THE FOLLOWING IS A STATEMENT FROM THE FIRST NATIONS

ALGONQUINS FACE AGGRESSIVE NEW INJUNCTION,
CALL ON MCGUINTY TO NEGOTIATE

Mr. Justice Thomson of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice in Kingston 
issued
a new order late today which aims at ending the peaceful protest by the 
Ardoch
Algonquins and our allies.  We are currently occupying a proposed uranium 
mine
site in eastern Ontario where a company called Frontenac Ventures 
Corporation
wants to explore for uranium and eventually open a mine.

The interim injunction issued today says:

* "any representative of the AAFN, Shabot or any one supporting their 
position
or associated with them in any way shall forthwith immediately leave the 
subject
property";
* "Frontenac shall have immediate, unfettered and unobstructed access to the
subject property including the field office, access road and all of the
exploration property and the Clarendon site";
* The police are "authorized to arrest and remove any person who has 
knowledge
of this order and who is contravening or has contravened the order".
*Police retain their discretion to decide whether to arrest or remove anyone
pursuant to this order.

The final sentence of today's order says: "It is important for all concerned 
…
that confrontation in any form simply should not happen".

Today, Co-Chiefs Paula Sherman and Randy Cota again called for a peaceful
settlement and called on the province to begin discussions to resolve the 
issues
which led to the protest.  Said Chief Sherman, “we have yet to hear anything
from Premier McGuinty or his Minister of Aboriginal Affairs, David Ramsay.  
They
do not appear to have any interest in resolving this mess.”  Ardoch 
spokesperson
Robert Lovelace added “The recent Report of the Ipperwash Inquiry very 
clearly
said that these disputes should be resolved through negotiations rather than
through injunctions.  We agree, but it seems like the McGuinty government is
ignoring the recommendations of Justice Linden and instead continuing to use
injunctions rather than negotiations.”

Last year Frontenac Ventures Corporation began aggressively exploring for
uranium on our land in Frontenac County in eastern Ontario.   FVC staked
hundreds of mineral claims covering more than 5,000 hectares of land and
clear-cut large areas of forest to make way for the next phase of 
exploration:
drilling core samples to determine how much uranium is under the land they 
have
staked.  The government of Ontario has allowed all of this to happen without 
any
consultations whatsoever with our communities, in clear violation of 
Canadian
law.
