Again, I think too little awareness of this is a danger. The
Mohawks fought spectacularly well in this very trying confrontation.
The situation in Kahnawake has been bad for a long time now.
We saw how brutal and arbitrary both police and justice officials
were with respect to the situation last summer right out in the
open - in front of the international news media and in spite of
public criticism from other Canadians. Let's not forget what is
most certainly continuing in that community now, though less well
publicized. These are people who need support. And this is a
police force that could use some exposure.
