MNN Six Nations. Did former PM Mulroney advise Harper on "protests and occupations"
SAGE
ADVICE ON “INDIGENOUS PROTESTS AND OCCUPATIONS” FROM FORMER PRIME MINISTER
BRIAN MULRONEY TO CURRENT PRIME MINISTER STEPHEN HARPER.
MNN. April 21,
2006. On Thursday, April 20th, Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper met with
former Prime Minister, Brian Mulroney in Montreal. Did they talk about the Six
Nations crisis and how to end it? We think they might have. Mulroney’s “been
there, done that”.
Did Mulroney tell Harper, “First, you gotta
make those Indians look bad. Hire some top public relations firms and put 3 negative
stories out for every positive one that goes out. Tell them the Indians are breaking
the law. Keep the civil issues out of court. They have too many valid papers and
good argument. Concentrate on laying criminal charges wherever and however you
can.
“Confuse the public about the facts of the land issues. Say they
have no real evidence. Allude constantly to the fact that they ‘might’
have weapons and criminal records. Remember, the public won’t read the word
“might”, they’ll just read the words “weapons” and “criminal”,
which will scare them and keep them on our side. This is now you manufacture the
negative images so the public sees the Indians as the bad guys. Say you are “defending
law and order” {while you are evicting them from their legal property or
stealing their resources). Never mind that they might only have 2 by 4’s,
bats or a bag of stones. Do not mention the millions of dollars you are spending
to equip your police with M-16's, tasers, pepper spay, silencers and the latest
in ultra high tech weaponry.
“Announce that negotiations were planned
and that you want to solve the crisis peacefully. Don’t mention that the
People themselves have been shut out of negotiations. You will only deal with
representatives and negotiators who are on your payroll. Pay off the press so
they don’t report any of the “wrong” opinions that might bring
out the truth. Distract public attention by announcing that you will go on a tour
of reserves to find out what the people need. Support a known adversary of Indians
like Maurice Vellacott as chair for the Commons Committee on Aboriginal Affairs
and Northern Development. This man spoke up for the Saskatoon police officers
who took the law into their own hands and abandoned native youth on the notorious
‘starlight” tours leaving to freeze to death.
“Announce
your astonishment that the protesters won’t leave peacefully. Then surround
them, point guns at them and do everything you can to scare them. Forget about
constitutional mobility rights. Stop Canadian citizens who support the protesters
from entering or leaving Six Nations territory. If the Six Nations people keep
resisting our invasion, some of them and even our cops might get killed or hurt.
Don’t forget, there will be unarmed men, women and children there. Remember
that Indian Affairs policy has been to absorb the Indians into our “body
politic” whether they want to be Canadians or not. Your goal is to “clean
it up” to allow American companies to make a mint by squatting on Indian
land and turning Canadians into mortgage slaves. Don’t’ forget Canada’s
economy has historically depended on clear cutting, mining, water diversions and
generally despoiling the land. The next time the Indians resist the government,
you’ll know what to do. Set it up so there is no resistance. You don’t
want another ‘Oka’ [the 1990 confrontation between the Mohawks and Quebec/Canada
which brought in the police, the RCMP and then the army just like what’s
happening at Six Nations right now).
“An Indian occupation doesn’t
have to have many people. All they want to do is to make a stand on a principle,
like land title and resource rights. Tell them, “You’ve made your point.
Now go home”. We use this line a lot. Ignore the fact that there are no leaders.
Six Nations people, including our puppet government, agree that we are wrong.
We want to know and see who the main leaders and resisters are. Yes, we need a
target, someone to shoot at. Don’t forget we need to build up our military
so we can support international American hegemony in the Middle East and elsewhere.
Don’t forget, we got elected because of the support of American companies.
Don’t bite the hands that feed us. Keep saying, “No one will get hurt”,
if they do as they’re told. Let the main resisters know that the cops have
every intention of taking them out. Mind you, the cops don’t want to do the
killing of a resister. Put native cops on the front line. Talk about native factionalism
all the time. Train the cops to beat Indian prisoners so it doesn’t leave
bruises. They’ll die early of their injuries. That’s how we got rid
of Lasagna of the Oka crisis. It’s dirty work but someone has to do it. Bush
and his illegal US administration will support us. They want our resources. The
cops don’t really care if they lose one of their own. Does anyone remember
Marcel LeMay who was killed at Oka? If a cop gets killed by “friendly fire”
pretend it was the “Injuns what done it”.
“What happens
if the Indians take some of our cops as prisoners and they find out they’ve
been duped? You have to say it’s the Stockholm Syndrome and he’s gone
crazy. He probably will be treated well by them. This might be a good time to
run a feature on old missionary fables. Be wary of him getting an education on
Indian matters while he’s on salary. They might want to exchange him for
some of their people we’ve taken. What they’re after is to carry out
the original and legal nation-to-nation relationship that was worked out between
us so long ago. We have to avoid that at all cost.
Then Stephen Harper
downed his 6th beer and left Westmount for Ottawa to instruct his field officers
on his ongoing battle with the Six Nations. Eeks! I woke up from this nightmare
in a cold sweat.
