The Olympic torch was confronted by Secwepemc and their supporters in the
Secwepemc Nation, in the invader (settler) town of Chase, so-called
british kkkolumbia, KKKanada. With the message "Secwepemc Say No
Olympics" and "Olympic Torch Not Welcome in Secwepemc Nation"
Secwepemc have a long standing fight with the government of KKKanada and
british kkkolumbia because of the fight for Secwepemc Land and Freedom.
Secwepemc have never signed treaties or they have never ceded or
surrendered their Secwepemc Nation. Secwepemc say NO to the BC treaty
process, the modern day treaty wants get rid of the Native Peoples and
take control of the last remaining lands and water (so-called resources)
from their Territory.
Historic Dispute with Olympics
Secwepemc Land and Freedom Fighters travelled to Europe in 2002 to hand
deliver a formal submission to the International Olympic Committee and let
the IOC and the World know that the Olympics is not welcome here in so-
called KKKanada, because of the long standing Indigenous land dispute and
continued violations of Indigenous and Human Rights. KKKanada does not
permission to be here and is currently illegally occupying Indigenous
Nations.
Where ever the Olympics sets foot they wage war on the Earth and the
Indigenous Peoples. No Olympics On Native Land.
Native Youth Movement Says:
The Olympics and KKKanada is using it's global spotlight to market our
Indigenous Territories for sale, but we want the World to know "OUR LANDS
ARE NOT FOR SALE." KKKanada is here illegally and "This is all Native
Land". This is simply not just another "issue", We are fighting for our
Freedom to continue to exist and live as true Secwepemc on our Lands
without any foreign invader occupation on our Lands. Major corporate
sponsors like Coca-cola and RBC (Royal Bank of Canada) are destroying
Indigenous Territories all over the World, including the Tar Sands (the
most
destructive project in the history of humanity). We are now in the IV
World War, the war against the Earth itself.
We stand in solidarity with all Indigenous Peoples fighting for their
Lands and Freedom Worldwide.
Defend the Earth. No Olympics on Native Land. No Trans Canada Hwy
expansion through Secwepemc Nation. No CP Rail expansion through
Secwepemc Nation.
Shut Down the Tar Sands. Solidarity with the Zapatista. Solidarity with
the Mapuche. Get the Shell Out of Sacred Headwaters -Tahltan Nation.
