CN Drop your racist lawsuit! Support the Mohawks of Tyendinaga

Canadian National Railway is suing Shawn Brant, Jason Maracle, and Tara Green as well as their families and community (Jane and John Doe, also named in the suit), representing yet another attack on the sovereignty of the Mohawks of Tyendinaga. CNs lawsuit is a response to a blockade on CN tracks during April 2007, and another lawsuit against Shawn Brant for a blockade on June 29, 2007. Statements of defence and counterclaims have been filed against CN, claiming that CN pollutes Tyendinaga lands, creates a nuisance by the noise their operations cause, and scares away game.
