Dudley George died standing up for aboriginal rights: brother August 21, 2006 - 18 minutes ago
http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/21082006/2/national-dudley-george-died- standing-aboriginal-rights-brother.html FOREST, Ont. (CP) - Dudley George's brother says the aboriginal protester died standing up for the rights of his people. Sam George says he's proud of his brother for defending aboriginal land, even though it cost the 38-year old his life. George's words to the Ipperwash inquiry come as the judicial probe into his brother's death hears final submissions. Dudley George was shot by a police sniper on Sept. 6, 1995 when provincial police marched on Ipperwash Provincial Park, on the shores of Lake Huron. A splinter group of aboriginals from the nearby Kettle and Stony Point reserve had taken control of the park two days earlier, claiming they were protecting burial grounds. His brother says Dudley can rest in peace now that inquiry is heading into its final phase. Four days of final arguments will be heard this week, with a closing ceremony set for Friday. Justice Sidney Linden says he expects to deliver his final report to the Ontario government before year's end. The inquiry has heard testimony from 139 witnesses during 229 days of hearings. The extent to which the former Conservative government interfered with the police handling of the standoff has been a key issue at the judicial probe.
