An Important Message from Algonquin elder Tom Dostou

Cree Indians are traditional substinence hunters who live off the land. For over 30 years they've been disrupted by environmental changes. The water on Maniwaki (Kitigan Zibi) is polluted and radioactive. No one knows where it is coming from. They have shut down 20 wells. E-Coli bacteria is shutting down wells across many Canadian reservations.

One Cree Elder saw four geese fall dead from the sky. They were all skin and bones. The prophecies talks about a time when birds fall dead out of sky. After this, there is no hope. If the disease gets to the eagles, it's the ultimate sign there is no hope. The Canadian government said they found flu in Canadian geese. What the government is not saying is the rest of the story: if people can't eat the birds or drink the water, how will they survive?

William Commanda, (James Bay, Canada,) carries the Prophecy Belt for the 7 Fires. He prayed with the Hopi and Mayan traditional leaders and discovered all prophecies are the same: the great change will happen in 7 years: 2012. The leaders still pray, but there is not much more they can do. Instead, they have turned the matter over to humanity.

We must make changes fast. Sacrifices must be made now. The power of the changes we need are equivalent to the power of a tsunami sweeping across the whole of America. The combination of contaminated water and food supplies and avian bird flu are to be feared. We have a choice: either to continue as we are and let Nature run it's course, or make changes to help the earth and ourselves in good ways. Mother Earth has to rebalance herself, and have to create people in the tribe to "redefine ourselves."

What each person must do is create a tribal entity in their own communities.

Special thanks to Gina for sharing this vitally important message.
