Good afternoon and welcome once again to Jacobson native art. I just wanted to make some things clear for those following this story that the corruption within the estate of Norval Morrisseau runs deep. Their response to my claim being filed was an absolute joke at best. It’s pathetic really. The reality is that the estate is being run by white colonizers in Gabe Vadas and Cory ding dong Dingle who had a bizarre relationship with the child sex abuser in Norval Morrisseau. We simply cannot rely on these people to tell us the truth. They fear this truth that I am bringing forward as someone who was also sexually abused. They remind me as a 60’s scoop survivor of what took place regarding the Canadian government trying to deny what happened in residential schools. It’s the same formula from the colonial playbook. It’s absolutely disgusting. Even that poor lawyer of theirs has to step up to the plate and attempt to protect their lies. Trying everything in their colonial power to have my case dismissed before it even happens. Pathetic.
I will never honour or respect people like them who have tried to paint me in the media as some broken and confused individual. I know exactly what happened to me. First off, it’s been an embarrassing weight that I’ve had to carry for the last 19 years. Having to face this garbage on a daily basis for such a long time. Someone I once held in such high esteem to turn out to be a total piece of shit of a human being. When I found the other 6 victims and their names, I had to do something. I couldn’t just let this whole thing slide. It’s absolutely wrong to hide this truth and to say nothing. I had to come forward and believe me it certainly hasn’t been easy. The delusion that Norval was some genius and a great role model for us younger First Nations simply isn’t the truth. He sexually abused children, young boys and young men. That is the reality that I experienced and have found. I simply cannot allow Colonialism to hide our stories and discoveries. We are in a time of truth and reconciliation. Not hide and deny. That is not the future I want for anybody including most importantly, our children. Both here and now and in our future generations. The truth of these stories must have their day in court. The Supreme Court of British Columbia to be exact.
Let’s get a couple of other things cleared up here as well. As ding dong Dingle has claimed that I wanted to be like Norval Morrisseau fashioning myself like him? Lol. Not true. Before any of this happened to me I did hold a lot of respect for Norval but I never wanted to be like him. I never wanted to be gay, bisexual or a sexual abuser like Norval Morrisseau. I’m a heterosexual man, I’m a great father who is dedicated to my son and family. Regarding his art? Most people who know woodland art would say that I surpassed Morrisseau along time ago. I would agree. I simply took what he had done and made it better. Cleaner and sharper. Norval himself could never paint his own style better than I can. I’m just simply a better version. I’m a better human being and have been on the path of sobriety for the last 27 years now. Something Norval could never do throughout his lifetime. Regarding being a father? He abandoned all his children so that he could chase the colonizers carrots. He was a chronic sex addict as well who preyed on vulnerable young men and boys. I don’t act that way and I have no interest in being a sexual predator like him.

There are just so many differences between us and after discovering the sex crimes and coming forward about it? Why on earth would I look to him as a cultural icon and in whom I should align my values with. It simply isn’t true what fuck nut Dingle has to say. He’s got a major invested interest in doing everything he can to try and squash this story. During the fraud investigation he was all over kigigi, ebay, Craigslist etc buying up as many Morrisseau paintings that he could. That is the reality going on here and I’m sure we’ll expose that as this story continues to unfold. My advice to all my collectors and fans is be aware. The truth I represent is real. These are truthful accounts that I am bringing to light. No lies. Just real facts of discovery and personal experience. My response through my affidavit will make these clearer because unfortunately, these people are willing to sell their souls to uphold the lies that have been revealed through my investigations on this subject. I know the truth, they can’t stand it that I’m coming forward to shed this light for many who didn’t know. To those who knew? I’ll be exposing everything that I have found. You can count on me to do so…
