. [They are making big money as “negotiators” for land that is not theirs and that is non-negotiable.] We don’t know what happened to the other five accused. Lovelace is going to spend a few days in
Both admitted their involvement in protests on the property near Sharbot Lake, Ontario, about 60 kilometers north of Kingston. Two court injunctions have given access to Frontenac Ventures Corp. to start test drilling for uranium next week. The land in question, south of the Ottawa River, is Mohawk land. The Algonquin protesters argued the site is on their land and they fear that uranium drilling will lead to environmental contamination. This is true. No conscientious person can object to their efforts to defend the environment.
Chief Doreen Davis of Shaabot Obaadjiwan and Paula “I-wanna-go-home” Sherman personally promised to stop protesting to avoid going to jail. Once again, we can only sarcastically declare “long live free speech in
The incarceration will give Lovelace a few days of quiet time so that his treacherous “handlers” can continue their treasonous plans. The "handlers" use "posers" like him to act like "Indians". [
We still believe that Lovelace could be part of the fraud to change the Haudenosaunee land regime so that
It was reported in the Frontenac News last spring that Doreen Davis was discussing a deal to work with Frontenac Ad’Ventures on uranium mining at
According to colonial foreign rules Frontenac Ventures has to do a bit of drilling to get some samples of uranium ore so they can secure a claim to our land, with the help of the notoriously unsinkable shyster, Robert Potts, of Bre-X fame. Then they can raise money on the stock exchange to defraud the unknowing public. Our land and resources will be the collateral they will use to guarantee their project and to raise the cash. This time they might have real ore samples but they won’t have a legal claim to our land.
The uranium market is presently shaky. Frontenac Ventures needs samples by March 2008 or so. If the samples are “good enough”, they can raise money on the
Haudenosaunee law, international law and even Canadian law. They know they have violated all of these. [Read “Mohawk Manifesto” on MNN website].
Another player that could be part of this scam is the “Congress of aboriginal People” CAP, an interest group that does not represent indigenous people. It is a nationally incorporated colonial company that apparently just got $10 million from
Patrick “Fabio Wannabe” Brazeau is the 33-year old poster-boy Chairman of this “rags to riches” company. As National Chief, with his military background, he is exorbitantly paid $100,000 a year plus all travel and expenses. [
Some of the lavishly-paid people in CAP with suspect titles are: Jerry Peltier as“CAP National AHRDA Manager”; Brendan Sheppard as “National Vice-Chief”; Kim Beaudin as President of “Environment Species at Risk” and “Urban and Aboriginal Affairs Coalitions of Saskatchewan Inc.”;
Carl Dube as head of “Alliance Autochtone du Quebec Inc.”; and Brad Maggrah as President of “
CAP recently laid claim to all “undeveloped Crown land” to try to keep “crown lands” as “crown lands”. CAP has inferred that it wants to “cost-share” with
This subterfuge was put in place around the early 1980’s when Prime Minister Brian Mulroney pushed through the Free Trade Agreement and then Prime Minister Jean Chretien followed through with NAFTA.
On CAP’s website they say they have no individual members, just boards of “talking heads”. Is this another scheme where someone like “history buff”, Joan “The-Creator-of-Paper-Indians” Holmes registers CAP members? At the same time the true membership list will be hidden or destroyed, as happened at
At the bottom of their website is the notation, “This site is brought to you by the Canadian government”, with a picture of the Canadian flag on the bottom right of their home page.
Their programs and services are for their corporate buddies, not for any indigenous peoples. Each affiliate is a provincially or territorially incorporated organization. In 1971 it was known as the “Native Council of
It will try to “kidnap” those who are not represented by another government puppet, the Assembly of First Nations AFN, which purportedly represents the band councils. These too are colonial functionaries of
any direct representative capacity. In other words, no indigenous person can contact anyone in either organization who is expressly responsible to them. In fact, most Indigenous people haven’t even heard of them.
The real Indigenous people are not “Indians” or “aboriginals”. Technicians like Joan Holmes could not only create “instant” Indians, but could decide that the real Indians are not Indians. The list they compile could eventually outnumber the real Indigenous peoples and end up claiming to make all decisions for all Indigenous, Inuit and Metis. It’s a long term scheme that’s meant to get rid of us, our title and our roots to our land. Thus, the “Indian problem” will be gone, they think! The Canadian government has long waited for this day. The Australian government just apologized for doing this to the Aborigines.
CAP gets it funding from: Canadian Heritage, HRDC, Indian Affairs, Environment Canada, Health Canada, Office of the Federal Interlocutor, Statistics Canada, Natural Resources Canada and Nuclear Waste Management Organization [which stores nuclear waste]. Bingo! Why would there be a nuclear waste management organization funding a so-called “Indigenous representative” body? Why? Why? Why? It’s
like fish in the moonlight. It looks beautiful, but it stinks!
Their spending in 2007 is $616,000 for salaries and benefits; travel, accommodation and meetings of $413,000; and general assembly and board meetings of $212,000. Under “expenses” they have a “Consolidated “Revenue” Account” for $814,000??
We think that some of the minds behind this “Un-Algonquin” caper go far back. Ron “Twistory” McGuire, formerly of “Treaty & Historic Research” at Indian Affairs, [613-479-2688] is a neighbor to Ardoch “Algonquin” Chief Harold “You-Mohawks-are-not-welcome-here” Perry [613-479-5534]. Ron is also the mayor of North Frontenac which includes
Deputy Mayor of
The relationship between CAP and Lovelace goes back a ways. Lovelace made a bid for a share of the Casino Rama profits as an “interested party”! It went to the Supreme Court of

non-Native people and our possessions. Keep an eye on how they make out. When they come back into society they might just go and dig up their stash and start up somewhere else. Gangsterism, all the way!
