Support “Toad” This Wednesday Dec 12 - Stop the criminalization of land defenders.

Here’s the Forwarded Call Out:

Friends,

Come support Theresa “Toad” Jamieson - a Six Nations land defender - on Wednesday December 12th at 10am, at the Cayuga courthouse.

She is facing charges stemming from when anti-Native rights activist Gary McHale forced his way down the road at the reclamation site, Kanonhstaton, on February 18th, 2012. Watch this disgusting injustice here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJOEkBwtnYs

Parents, students and allies arrived at the Toronto office of Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada (AANDC) Thursday morning because Six Nations schools still aren’t receiving the necessary funding and supplies guaranteed under treaty agreements.

Under Article 91, Section 24 of the British North America Act of 1867, the federal government has education funding responsibilities.

“And that means all of us are affected,” said Steve Watson, retired staff member, Canadian Auto Workers Union. “Not just Six Nations people. Not just indigenous people.”

Teachers and parents are photocopying supplies because the curriculum ordered last spring still hasn’t arrived.
