About your video called "Mohawk Grandmother Challenges Border Jurisdiction"
My concerns intensify with every passing injustice being carried out here in Canada. From indigenous rights to our basic human rights, we all face a collaboration of bureaucracies controlled by a host of political appointees who appear to be clinically delirious in their pursuit of wealth and power.

I applaud the dilligent efforts of Katenies and others, if only to put their challenge in writing for the record of our courts. Beyond that, the excercise serves no practical purpose, and even then, records have been destroyed, before. For example --

The fundamental element of any democratic society, rests in the hands of the administration of justice, constantly being seen to be applied, honourably, regardless of religeous, ethnic, national, or gender beliefs. This is to great a responsiblilty to be shouldered by just one, or even three or five individuals, never mind they're all annointed to their esteemed positions through politically appointment.

Democracy begins with the administration of justice, carried out by selecting juries from our vast pool of citizen resources, particularily our elders who possess the ecclectic wisdom, temperance and deeper understanding, acquired through their cumulative years of experiences. Most importantly, juries reduce the risk of a broadening histor-ical pattern of partisan outcomes, growing more and more predictable by the patterns of tactics used in the obstruction and suppression of all those who pursue genuine justice and the protection of our rights, "equally, before and under the law" -- whether red, white, black, or blue, Mennonite, Muslim, Mandarin, man, woman, or child. Did I miss anyone?

Yours very truly,

David Thomson

I am so excited to see that you are going to New Orleans! I will be checking back to see what you report. The SPP is an important agreement for the entire continent, and I commend you and others like you for bringing media attention to this much needed issue...
