Open Letter to the Houston Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) detatchment,MP Taylor Bachrach, MLA John Rustad, Dwayne McDonald, Deputy Commissioner Of the RCMP, Marco Mendicino, Minister of Public Safety, BC RCMP E Division, Community Industry Response Group (CIRG) Miss Sgt Charney
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police ( RCMP) have NO jurisdiction on wetsuweten territory. The pipeline industry&government entities have NO authority to use taxpayer $ to protect a foreign project & harass wetsuweten. My late father is a late ww2 vet& wetsuweten hereditary chief witness for delguumeaux. Im the granddaughter of 2 wetsuweten hereditary chiefs, whose wives also had hereditary names, jus saying,in case the rcmp question my roots � ( BTW Molly&Jen are my lwetsuweten cousins- granddaughters of the late Satsun Paddy Issac)
CIRG rcmp takes pride in acting like peasants bowing down to industry for retirement $. The RCMP:
* Hauled our ancestors to govt reservations& destroyed their homes,with the indian agents help.
*They then arrested them for leaving the reservation
*Until 1951 arrested our ancestors for having govt banned potlatches- our self governance( trying to weaken us- hello,we survived, we're strong)
* Arrested our ancestors for going into licensed establishments ( incl restaurants) until June 1950
* Forcefully took our ancestors to residential schools&foster homes
*Have been implicated in deaths of natives (My cousin was teenager who died in the hands of rcmp)
*FAIL to solve missing & murdered native women (hmmm..?) They should do their jobs of solving real crimes not protecting industry
*Fail to heed the United Nations call of human rights violations
*Have NO professional regulatory body to be held accountable - some members can be crackheads for all we know. A professional entails training &accountability to a regulatory body & so the rcmp wont act like THAT to earn up to $100 /hr, allegedly what the rcmp gets to harass our people. As professionals, at their late stage in life, they would earn more with a better legacy if they were professionals. Their actions are shameless
*Have conditional regard only to compliant obedient wetsuweten
*Have called our women squaws, laughed& threatened them with chainsaws, assault weapons, & canines.( Charney, recognizable no badge while destroying wetsuweten property is evident with a creepy grin & alopecia) Are the rcmp afraid of unarmed wetsuweten women? Is a firearm the only validation of masculinity?
*Question wetsuweten people's existence on OUR LAND defeating delguumeaux which is recognized by YOUR GOVT. Many chiefs have the right to ask the rcmp to leave instead, the rcmp are questioning them.Backwards! Our hereditary system& self governance will prevail even with the flaws manifested by this project.
*Accused wetsuweten of destroying cgl equipment (obviously a set up- for insurance purposes or a smear campaign- how can wetsuweten women go through the tough sgt rcmp & cgl security to destroy heavy equipment. Read THAT again)
*Struck a wetsuweten protester with a cruiser (?Your craze for upto $100/hr is out of hand- shame on you)
*Denied an elder of her medication?Im an RN of 30yrs in good standing in 2 provinces &4 states,whitemans beloved taxpayer, I say with absolute conviction many rcmp are sadistic, unprofessional enemies
*Destroyed wetsuweten property- countless videos of aforementioned sgt's abuse. Use the money you vehemently chase to go back to where your criminal ancestors were sent from
* AND Why is a former female employee suing cgl for sexual battery that happened at the camp Where were the RCMP when THAT happened..? Taking food/water?
The rcmp will leave when asked by industry, not before,as we ask. God Willing, we'll:
- *Train our wetsuweten to apply the laws. An example is the Kahnawake peacekeepers who uphold the people NOT government- but the laws of the haudensaunee. Only we can truly understand one another- the rcmp only knows the indian act
- We have the job of healing broken families resulting from this final assault. Our hereditary system WILL prevail giving us direction cleaning this mess
- Continue to campaign for the rcmp to be defunded. These are my opinions, Im exercising my right as a wetsuweten woman & Section 2 of your Governments Charter of Rights. I will sustain backlash, but these are my opinions. I cannot sit back & say nothing. Learn from us with voices
