Resolution

Whereas James Douglas Louie, Certificate of Indian Status, Band Number
5570025701 is a descendent of the STL'ATL'IMX Nation, a distinct people
who, from time immemorial, have shared the same language, culture customs
and history.

And Whereas James Douglas Louie, Certificate of Indian Status, Band Number
5570025701 declares that he lives within the domain of the
STL'ATL'IMX  Nation which has occupied, and exercised sovereignty over its
lands and resources for the collective benefit and freedom of its citizens
from time immemorial.

And Whereas James Douglas Louie, Certificate of Indian Status, Band Number
5570025701 declares that, as a citizen of the STL'ATL'IMX Nation, he
subscribes to his nation's laws, values and traditional systems of
government to the exclusion of all other Jurisdictions which seek to impose
alien, and assimilative Regimes.

And Whereas James Douglas Louie, Certificate of Indian Status, Band Number
5570025701 has suffered the Indignities, Oppression, Dispossession, and
Deprivations of Colonial Racism and Rule which have denied him his Rights
and Freedoms as a human being and his identity as a STL'ATL'IMX citizen.

Then be it known to all othre Governments, authorities and commercial
interests.



That the signatures to this Resolution support James Douglas Louie,
Certificate of Indian Status, Band Number 5570025701, Declaration, and
furthermore do Hold and Declare that as citizens of the STL'ATL'IMX Nation,
we shall oppose, reject and resist all efforts of the Federal and
Provincial Governments to:

1.      Extinguish our Title to our Traditional Lands and Resources in
exchange for money and small "fee simple" Allotments, a formula which was
attempted in the U.S.A. and made many Aboriginal Nations landless when
allotments were taken by money lenders for unpaid loans.

2.      Impose on our Nation without our consent a "Governance Act" and
related statutes such as a "Land Management Act" and a "Financial
Institutions Act", the effect of these laws is to destroy our claim to
nationhood, to redefine us as an ethnic minority and our community as a
municipality, to make us subject to property and income taxes and to bring
us under Provincial rule.

3.      Deceive our citizens and the general public by broadcasting a
pretend consultation process even though the Minister of Indian Affairs has
already announced that his Legislative initiatives are Non-optional and are
being implemented.

The undersigned moreover do hold and declare that:

1.      To the present day, the STL'ATL'IMX Nation has had to deal with
Federal policies whose effect is genocidal and unlawful under the terms of
the "International Convention for the Prevention and Punishment of the
crime of Genocide".

2.      In addition, Canada is in Breach of the Royal Proclamation of 1763,
which remains an integral part of Canada's Supreme Law:  The Constitution
acts, 1867 and 1982; that is:

3.      The Proclamation acknowledged and affirmed that the relationship
between Aboriginal Peoples and the British Crown was and would remain
"Nation to Nation"; a relationship which Canada is actively seeking to
dismantle in favor of Provincial Jurisdiction.

4.      The same Proclamation made it unlawful for Colonial Governments and
their successors to engage in "Great Frauds and Abuses"; a crime for which
Canada was and remains guilty.

5.      The same Proclamation also made it unlawful for Colonial
Governments and their successors to interfere in the internal affairs of
Aboriginal Nations, an edict which has been consistently ignored by Canada
and is the cause of great damage to the STL'ATL'IMX People.





We, the undersigned therefore are agreed that we shall never surrender to
Federal and Provincial Extinguishment measures; that we shall take all
active steps to guarantee the survival of our sovereign STL'ATL'IMX Nation
within the borders of our ancient and inalienable domain; and if necessary,
that we shall bring the Canadian Government to account for its crimes
before International Tribunals.
