1969: Mike Kanentakeron Mitchell & Mort Ransen: You Are On Indian Land, National Film Board of Canada
  • Most of the documentary focuses on a single act of protest, Mohawks blockading the Canada/US border near Cornwall ON.

  • Have there been any blockade actions at any US/Mexico crossings?

1993: Alanis Obomsawin: Kanehsatake: 270 Years of Resistance, National Film Board of Canada
  • begins with discussions of the Oka crisis, the expansion of a golf course and allotment of land for a luxury housing development
  • Obomsawin discusses the history of this golf course, once common land, the French Canadians began playing golf there to the detriment of Native farmers who used the commons for their cattle, then in the 1940s the town expropriated the land and made it a golf course officially.
  • there is thus a long term period of a disrespect shown to Native uses of the land that continued into the 1990s (and beyond)
  • the mayors of the region all supported the mayor of Oka, who refused to reconsider his project
  • the Quebecoise of the region also chanted "savages" in response to their unhappiness about this event
  • some interview subjects state that much of the town didn't like the development plans either and the mayor rejected the advice of everyone, including the premiere, to not go forward.
