I. Judgment of the International Common Law Court of Justice
In the Matter of The People v. Bergoglio et al (Case Docket No. 18072014-002)
Judgement of the Magistrates of the Court,
including the majority decision with with one dissenting opinion
Issued in Chambers Friday, 18 July, 2014
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5dkEj4_45E&feature=youtu.be
The unanimous Judgement of the Court is that the three primary defendants Jorge BERGOGLIO, Adolfo PACHON and Justin WELBY have been convicted and are guilty as charged of aiding and abetting Crimes against Humanity, including murder and human trafficking, and of personal involvement in those crimes. Their guilt has been ably presented and proven beyond any reasonable doubt by the Prosecution.
The refusal of the Defendants to respond to a lawful Summons, to deny or refute the charges against them, or to present a counter case in their own defense, compelled the Court to consider their silence as a de facto pro confesso plea in which their guilt was established by their refusal to enter a plea. Precedent has established that pro confesso - which is the refusal of a defendant to plea in a case of profound importance - provides the basis for the lawful conviction and deposing of rulers and responsible heads of church and state. (The People in Parliament v. Charles Stuart, January 3, 1649)
In this precedent, the High Court established by the Parliament of England ruled that the silence of heads of church and state when accused of crimes against their own people amounts to a confession by the accused of all of the charges made against them (January 22, 1649).
One of our colleagues offers a dissenting opinion.
While concurring with the judgement that all three Defendants are guilty as charged, the dissenting Magistrate argues that pro confesso applies only when no other means exist to prevent such rulers from perpetrating tyranny and wars of aggression on their own people and their liberties, as was so in the historical case cited.
The dissenting colleague argues that by convicting the Defendants primarily under a pro confesso precedent, their actual guilt for the crimes cited can be construed to have been established according to a legal technicality. To quote our colleague's statement,
“The overwhelming guilt of these leaders for unspeakable crimes demands that we convict them not simply on the basis of a technicality but according to the evidence alone, so that their guilt is crystal clear to the world and to posterity.”
The Court has taken into account this dissenting opinion in formulating its final judgement.
Accordingly, it is the unanimous judgement of the Court that:
1. The Defendants Jorge BERGOGLIO, Adolfo PACHON and Justin WELBY are guilty as charged on two counts: of organizing, aiding and abetting Crimes against Humanity, including murder and human trafficking, and of personally participating in the routine and ritual rape, torture and murder of children.
2. The Defendants are sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole or pardon, and to the forfeiture of their assets, property and authority.
3. The sworn Sheriffs of the Court and their affiliated Direct Action Units, established by the Court on June 1, 2014, are ordered to immediately arrest and imprison the Defendants at facilities provided by the Court, and to seize their property and assets. The public is asked to assist the Sheriffs in this task. An open ended International Citizens' Arrest Warrant will be issued by the Court against the convicted persons within 48 hours of this judgement.
4. The Court will produce a full public statement making it clear that the basis for its conviction of the Defendants lay entirely in the hard evidence of their guilt, and that their refusal to plea, and hence the pro confesso judgement, was a contributing factor but not the basis of the guilty sentence.
5. In addition, to emphasize that this conviction is not a limited one aimed only at the top figureheads of murderous regimes, as of September 1, 2014, the Court will establish an ongoing Permanent Inquiry to investigate and prosecute others involved in the crimes proven in this case and contained in the permanent Court record. This Inquiry shall be entitled The Permanent Commission into Child Trafficking and Ritual Sacrifice and will have the power to subpoena and arrest, and adjudicate cases before the Court. The Commission will be international in scope, have no time restriction, and will seek cooperation from governments, international agencies and police forces with the aim of prosecuting and stopping forever the trafficking, ritual torture and murder of children.
6. To protect this Commission, its witnesses, officers and evidence, the Court record from the case of The People v. Bergoglio et all will remain sealed for now, along with the identity of the witnesses and Court officers, with the exception of that permitted by the special and unanimous authorization of the Court. The Jury members who were involved in proceedings thus far are relieved of their duties and thanked for their efforts.
7. This concludes the case of The People v. Bergoglio et al.

II. Who's really behind child trafficking? Following the big money across the globe
An Exclusive Report by Kevin D. Annett
"Cartels have moved into the human-smuggling business, imprisoning would-be border crossers, charging high rates, or requiring border crossers to act as drug mules or prostitutes ... The former Wachovia Bank (now Wells Fargo), Bank of America, and Western Union all made or continue to make millions from drug money collected in the U.S. and sent or laundered back to Mexico ... General Dynamics, Motorola and Raytheon are doing well by the (human trafficking prompted) border security build-up." - The Washington Spectator, July 1, 2014
"The crime syndicate called 'Ndrangheta provides the children used in the sacrifical killings in Holland, the ones I witnessed, including the human hunting parties. It's called "The Octopus" in Holland. They are deeply involved in human trafficking thanks to their control of the police and politicians". - Testimony of "Josephine", retired lawyer and eyewitness, given in a deposition to the International Common Law Court of Justice, Brussels, June 2014
"The 'Ndrangheta is a Mafia style criminal organization in Italy, having replaced the old style Cosa Nostra. 'Ndrangheta is currently the most powerful and richest criminal organization in Italy and possibly Europe, with an estimated annual revenue of at least 53 billion Euros ($72 billion US), gained from drug trafficking, extortion and money laundering". - Wikipedia.org
.....................
Crime pays: that's why it continues. And nothing pays as well as selling human beings, especially children.
Child trafficking isn't just some sick illness: it's a global, profitable business. And this simple fact is too often overlooked by the scramble to blame evil individuals, whether "Lizard-like Royals" or child-raping priests and popes, for the systematic slaughter of vast numbers of innocents.
The details of that global industry have surfaced, almost accidentally, in the course of the Brussels-based International Common Law Court trial of "Pope Francis" Jorge Bergoglio and others for child trafficking.
Commenced as a prosecution of the Catholic and Anglican church leaders for their documented involvement in harming children or aiding those who do, the Brussels case has since May unearthed considerable inside information on the corporate cartels that provide children for rape, torture and killing: and on their ties to the men presently under indictment by the Court.
Last month, I was contacted by a retired Dutch lawyer whose former husband is a member of the criminal syndicate that provides the children and adolescents who are used in ritualistic "hunting parties" in Belgium. I'll call her Josephine. We've spoken three times on skype, and her recorded statements are now in the archives of the International Common Law Court of Justice.
According to Josephine, her ex-husband and other members of"The Octopus" – the local slang term for Ndrangheta, today's born-again Mafia – provided ten children and adolescents who were hunted down and killed, and then mutilated, by wealthy men in forests near Oudergem, Belgium, in the spring of 2000 and 2004.
"I was there, I saw the whole thing. I was told they were kids from the juvenile detention centres in Brussels. They were let loose naked in the forest and hunted down and shot. The killers included Prince Friso of Holland and his wife's friend, the billionaire George Soros, Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte, and Prince Albert of Belgium. After they shot down the young ones they cut off the boys' penises and held them up like trophies, cheering and applauding."
While confirmed by other insiders, these grisly accounts can distract from the bigger story and motives behind the crime. The 'Ndrangheta syndicate, for example, obtains its child fodder through its deep involvement with the child-snatching roman catholic church and top Vatican officials. According to Matteo Macceo, a Radical Party member of the Italian Parliament,
"The modern Mafia are the same people who run the catholic church and the Italian government. They're indistinguishable, they're all in the same club. And their main concern is their assets, which come from organized crime: drugs, and arms dealing, and human trafficking." (from a statement to the author made in Rome, April 2010)
The Catholic church is clearly the largest baby trafficker in human history, making billions each year by selling catholic newborns to orphanages, foster agencies and undisclosed parties. In Spain alone, 300,000 children were trafficked by the church between 1940 and 1980, reaping over $20 billion. (See ICLCJ testimony of Antonio Barrero). And the present under-indictment Pope Francis himself organized such a marketing of children of more than 30,000 Argentine political prisoners during his stint as front man for the military junta there in the 1970's and '80's. (ICLCJ testimony of Witness No. 32)
This official slave trade ties in directly to criminal groups like 'Ndrangheta, which often provides the outlets for catholic trafficking, selling the babies through syndicate-controlled safehouses and providing political and legal protection to their Vatican associates.
"For every single child raping priest or baby-dealing nun, there are ten other people protecting them, greasing the wheels, making the payoffs to keep it all working smoothly and hidden from view. And 'Ndrangheta keeps rearing its ugly head in this whole business" stated a member of the Brussels Court's Prosecutor's Office, which is conducting the case against Jorge Bergoglio and others.
And yet even 'Ndrangheta is itself part of a bigger global cartel specializing in a vast modern human slave trade financed by major banks tied in through their routine laundering of drug money for the mob. These banks include Bank of America, J.P. Morgan and HSBC, which recently admitted to laundering over $2 billion in drug money for Mexican crime syndicates.
This economic empire, in which drugs and human trafficking are so intimately bound, is reinforced politically by the continual use of child prostitution by domestic spy agencies to blackmail and control politicians and leaders. "The CIA admitted their vested interest in child trafficking in their 2008 disclosure that since the Vietnam War they have operated child prostiution 'entrapment rings" to snare their congressional opponents, in Bangkok and Seoul" (Rock Creek Free Press, Washington).
All told, the recent exposure of royal and church involvement in child sacrificial rituals seems yet another tip in the proverbial iceberg of crimes in high places. But the fact of the common presence of 'Ndrangheta in so many of these crimes against children, and that syndicate's own direct ties to the Vatican, has given new impetus to the prosecution of Pope Francis and others who, like the Nazi defendants at Nuremberg, are symbolic of an entire system of corruption and death that must come down.
III. Republic of Kanata: The Winnipeg Proclamation of Independence establishing the Federated Republic of Kanata and Articles of the Constitution of The Federated Republic of Kanata
Colin Sullivan, Acting Secretary for the Provisional Council, Winnipeg.
The Winnipeg Proclamation of Independence establishing the Federated Republic of Kanata
Issued in Constitutional Convention, and Read and Promulgated on the Thirty First Day of October, 2014 on the land of the Two Rivers
We know it to be self-evident that all men and women are created equal, and are endowed with an unalienable life, liberty and sovereignty to love and protect one another, their children and the Earth, free of oppression, violence and tyranny.
We know and establish that when any system of government is destructive to this condition and purpose, it is the natural right and duty of free men and women to throw off any legal, political and mental shackles and allegiances, and create among themselves just and free associations, and a social order established to safeguard their sacred lives and liberties.
Therefore, We, the sovereign and freeborn men and women of the land of Kanata, as the source of all authority and law, and with a solemn respect to the obligations bestowed upon us by creation and by right of Natural Law, do hereby command this Proclamation be promulgated to all men, women and persons who presently occupy our sovereign land:
We state as a fact beyond dispute that for centuries, a predatory foreign power calling itself the Crown of England in alliance with its corporate sponsor and ally, the Church of Rome, has imposed itself as a warring occupation force on our peoples and the land.
This force has raped and drained our lands of their vast wealth and vitality, waged cruel and unprovoked wars of extermination against our nations, murdered the innocent, imposed fraudulent laws and taxes, subverted our liberties, stolen and destroyed our children, and kept us in a state of colonial dependency and impoverishment.
These crimes are attested not only by the continuation of these evils to the present day, but by centuries of proof of a deliberate intent by these foreign powers to falsely claim and steal the lands and lives of the original inhabitants of Kanata.
These false claims were made under the genocidal doctrine of Terra Nullius and other concepts found within the Papal Bulls Romanus Pontifex and Inter Catera, which fraudulently nullified the existence and lawful status of any non-catholic people. This fraud continued throughout all subsequent papal statutes and Crown of England impositions that formed the so-called Dominion of Canada in 1867, including such genocidal laws as the Indian Act which have murdered millions of our original inhabitants.
As the natural liberties of all these indigenous peoples have never been lawfully ceded or extinguished, the Crown and the Vatican have habitually dishonoured and violated Due Process of Law and the Law of Nations, and consequently, their claims to authority and jurisdiction within the lands of Kanata have no basis in law or fact. This is especially made true by the continued imposition of such fraudulent rule in “Canada” through the illegitimate courts established under so-called Canon and Admiralty law: courts that have no lawful or binding jurisdiction in our nations.
The criminal nature of these twin foreign powers is further attested by the successful conviction of the Crown of England and the Vatican, and their top officers, for Crimes against Humanity during the year 2013, in a Common Law Court of Justice established on our territories under international law.
As convicted criminal bodies whose heads – the Queen of England and the Pope in Rome – are now fugitives from justice under standing citizen arrest warrants, neither the Crown nor the Vatican have any claim whatsoever to our allegiance or obedience. Indeed, to obey or acknowledge these convicted felons is to commit a crime and to violate both the laws of man and of God.
By demonstrating only bad faith and duplicity in their dealings with all of our different peoples, Church and State in “Canada” have vitiated and nullified all treaties, laws and agreements established under their so-called reign. These institutions have in fact lost any right to legitimately govern or exist, and both of these powers must be actively repudiated, disestablished and replaced by all just men and women who stand under the law of Nature and its Common Law.
Secondly, we state as a fact beyond dispute that the same Crown and Vatican along with their chartered companies and agents have imposed the same regime of fraud and oppression on the settler European populations who immigrated to this land, denying them the Rule of Law and responsible government in order to dispossess these populations of their liberties and lands, and to steal the wealth of the nation for a self-governing oligarchy: an oppression that continues to the present day.
Twice in our history, in 1837 and 1885, Canadian patriots under Papineau, Mackenzie and Riel fought valiantly but unsuccessfully to unseat the oligarchs of church, Crown and high finance and establish a self-governing Republic in which every man and woman was sovereign. The defeat of these patriots allowed a colonial regime to corrupt the hopes of our nations and impose a regime of genocide on our lands. We stand in the tradition of these Republican patriots, and acknowledge that we are carrying to conclusion their dreams and program of an egalitarian and sovereign Republic of Kanata for all of its peoples.
As heirs to an empire of conquest, Canadian Church and State have consistently violated the Right of Jus Cogens (fundamental justice) in relation to indigenous and settler populations by deliberately instituting proven genocide, mass murder, warfare, child trafficking, enslavement, fraud and mischief, land theft, kidnapping and destruction of property and culture. These crimes violently abrogated not only the basic Magna Carta liberties of European settlers but the treaties already in place between the Crown-Church and indigenous nations, thereby violating Pacta sunt Servanda (the necessity to keep agreements). This violation clearly invalidated all of those subsequent instruments that the Crown and the Vatican have relied on to legitimate their conquest and continued occupation of the lands and lives of our peoples.
Is it any wonder that this same tyrannical regime has shown a similar contempt and disregard towards the land and its creatures, ravaging and despoiling them for its own profit and that of foreign corporate interests?
Thirdly, and because of these facts, we utterly reject the claim that the present form of law and government in “Canada” represents in any way a free society, founded and sustained as it is by fraud, tyranny and arbitrary foreign rule. Canadian “democracy” is in practice a sham that employs the outward forms of freedom while denying the substance of a truly lawful and equitable society.
The law in our country is a corrupt, judge-ruled system serving the selfish interests of the Crown and its corporate benefactors, whose greed has required such corrupting of the operation of the law by denying just or speedy remedy and relief for the majority of Canadians. The law in fact is a tool in the hands of the wealthy that operates to evade and deny justice, while entangling ordinary people in irresolvable and expensive litigation overseen by a self-governing and unaccountable judiciary.
These judicial wrongs are the legacy of a clique-ridden colonialism designed to perpetrate minority rule: the same reign that continues to deny justice to indigenous people for their deliberate genocide by church and state, and to enable the massive, institutionalized rape and trafficking of our children.
It is undeniable that by their status as the sworn agents of this criminal regime known as the Crown of England and its Monarch, Canadian police officers, judges, soldiers, civil servants and Members of Parliament are all colluding in a criminal conspiracy, at the behest of a convicted criminal body. As agents of what is clearly a rogue power under international law, these public officials are obligated by their Oath of Allegiance to the Crown to serve a foreign criminal, not the people of Canada. Consequently, every aspect of “official” Canadian society constitutes an unlawful and destructive war against our lands and liberties, and thereby is and will always remain our enemy until these criminals and agents stand down or are removed from their offices.
For these undeniable reasons, there exists no institutional remedy for the warfare and oppression inflicting our peoples, as bitter experience has proven. The cure for the sickness called Canada must be invented from the ground up, within the roots of the Common Law that binds all free people.
Let it be known, then, that because of these indisputable facts, the time has now come to nullify and dissolve the crime of Church and State in our land by establishing a free, responsible and self-governing society on our soil. The historical moment has arrived to create for the first time a Federated Republic of Equals from among all our separate nations, as men and women who freely consent to covenant and associate according to Common Law and Due Process.
That sovereign Republic is Kanata.
In this purpose, we acknowledge that all free and sovereign people must dwell within a community that safeguards the well being and liberty of each of its members, and not according to class or special privilege. We therefore proclaim that all of the lands and the oceans and their wealth within our Republic are not the property of any individual or group, but belong equally to all of the people, and are held in common by the people as a visible sign that the Natural Law of Peace and Equality is honoured and safeguarded.
Upon this Pronouncement, warranted by our sovereignty and Right of Claim as free men and women, upon Necessity, We the People invoke the considered judgement of the law and the blessing of our common Creation, by hereby proclaiming the establishment of the Sovereign and Federated Republic of Kanata, which henceforth and forever has sole legitimate authority and lawful jurisdiction over the lands and seas formerly known as the “Dominion of Canada”.
Accordingly, and by this Proclamation, we hereby sever now and forever all ties and allegiances to the Crown of England and to the Vatican, we disestablish and nullify their authority over us, and we extinguish any allegiance or service owed to these powers. Sic temper tyrannis! Thus is the fate of all tyrants!
In Witness Thereof, We pledge our mutual lives and our sacred honour, and have hereunto set our hands and signatures and caused to be established the Seal of the Federated Republic of Kanata as a Free Society on the Land, under customary land law jurisdiction. The Constitution of our Republic and this Proclamation are ratified and in effect as of today, Friday, October 31, 2014.
Done and Duly Registered as a Public Proclamation within the registry of the Common Law Court of Justice based in Winnipeg, Manitoba, on this Thirty First Day of October in the year 2014, by We, the Provisional Council of the Federated Republic of Kanata, on the traditional lands of the Cree, Metis and Anishinabe Nations and European settlers:
__________________________________
(signed and dated)
Articles of the Constitution of The Federated Republic of Kanata

Article Two - Sovereignty
All ties and allegiance between the Crown of England and the people of our nations are hereby and forever dissolved as of October 31, 2014. The Dominion of Canada, its courts and government, and the Office of the Governor-General are hereby abolished, and the Oath of Allegiance to the Queen and the Crown of England is annulled.
Article Three – Criminality of the Crown
The Queen of England, Elizabeth Windsor, her descendents, successors and agents, and all pretenders to or holders of the office of the so-called British Monarchy, are declared to be the public enemies of the people of Kanata, are banned from our nation, and are subject to immediate arrest and trial if they enter the territory of the Republic of Kanata.
Article Four – Criminality of the Vatican
The Bishop of Rome and his agents, and all holders of the Office of Supreme Pontiff of the Church of Rome and of the Vatican College of Cardinals, are declared to be the public enemies of the people of Kanata, are banned from our nations, and are subject to immediate arrest and trial if they enter the territory of the Republic of Kanata.
Article Five – Nullification of the Crown and Admiralty/Canon Law
All previous treaties, statutes, acts, agreements and other declarations establishing the alleged supremacy of the Crown and the Church of England and the Church of Rome over the territory known as Canada are forever cancelled and declared null and void. So-called Admiralty and Canon Law are henceforth and forever inoperative and without authority or jurisdiction in Kanata.
Article Six – Supremacy of the Republic
The Federated Republic of Kanata is hereby and forever established as the sole, lawful and legitimate authority over the lands and seas formerly known as the Dominion of Canada, and has absolute jurisdiction over these territories and their peoples. Those lands formerly designated as “crown land”, as well as “clergy reserves”, and properties and land occupied by the Roman Catholic, Anglican, Presbyterian and United Church of Canada, and all lands held by foreign speculators or “agents of the Crown”, do hereby and forever become the common property of the people of Kanata.

The sovereignty of all indigenous nations within the Federated Republic of Kanata is hereby recognized and safeguarded as part of a constitutionally-enshrined union of separate nations. The Indian Act, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, the Department of Aboriginal Affairs, so-called First Nations treaties, and state funded “aboriginal organizations”, as well as all other vestiges of colonialism, are hereby and forever abolished.
Once lawfully established in their own right, any indigenous nation either join the Republic or stay outside such a Union, and may lawfully secede from the Republic of Kanata at any time, if such succession is approved unanimously and consensually by all of its members who are sixteen years and older. Such a separated nation will then constitute a federated territory within the Republic of Kanata, although the Republic will retain lawful and sovereign jurisdiction over the lands and resources of the separated nation. The bounty of these resources will be shared equitably within the indigenous nations. The latter will enjoy full autonomy in a “home rule” arrangement within the Federated Republic, but shall enact no laws or customs at odds with Common Law, due process or the liberties and articles of this Constitution.
Article Eight – Inherent Liberties
All citizens of the Republic of Kanata are born and endowed with inherent, unalienable liberties under Natural Law which cannot be restricted, abrogated, denied or abolished by any authority, statute or power.

It is elected by free, universal and secret ballot every two years by all citizens sixteen years and older, without conditions or qualifications. The Council of Indigenous Nations is a consultative body to the Congress established to safeguard the traditional rights and customs of indigenous nations, and has the power to formulate and introduce legislation for approval by the Congress. The Council is elected by free, universal and secret ballot every two years by all indigenous people sixteen years and older, without conditions or qualifications. The Congress must obtain the unanimous approval of the Council before approving any legislation that effects indigenous people.
Article Ten – Office of President
The government of Kanata shall also consist of an office of President, who is elected every four years by all citizens who are sixteen years and older.

a) local, popularly elected “common law community courts” which may be established by twelve or more citizens to adjudicate any civil or criminal matter; b) Appeals courts, and c) a Supreme Court of the Republic.
Every level of the judiciary shall operate according to the principles and norms of the Common Law. All judges shall elected by the general populace from a field of qualified candidates, and are subject to the will of the people in general, and the decisions of common law juries within court.
The basis of all legality in Kanata is the Common Law and the trial by jury system, founded on Natural Justice and Equity. No other legal system is recognized or authorized within Kanata. Municipal peace keeping officers and court and district sheriffs shall be elected by the people every two years and are subject to recall. Sheriffs stand under the authority of the local community and not the central government.
Article Fourteen – Balance of Power

The land and the sea cannot be bought, sold, mortgaged, rented, leased, speculated in or in any way alienated from their natural condition as a free resource accessible to all. Water is declared to be a free and non-commercial essential necessity and a public service that may not be bought or sold, or otherwise alienated from humanity. Wind, solar, tidal and other safe energy sources shall replace the nuclear, uranium, oil and fossil fuel industries, which shall be expropriated without compensation and phased out of existence.
Article Sixteen – Public Nature and Ownership of Finances
All of the money supply, banks, credit and financial institutions are nationalized, and established as publicly owned services under the control and direction of the State and of the local community. All banking debts, interest rates and mortgages are cancelled, and a general moratorium is declared on all personal and private debts.
Income tax is abolished. Taxes shall be levied according to the wealth created, and assessed on a graduated scale according to income or ability to pay. A 100% tax is imposed on all wealth gained by inheritance, interest and speculation. All back taxes owed by the wealthy and corporations shall be immediately collected, if necessary by the seizure of their property and assets.
Article Seventeen – Economic Sovereignty and Freedom
Foreign ownership of the economy is abolished. No non-citizen may own, buy, lease, sell, rent, mortgage, speculate in or otherwise influence any sector of the economy. Local production, exchange and trading networks shall be established and encouraged to phase out money and the market economy, and to keep economic power and decision-making in the hands of the people.
All basic industries and services, including the media, are nationalized, and will operate under public ownership and democratic citizens' control and self-management. Works Councils elected by all employees shall operate and oversee all industries, businesses and services, and shall hold final authority over all corporate decisions in consultation with Congress Delegates and the Office of the President.
All citizens of the Republic sixteen years and older shall receive a guaranteed annual income commensurate with their basic needs. All medical and dental services, education at all levels, housing and transportation are nationalized, and are provided universally and free of charge to all citizens. Child rearing is a community responsibility organized collectively but overseen by biological parents, who will be guaranteed free, universal and quality child care from infancy to puberty.
Article Eighteen – Agriculture and Farming
The Republic of Kanata shall fulfill the historic hope of its ancestors by providing up to two hundred hectares of free agricultural land for any citizen wishing to pursue farming. The State shall protect and support such farms through tariff protection, subsidies and a fair and regulated exchange system for agricultural produce that serves the farmer and consumer, under community control. Ecologically sound agricultural practices devoid of petro-chemicals and pollutants will be established by law. The sale, use and importation of genetically modified organisms and crops derived therefrom, and of dangerous chemicals and pesticides, will be legally banned and prohibited anywhere within Kanata. Diversified agriculture geared to local consumption will be encouraged.
To facilitate such a grassroots, ecologically sound agricultural movement, all agribusinesses and factory farms shall be nationalized and their lands distributed equitably to small farmers. Communal farms shall be encouraged and subsidized, and local family farming will be protected from incursion. All destruction of agricultural land shall be halted immediately through strict zoning laws and green belts guaranteeing food growing land, and through the creation of local agricultural land reserves. To facilitate this land preservation movement and prohibit land speculation, all private reality companies will be abolished and replaced by locally elected land management committees.
Article Nineteen – Separation of Church and State: A Just and Secular Society
Church and State are strictly separated. All the lands, buildings and other property belonging to church corporations larger than single congregations shall be nationalized. All tax exemptions to religious bodies are nullified, and churches will be taxed like any other corporation.
All clergy are considered citizens who are obligated to uphold and protect the Common Law of Kanata and its courts, and cannot hold allegiance to or obey the laws of foreign churches or the Church of Rome or its affiliates. Churches may operate freely but may not influence the government. No funding will be provided by any level of government to any religious denomination or to their schools. Religious schools may operate on an individual basis but will receive no special immunities or privileges.
To overcome the crippling legacy of genocide and religious imperialism, all foreign based churches are banned from Kanata. The diplomatic recognition of the Vatican and the Church of Rome is terminated, and the catholic Papal Nuncio is expelled from Kanata. All other treaties, benefits and financial agreements and concordats with the Church of Rome are annulled. Because of their criminal status as agents of conquest and genocide, the Roman Catholic, Anglican, Presbyterian and United Church of Canada shall be legally disestablished, and their lands, assets, properties and resources shall be forfeited and seized by the State as reparations for their centuries of theft, fraud and other crimes against the peoples of Kanata.
Article Twenty – Diplomatic and Geo-political Independence; The Armed Forces and Popular Militia
The Republic of Kanata shall enter into no foreign alliances or military coalitions, and rejects all forms of secret diplomacy. Kanata shall withdraw from NATO and NORAD, and from the international arms trade. Kanata shall also withdraw from all international corporate agencies such as the WTO, World Bank and IMF. All foreign debts to international banks and other corporations shall be cancelled.
All citizens of Kanata of both sexes between the ages of sixteen and thirty years of age shall for a period of no less than two years serve in a popular militia known as The Army of the Republic of Kanata (ARK), which shall replace the standing military forces of Canada. The existing military shall be screened for political loyalty and its remnants incorporated into the ARK under the oversight of Congressional Delegates, and shall be administered the Oath of Allegiance to the Republic. All officers of the ARK shall be elected and recallable by the soldiery. The ARK shall be governed by an elected Supreme Military Council consisting equally of soldiers and officers, and overseen by Congressional Delegates. Additional local militias formed from the armed citizenry may be lawfully established with the oversight of Congressional Delegates.
Article Twenty One – Constitutional Amendments
The Congress, meeting in joint session with the Indigenous Council, may with unanimous consent draft, debate and establish Amendments to this Constitution on the basis of public emergencies and political consensus.
Pledge of Allegiance to the Federated Republic of Kanata
I (name), hereby and forever sever all ties and allegiance to the Crown of England and to the British monarch and his or her descendents, to the government known as the Dominion of Canada, and to any other authority.
I do solemnly pledge true allegiance to the sovereign Federated Republic of Kanata and to the Common Law and Liberty upon which it rests. I swear to establish and defend the Republic against all of its enemies, whether foreign or domestic.
I pledge to stand in solidarity with all those who swear this Oath and to defend them unconditionally. I take this pledge freely, without coercion, mental reservation, or ulterior motive, according to my honour and liberty as a freeborn man or woman.
