About Murder by Decree
Murder by Decree is an #uncensored #record of the planned #extermination of #IndigenousChildren in #Canada’s murderous Indian #ResidentialSchools. It is issued as a corrective #CounterReport to the miscarriage of #justice by Church and State known as the “Truth and Reconciliation Commission” #TRC. Based on eyewitness #testimonies and #archival #documentation deliberately suppressed or ignored by the TRC, Murder by Decree proves that the #genocide of #IndigenousPeople began as a religion-led campaign and continues to be a deliberate governmental policy in Canada. This Counter Report reveals these startling facts: – Over half of Indian residential school children began dying the very first year these church-run facilities were opened – This huge mortality rate continued unabated for over a half century because of deliberate practices of germ warfare according to a prescribed monthly “death quota” – Evidence of these crimes and their intentional nature has been continually destroyed by the RCMP and the #Catholic, #Anglican and #UnitedChurch since at least 1960 – The same genocide continues today, is aimed at indigenous women and children, and is driven by foreign corporate interests hungry for #NativeLands and resources Murder by Decree is issued by The International Tribunal for the Disappeared of Canada (ITDC), an international #coalition of #jurists and #HumanRights groups. The ITDC was formed in December, 2015 to investigate the disappearance of people in Canada, prosecute those responsible and prevent a further #whitewash by Canada of its #CrimesAgainstHumanity. This report is an answer to these #crimes and an urgent summons to the world and to all #Canadians to live no longer under #genocidal #regimes.

( #OneidaNation of the Thames, a #FirstNation just south of #LondonON that has been on a #BoilWaterAdvisory since 2019, has #secured $43 million in #FederalFunding to bring treated #DrinkingWater to the community.
The connection to the #LakeHuron Primary #Water System will supply #PotableWater to more than 500 homes & public buildings to the community, which is home to nearly 2,200 residents.

(We are at a #CriticalPoint in time. #Canadian #courts are finally starting to #recognize #IndigenousLaws & #Indigenous peoples are remembering the #SpiritualLaws we were once forced to forget.
It can be #overwhelming — even for Indigenous #legal #professionals — to understand the weight that our spiritual laws & #responsibilities carry unless we are trained by #MedicinePeople & #connected to our #ancestral way of thinking.) -
