In February 2006, the site of a residential development in Caledonia, Ontario, was occupied by protestors representing the Six Nations. The land, they claimed, rightfully belonged to their people. They have never left.
And Christie Blatchford has never let go of the story: a story so fraught with complications and sensitivities—with political explosiveness—that the Canadian media has too often found it easier to avert its gaze.
It is the story of innocent victims who have been abandoned, left helpless. It is the story of a government that has not governed and police who have not policed. It is the story of a community whose freedom and peace of mind have been sacrificed in order to maintain a toxic status quo and keep officials in the jobs they are refusing to do.
