Idle No More

By André Faust

On this last day of the year Members from Saint Mary’s First Nations (Fredericton) have left for Ottawa to join with chief Spence, who has now been on a 21+days hunger strike. Her hunger strike is a response to the Harpers Omnibus c-45. According to sources from within Saint Mary’s First Nations, chief Spence as of date seems to be in good health. The sacrifice that she is making is not only for the aboriginals but for all Canadians. The Impact of this bill will affect all Canadians and future generations.

The bus is expected to arrive sometimes tomorrow in the New Year. New information as it becomes available will be posted on this site.

We are calling for ALL border crossings to be shut down on January the 5th 2013 to show the government that we are willing to escalate this to a point where we shut down the country.

The reason Turtle Island Movement has called for a peaceful blockade of the borders in Canada is in solidarity of the idle no more movements happening all across Canada & America…currently the harper government is pushing bills through senate that effect not only the First Nations but also canadian citizens.

#IdleNoMore
#ChiefTheresaSpence

The general idea is to accomplish world wide attention to the injustices happening to the First Nations & citizens of Canada – while also effecting the canadian governments economy.

We humbly ask you to share the event & spread the word of our peaceful gathering.
