The Indians of Canada have had enough and are asking for and receiving support across the globe. They have watched too many of their children get killed by our government. The have watched too many commit suicide. A movement has begun. It is called Idle No More. From Coast to Coast to Coast, people are getting up off their arses and taking back their Nation, their personal responsibility.

In Canada, in the Federal system, the Provincial system, even in the local municipal government system, our elected representatives must show their vote publically. In this way they are sanctioned and punished if they don't vote the way they are told, or alternatively, awarded with secret benefits if they do vote "properly".

Every vote must be secret, every one. To occupy democracy means to have democracy. Democracy requires a secret ballot. Not just for you and me but for those who we elect too.

I trust the guy or gal we elect. At least 75% are going to do the right thing. I trust that if we don't achieve secrecy for them they will be coerced or punished for not doing the bidding of those who created the killing, death and destruction machine.

The required open and public vote of your elected representative is an offense as great as the dead children. At least America isn't a dictatorship  yet as it is in Canada with every majority government. Canada is no different than Hitlers Germany with Prime Minister Harper.  It is what has spawned the Idle No More Movement.   The people have had enough.

It is not going to be easy, there will be plenty of resistance, but it is time. There are far too many dead children, far too much disregard for decency. Idle No More!

Take back your streets, your community, your district, your state, your province, your territory, your country and the world will be a better place.

If you don't throw the TV set out, then at least throw out all the killing games and don't watch the killing channels. It is up to all of us to do it together.

Connect the dots. Do it for twenty innocent lives.
