Lies and Myths Fueling the Actions of the "Land Defenders" in Caledonia

 It appears that the "Land Defenders" creating turmoil and chaos in Caledonia, Ontario must be operating out of malice and ignorance using lies and myths to justify their actions.  What follows are the four main topics that need to be understood in order to sift fact from fiction, lie from the truth.

1)  Claim of Unceded (Unsurrendered) Land in Haldimand County, see here.

2)  Assertion that the Six Nations are a Sovereign People, see here.

3) Demand that All Developers Go Through a Process of Consultation and Accommodation, see here

4)  Delusion that there is a Treaty Governing the Relations Between the Crown and Six Nations, see here.

This is the tip of the iceberg, but contains what are likely the most important misconceptions.
