Demand for Public Inquiry into Harriet Nahanee's sentencing

We, the Undersigned, endorse the following petition:
Demand for Public Inquiry into Harriet Nahanee's sentencing
Target: Gordon Campbell, Premier of BC, and Hon. Wally Oppal, Attorney General of BC
Sponsor: Eagleridge Coalition / Natives for Justice
Signatures: 457
Goal: 1,000
Deadline: Ongoing...

We, the undersigned, condemn BC Supreme Court Justice Brenda Brown's handling of contempt of court charges against 71 year old native Elder Harriet Nahanee, which resulted in a 14 day jail sentence on January 24, 2007. Respected Elder Nahanee filed an appeal, but died shortly after being released from Surrey Pre-Trial Services Centre. The public now demands that BC Attorney General Wally Oppal and BC Premier Gordon Campbell launch an immediate public inquiry into the Supreme Court of BC's treatment of Respected Elder Harriet Nahanee.

About

    Ts'iin, Welcome to the Spirit of Warrior Harriet Nahanee Site. This weblog is dedicated to Harriet’s Actions, the sacrifice she made for the future generations and the legacy she left us.

    We believe in carrying on Harriet’s legacy in the form of actions expressing dissent of colonization, injustice and oppression. It is the Olympics 2010 (VANOC) in conjunction with the KKKanadian state, and the KKKanadian and BC justice systems that are responsible for the death of Harriet Nahanee, the deepening of poverty and homelessness in Vancouver, specifically the Downtown Eastside, and the massive theft of Indigenous lands and the denial of Indigenous rights.

    There is only one way to stop the destruction and that is by fighting back. This site will help connect people and help you get information on updates, but we urge you to join in actions on the ground happening across on Coast Salish Territory and in BC.
