It takes a very strong community to stand up against a nation , thank you for sharing. This is a piece of Canadian history that should NEVER be forgotten and every Canadian should learn about.
#705 Perdue why don’t you try to be part of the nation instead of standing up against the nation. It would be win-win situation.
@@அவானிஉயர்ந்தது because that nation was trying to build a golf course on their cemetery.
@Mauser 96 which treaties? the ones that were broken by the government?
These people suffered so much because of media propaganda and ignorance....I was raised with some of them. Never saw human beeings with such big hearts. Their role in the founding of this country is crucial. Can't believe that to this day they don't get the respect they deserve
They get plenty of handouts, special privileges and extra rights.
This has changed my opinion of Canada.
Respect existence or expect resistance✊
The contrast between how Canada treats Indigenous folks is not lost on us. Look at how the police supported the trucker convoy in Ottawa. Also when the Indigenous folks where protesting the railway because of the illegal pipeline on Indigenous land. People wanted the police, the trains and the truckers to runover the indigenous people. Canada this is not ancient history, this is in your life time. Your time.
It’s concerning because these indigenous people are the only folks advocating for everyone’s right to have clean, safe water and food. They’re proud to… kill themselves and their country by destroying all the woods and soil with pollution. It’s beyond me. Looking in at modern consumerist society is sickening. I’m glad to see it slowly coming to an end.
Lol wtf are you talking about? The truckers where treated much worse than any caribe protest in 20 years.
@@colinjohnston5734 Hahahaha a good one. Are there two moons on your planet. LOL
What a strong community they succesfully pushed the millitary out of there town not every community of people have that much of a strong will
This was one of the hardest videos I've ever seen. I feel sorry for the ones throwing rocks to have that much hatred. God bless the native people, God bless you
Niá:wen (thank you) for making this film.
I’m from Kahnawake and I wasn’t born before the 90s but if anything happens to my town ever again I promise you, you will se me at the frontlines. Nie:wen for reading this (thank you)

Ther is no reset in this game lil brutha
@bookreaderson lol
You're not alone ✊👊
If those people had been tossing rocks at police cars it would have been a difference story
Stand tall , stand brave and do your best to never let your history be lost to the sands of time and never for get that those in power have use that power to run over people at times in the name of the good for the people or in the name of a god.
Bless all of you and your way of life

It’s real sickening to see how they treated our people leaving the reserves. Saying “if you don’t want us on your land dont come on ours” but it wasn’t theirs. The land is ours and will always be ours. Not theirs. So sickening the way the treated our people and continue to. Those evacuating were children and elders. Why would they have weapons. And none of these things would have happened if the government would just have resolved this immediately.
Oka and surrounding area was a known smugglers route
The land was never ours, it just was. We can't keep up this myth that Natives owned the continent before colonization. We lived here and called this land home, but it belonged to no one.
I've always been proud to be a Canadian but our treatment of Native Canadians is an embarrassment to our government and to the people of our country. They have given us everything and we should be ashamed at the ruthless way we have treated them throughout our history. i found this video heartbreaking.
They aren't native Canadians or native American they're just natives of this land. We white people gave the name Canada and North America not them,,,,,, least we all can do is give them proper labeling. The natives of this and should be given the key to this land.
Thank you for taking accountability, don't see it often! I try for the white English muppets too.
Stay safe, educate, and don't hate.

You shouldn’t be proud to be Canadian unless your Anglo Saxon, not my fucking country I’m being occupied by a foreign empire.
We will never forget we will always remember 💯
Untill us and them become we things will never change
well said

The mob mentality can truly be a terrifying.. and even Evil thing. There's a saying.. " A person is reasonable.. logical.. empathetic and humane. --- People are panicky, unpredictable, violent and crazy forces."
We will never forget we will always remember no pipelines without consent back ur police off security or war respect that
Shouldn't encroach upon sacred land it's the offspring who have to suffer, (karma) should honour your treaties & teach your kid's history so you all could get on instead of all the hatred & racism which isn't healthy for any country & just puts your country & people in a bad picture instead of showing the world what a beautiful country & people you are! ☘❤✌
2021 the resistance continues nothern B.C Canada. Shame on the provincial and federal government sending armed troops to unarmed land protectors.
still the same in Canada
Since contact
Why do people always refer to them as "the indians" they are PEOPLE!!! The term the indians just encourage and continue an Us v.s. Them attitude that has existed for 500 years!!! People need to look at the issue as if it were YOUR family, stop the separation!!!
I understand and agree - I think the only race we should mention is the Human Race.
But, the "Indians" themselves want to be separated from the "others" because that is the basis of all their frustrations and government support. Without the special status, there is no recognition.
Those people should be identified to see where they are now. Show Canada who they are.

It's bad that this has to happen to community's. Here we are almost 30 years later an were still having issues like this all over North America,and the world. I feel thier will be No end to this viscous cycle. Even when theirs only one race of Grey men left their will be indifference between people and lands till humans leave this world or perish,there will be no end to the suffering of one or the other.
where were the Chiefs of Canada
These people throwing rocks are heartless they are taking there frustrations on the wrong people the government is who they should be angry at.
😢
Only in Quebec
That's a pretty ignorant comment 😒 You live in denial or what?

Truth crushed to earth 🌍 will rise again!
Why did Québécois bootlick english Canada so hard

Listen I sympathize with the golf course aspect but shutting down bridges people rely on to get to work and kids to school was out of bounds.
Colonization was out of bounds, breaking treaty's is out of bounds, using military against civilians is out of bounds. What would the oppressors know about suffering.
This is extremely biased. smh.
What hapenned was totally not okay, but I understand why the Canadian public was so frustrated and resorted to violent protest. Also, tackling soldiers and injuring several of them with rocks DEFINETLY counts as violence. There are two sides to this story and only one is explored here.
Exquizitine Dillwad because this is the right side
I don't know if you still think this bc comment is kind of old but my father was in Oka when this happened and it was very traumatic for my family. I don't understand why anyone would think it's okay for Quebec to "resort to violent protest" because they've only been inconvenienced for a couple months. Imagine how much anger resides in the Mohawk communities and everyone just tells them to "get over it." They threw rocks, trying to kill the women, children, and elders trying to flee the danger of the canadian army. There's no "other side" when they publicly hung and burned a mannequin dressed in Mohawk regalia, chanting "Savages!"
We were defending out ancestors and our land from construction that would've destroyed a sacred grave site. It didn't have to go this far if only Quebec had sat down with the Mohawk and reached a peaceful agreement to stop the construction.
@@michaele4171 True fact Michael
@@michaele4171 They were NOT "trying to kill" anyone, idiot.
I'll never defend violence but I think theres a lesson here. Ok yes the golf course was wrong but when you take up guns and close bridges and shoot at people you have to recognize there's another side yo yours and they are going to be angry.
