The KI Six Appeal

Rumour has dates for appeal as second or third week of April.
Apparently Platinex is the obstacle on setting a date.

We have yet to test the sincerity Ontario on the jailing of the KI Six.

They now say they want to help out once KI launches an appeal of the sentence. Apparently the irony of their own role in the events that led up to the jailing of the KI Six is lost on them.

True they did call for fines rather than a jail sentence. Of course,
that was rather easy after Bob Lovelace had been sentenced to 6 months
in jail. Bettter to postion yourself to "blame the court" knowing full well that the chances were high for jail time. And we can't discount the government strategists calculating the risk of the dominoes falling and First Nations shutting down mining exploration in large swaths of
Ontario's north.

If Ontario is serious on their offers of help they will support an unconditional release of the
KI Six during the appeal.
