    As one of the 6 Nation Clan Mothers reclaiming Caledonia, Toronto, Brampton <br />
    and many other areas, Ms. Horn has filed in both Canadian and U.S. courts <br />
    regarding indigenous sovereignty, and is charging the Queen of England with <br />
    genocide. This woman is no small potatoes and baby boomers will remember <br />
    her activism from the 60's and 70's. She only grows stronger

    "Nahanee, age 71, was weak from the flu and asthma when BC Supreme Court Justice Brenda Brown ordered her to the Surrey Women’s Pre-Trial Centre in January."

    Brenda should be charged with voluntary manslaughter.
