On this Canada day, why I turned down the Toronto star and why the Canadian media cannot be trusted. They lie like the estate of sexual predator Norval Morrisseau

Good afternoon to each and everyone who is seeking the truth here @ Jacobson native art. I was recently approached by the Toronto star and this rogue reporter named Ryan McMahon who I thought was a friend. He contacted me 6 weeks ago saying I was the first one he sought out to ask the question where do we go from here? He mentioned how he was going to send me some questions to answer but that never materialized. We exchanged text messages and it just began to slowly fall apart. His approach to doing a story seemed unprepared and sketchy at best. Very poor follow through and expected me to wait on him hand and foot so to speak. So I declined. I didn’t feel like he was capable of working with me about this story. Although he said he did believe me about the sexual abuse concerning the pedophile in Morrisseau, 

My spirit wasn’t feeling it with him though as I don’t think he is invested in the truth as I am. After explaining to him that it was best for him to move on, he began to make comments how I’m not a real journalist and that I was bullying him around. Again not true as when it comes to this Morrisseau strory I don’t think there is anyone in the world more equipped to be honest and straight forward as me. It’s just another sad and pathetic reality when it comes to the Canadian media telling us the truth. They simply cannot. Their ability to tell the truth is weak and totally inconsistent with doing the due diligence that is necessary around this dark and troubling story. So I bid him farewell and cut those loose ends wishing to hopefully connect with someone who is willing to do some real reporting. 

Here are a few reasons why the Canadian media cannot be trusted. It’s disgraceful to see these empty stories being fed to us First Nations and Canadians alike. They need to seriously do a better job if they ever mean to represent truth and reconciliation. It’s disgusting that these reporters don’t tell us the truth. 

Take for example this: 
 The story recently put out by Global news is a scam. Their not telling us the truth. The Morrisseau children were involved in that fraud. Their not victims. They’ve never come clean about their involvement. They never came forward about writing these false statements which are criminal. They are lies that haven’t been dealt with.  Why does the estate continue to lie to you, the public? Why do they lie to the Canadian media by not being honest with their involvement? They owe it to the cultural fabric of this country to tell the truth. It’s absolutely disgraceful. Here’s what the family of Morrisseau said about those black dry brush fakes that are now being exposed in this criminal investigation:



The estate of sexual predator Norval Morrisseau needs to come clean. They need to set the record straight. This reality that they are in will never find justice until they start from the bottom up. They want the glory and healing without doing any of the real and meaningful work that is a head of  them. They need to address the sex crimes and get honest about that part of Norval. He was a very sick man in his life, still drinking right up until his death. I know, I saw it. I witnessed his so called adopted son in Gabe Vadas still feeding him alcohol, strapped in his wheelchair. With Parkinson’s disease. Even there, trying to sexually touch my ass with norvals hand in 2006. I have witnesses and survivors who told their story to me and having to share it with the world because it is the right thing to do. Because of the grave nature of telling future lies about this man being a cultural icon. Setting up another generation of children and the public with this continued lying. All for the money at the end of the day....even still. 


As one of the worlds leading woodland school artists it is my obligation to tell you the truth. I must continue to do so because the Canadian media simply can’t. Another issue I have is how the Canadian media spins this story as the biggest art fraud in Canadian history? Not true. That statement  was taken from the police investigation and they don’t know what their even talking about. None of those police officers are experts in art fraud. It was their first time covering an investigation like this. The real truth is that the biggest art fraud in Canadian history is the continual world wide fraud of Pacific Northwest Coast art. That fraud is in the  billions of dollars and supersedes anything related to the Morrisseau fraud. Again shitty reporting by the Canadian media. So from my standpoint you can see why I have major issues with this deception. 

I’ll end with this final revelation regarding the continual lies being put forth by just about everyone concerning the corrupt legacy of sexual predator Norval Morrisseau. Here’s a screen shot from the estate. Listen carefully because this is going to cook your noodle: 
When I was talking with Ryan McMahon of the Toronto star I said to him, how is it that it’s ok to lie to the church about norvals past? Why is it ok to hide Morrisseau’s sins of sexual abuse behind the cross of Jesus? Does the metropolitan United church of Canada know of this? What about having a suspected forger of Morrisseau’s art as the so called elder giving his shady views on the pedophile artist? How come no one is investigating Kinsmen Robinson gallery for selling dozens and dozens of those suspect Côte fakes? They even admitted it but said if it got out they’d go bankrupt. What about that? You see the more you know, the more clear this story becomes. How come they aren’t being held accountable? Is it fair to us survivors of that abuse and is it fair to throw around the concepts of truth and reconciliation regarding these deeper truths? How does that make those of us who have suffered feel any justice at all? I find it absolutely fuckin disgusting. I’m a 60’s scoop who is alive and who has fought my way through so much of this and how come I still cannot have justice? Do I have to carry the lie and be quiet because the money that is involved is worth more than me? 

How come the lawyers, the legal institutions and the law continue to turn a blind eye? Why is it that I’ve had to turn my back on everyone who continues to uphold the lie? Why is it that the world of academia turns a blind eye as well? Don't these people realize how hard it is to come forward  and try to do the right thing? I mean no wonder people have such low confidence in this system. It’s such a challenging experience to put yourself out there and to try and set the record straight. It’s difficult because of all the fucking lying going on. That’s the reality. At this point it is a lonely road standing up for the truth and there simply isn’t enough help and I need to trust the reporter that will cover this story eventually. That’s my dilemma I suppose and I guess it’s up to me to keep on moving forward. I will. I’ll continue to do so because I believe in telling the truth. Unlike the Canadian media who doesn’t even know what the real story is. But I can assure all of you who come here to read that I’ll be honest about everything I know. I trust that the great spirit is with me and sooner than later I hope to find someone who is willing to report on all the truth I know. As for Ryan McMahon and the Toronto Star? 

You should’ve done a much better job at handling this truth and treating me with the integrity and respect I deserve. I gave you names of victims, I gave you names of the previous reporters I dealt with, I explained to you the weight of what I carry each and every day and you did nothing except attack me in the end. And that dear Ryan? Was fuckin pathetic.

In dealing with sick and twisted sexual abusers like Norval Morrisseau? This is how it’s done

 

Being out here deep in the vast wilderness of the Kootenay mountains has taught me so much about self reliance and independence. I am certainly not afraid to be out here by myself. These last 6 years out here have built my character and sharpened by daily awareness about life and survival in some of the worlds most harshest climates. City life is for wimps. You have to truly abandon yourself and your philosophy of the good and bad because nature itself simply doesn’t give a fuck. That’s why I love her so much. Man is nothing out here but a whimper in the grand scheme of things. Nature spirit is king alpha out here. The more time I spend with her alone, the clearer I get. And so it is with sharing these truths around our new knowledge of Morrisseau and the entire sickness of that grotesque estate. 

In the spirit of truth and reconciliation everything in this moment of time is being turned upside down. The hunger for real truth and transformation is upon us. We are moving into a deeper knowing and knowledge. It is how this reality works. The world of lies and deceptions is crumbling all around us. The light of truth is illuminating many uncomfortable facts in this generation. Our ability to share and access information is perhaps the greatest it’s ever been in human history. From one generation to the next there are those of us who have had it with the bullshit, the lies and scams that keep hard truths in the realms of secrecy. We are tired of the old paradigms. Slowly we are waking up to the facts that colonialism is the weapon against us, all of us both indigenous and non native alike. 

We have so much work to do in being brave enough to break away from those things that cause the bondage of self. The hunger for money, property and prestige. The desire to run over and control, to cheat and manipulate. To oppress others for their own selfish gain. To hide the truth because of whatever that hidden agenda may be, most of the time it’s money. Once you see that? The rest is usually pretty easy to see and become enlightened to. Truth is like that. You can depend on it. It’s a real force in life. It guides the way. It illuminates and exposes what is hidden in the darkness. 

The exact same principles have been applied and have exposed the sick and twisted reality of the historic sexual abuser in Norval Morrisseau. A man who abandoned his children to chase the white mans dream of sex drugs and rock n roll. Art fame in good ol colonized Canada, his chief abuser and manipulator. The church and the abuse that happened there only fed his inner perversions and he too fell into the warped reality of being an abuser. An abuser of children which is really the fuckin worst. He even sexually abused his own son. What the fuck? I don’t know what kind of reality these Morrisseau followers and those in the estate are thinking but in the larger world around your stupid and fake bubble? 

Sexual abusers get bricks shoved down their fuckin throats. In prison they get their throats slit. Most of them get either stabbed, shot and killed. That’s what happens to sexual predators. Morrisseau is no fuckin different. A father who sexually abuses his own child is the absolute fuckin worst. You people are beyond disgusting. It’s so warped and fucked up that history is correcting it. The present forces are indeed correcting it. The future is correcting it. Those like the estate of Morrisseau have been the most spiritually bankrupt people I have ever met. So blocked off from the sunlight of the spirit, their only reality becomes that of maintaining the lie, the delusion because they simply cannot handle the very nature of this truth. 


They are in such a dark abyss of denial that the truth becomes too much to bare. Think of this whole police investigation? Think of the Ontario superior court saying that the fake Morrisseau paintings were actually real? Think of all those people who vouched for the fake paintings? Even his own children and family signed sworn statements that the fakes, the black drybrush were all real? Legal experts saying the fakes were real? Dozens and dozens of galleries and auction houses all vying for their stakes in the fakes?

Holy fuckin shit is right. 

Even worse than that? This current police investigation into the criminal enterprise of the fakes and not even knowing that they were actually bringing some sort of justice to the pedophile artist and sexual child abuser in Norval Morrisseau. Imagine that? Holy fuckin christ is right. That is the reality going on here. This is what has been found and discovered regarding the legacy of Norval Morrisseau. 

You know, it’s crazy shit, no doubt. A destroyer of delusions is exactly what this truth is. There’s no way of getting around it. The witnesses and survivors have spoken. More will be revealed. The truth is being shared and many more people have personally contacted me to congratulate me on my strength and courage. To tell it as it is. No motive except for the truth. This is what sets me apart from a multitude of opinions. I am living this truth. I am in it. I see. 

I will continue to share the truth of my story. There is so much power in being genuine and honest. I am grateful to the spirit of my Creator who continues to show me the way. For our children and for those like my son, an innocent boy who has all my confidence and trust in the world and I having his. Daddy always loves you and will be here for you to protect you each and every day. The way a real father does....

All my relations, MAJ 

P.S: Watch this video. This is how fathers protect their children from sexual predators and abusers. Get a fuckin life Morrisseau estate.

Here is an updated list of all those I exposed as a criminal, a fraud, a cheat and liars around the woodland school of art

 

Photo sourced from an indigenous gathering and ceremony last week. 

Good afternoon and once again a sincere thank you for all the kindness and support from those who have aligned themselves with the truth concerning this art fraud in our woodland school of art. It’s been one of the craziest and most warped experiences of my entire life. An undertaking that would break just about anyone on the planet. The depth of deceptions and lies these crooked bastards would go through is truly unprecedented in art fraud history. 

These names and the galleries who played a role in this fiasco is massive. This will be a permanent record of their deceit. We will not forget. This is truth and reconciliation and these individuals should and will be held accountable. Let’s get started with this “black listed” group of deceivers: 

Norval Morrisseau - Sexual abuser of innocent children and young boys. Lied to an entire nation through multiple generations regarding his sick sex crimes. Forever disgraced as a pedophile. 

Gary Lamont - Arrested, charged and convicted as a serial sexual rapist. Recently charged with more sex crimes and formally charged in the Morrisseau art fraud. He is officially completely destroyed...

Morrisseau estate - All of Morrisseau’s children exposed as being involved in the fraud of their “sexual predator“ fathers legacy including brother Wolf and nephews Benjamin and Bruce Morrisseau. 

Christian Morrisseau - Recently deceased but forever marked as the major player from the estate of Norval Morrisseau who was heavily involved in producing, marketing and distribution of hundreds and hundreds of fakes. A legacy of crime, fraud and multi generational deceptions. Disgusting. 

Gabe and Michelle Vadas - Both of them guilty of lying to the art buying public for hiding their involvement in creating, working on and finishing hundreds of socalled Morrisseau originals. Defrauding hundreds of collectors and institutions worldwide. A disgrace beyond imagination. Gabe Vadas serving Morrisseau as his sexual pimp acquiring homeless boys off the streets of Vancouver. Utterly disgraceful individuals. Perverting the authenticity in our woodland school of art.

Kinsmen Robinson gallery - Shut down permanently for a year now. Forever disgraced for selling fakes to the Canadian art buying public. Mostly the Phil Cote fakes and the black drybrush garbage. Guilty of manipulating hundreds of collectors as they were the primary dealer of the Vadas sourced socalled Morrisseau’s. 

Maslak McLeod gallery - Shut down permanently a decade ago. Guilty of selling the black drybrush fakes along with the Phil Cote sourced fakes throughout the 1990’s. A national disgrace.

Art world of Sherway - Run by Donna Child who sold dozens of fake Morrisseau art being backed by Wolf Morrisseau and the now deceased Christian Morrisseau. It’s a national disgrace. Permanently shut down. 

Art cube gallery - Was run by disgraced dealer Sunny Kim. Sold various waves of Morrisseau fakes. Permanently shut down.

Bearclaw gallery - Sold fake Morrisseau art (the black drybrush fakes) sourced through Gary Lamont

Bremner & Bremner - Recently, director of gallery Paul was arrested and charged for selling fakes and creating false provenance. 

Eagle spirit gallery in Vancouver - Rob Scott knowingly selling the fake Morrisseau (black drybrush garbage) 

Qualicum artworks gallery - Ran by disgraced former owner and fake Morrisseau art dealer in Marlowe Goring Its been permanently shut down.

David Voss - Recently arrested and charged as one of the architects of the fraud from Thunder Bay ont.

Jeff Cowan - Recently arrested and charged for being involved in the art fraud 

Jim White - Again recently arrested and charged for being a major player in the art fraud. His business called White distribution is heavily involved. On many levels including copyright fraud.

Randy Potter - forever disgraced fake Morrisseau art dealer who ran one of the biggest scams in art fraud history called: Potter auctions. It’s been permanently shut down and exposed. Randy Potter? Dead.

Ugo Matulic - Disgraced Fake Morrisseau art dealer and proponent. Had a blog called norvalmorrisseau.blogspot.com which has been permanently removed and destroyed along with his credibility. Good riddance. 

Joe Otavnik - Forever disgraced fake Morrisseau art collector. A fuckin nobody in the art world.

John and Joan Goldi - Forever disgraced fake Morrisseau art collectors. Ran a website called Morrisseau hoax exposed. It’s been permanently shut down and destroyed along with their credibility. Done. 

Michael Moniz - Forever disgraced fake Morrisseau art collector. Died over a decade ago. Done.

John Zemanovich and wife - sold me out and lied to me about gallery representation with Raven art gallery. Betrayed me and chose to sell paintings I gifted them because they were too impatient to work out financial situations between us. John was a former apprentice who is now working with a lawyer named Jonathan Sommer under the guise “Morrisseau art consulting”. It’s fuckin gross really. 

Ritchie stardreamer Sinclair - a white cultural appropriator who lives in denial of the real truth concerning his delusional obsession with our woodland school and the reality of Morrisseau being a sexual predator on children. It’s disgusting how phoney this guy actually is. Gross.

Cory ding dong Dingle - newly hired bitch monkey of the Norval Morrisseau estate. A liar and cheat. Someone I once trusted who ended up being a complete scum bag bullshitter. Fuckin weak and cowardly and one who believes in homogenizing. Pure white settler mentality. 

James McCue - a white cultural appropriator who painted backgrounds for Morrisseau but now thinks it’s simply ok to insult our artform with his shady philosophy and homogenizing. White settler thinking, really.

Rod and Vic waters - These 2 are a husband and wife duo who are perhaps the sickest and worst racists I’ve ever had the unfortunate experience of running into. Absolutely disgusting people who grossed me out beyond belief. It’s hard to realize that there are truly sick people who live this way on our stolen Indian land. Ugly and gross personalities who should be arrested and charged with racism crimes.

Janet Spicer - a dysfunctional stolen land occupier who betrayed my family and lied to us. A colonizer who has no idea about the genocide of my people. A denier of truth. Disgusting. 

Lysse Paqette - a compulsive liar who deceived my family and chose to spread misinformation on me and got caught. A highly unstable personality who knows absolutely nothing about truth and reconciliation. 

Kurtis Staven - a complete piece of shit who stole my former website and intellectual property. A pretendian who came into my life as a chronic liar, manipulator and outright bullshitter. A toothless rat who deserves what’s coming to him. What a fuckin joke of a human being. 

In the spirit of truth and reconciliation let these accounts of my experience and investigations stand the test of time. Not one of these corrupt bastards could ever bring themselves to apologize for their behaviours and actions. It is perhaps the darkest chapters over the last 2 decades of my life. All of these people are individuals in whom I deeply regret ever meeting. They simply couldn’t be honest either with me or themselves. They are the spiritually bankrupt. The broken souls of society. The fuckin snakes in the grass. They hide amongst the people pretending to have your best interests only to be exposed for the rotten pieces of shit they are who hide in the shadows as opportunists. Thinking only of themselves and their hidden agendas. Manipulating those in whom they come into contact with. Be warned and be careful. Not everybody you meet, has your back.

More to come...all my relations, MAJ

Disclosure of some personal revelations of truth here @ Jacobson native art


 Good morning to each and everyone and I have been in a deep place of transformation ever since I left Vancouver in 2017 and headed out to the Kootenay mountains. The reality of the vastness of space, power and quiet inspiration out here has absolutely changed my point of view and perceptions about many things. I’ve had tons of time out here to reflect on the cultural fabric of this country, the realities of surviving genocide, being a 60’s scoop survivor, escaping death, battling the disease of alcoholism (been sober now for over 23 years and counting). 

Being heavily involved in the rebirthing of myself as a true Anishanabe soul, sovereign from Canada and the Queen of England, truly. My identity as a real version of a freeman on my land. I am governed by the Creator first, my ancestry, 7 sacred grandfather teachings and the experience in who I am in relation to this and through my own lense. As much as the occupier in Canada and their so-called rule of law which is founded on genocide in actuality, I am free to live my life governed by these principles which supersede the rule of law. These are universal source codes in reality. Applicable to all human beings. This is a spiritual perspective that really shows the way to what real freedom is for us Anishanabe. I know Canada doesn’t want me to see this truth for me and my people, but sorry to say to them, it is our ways which must come first. This is what you have tried to kill in me. This is what you have tried to strip from me, my voice, my truth, my identity, my power. 

The real truth of my real fight has been in establishing who I really am. My own views and experiences throughout my life and telling it truthfully, no sugar coating, raw and real from a true First Nations and indigenous lense. This is my voice speaking up, speaking truth to power. Exposing these crimes against humanity and pointing my arrows where they ought to be pointed. I’m absolutely fuckin disgusted to tell you the truth and I make no bones about my dissatisfaction with my abuser in Canada. This country owes us trillions and trillions of dollars, let alone all the land and resource thefts, cultural artifacts being stolen, etc. It’s so gross about how the majority of white settlers don’t even know the real history of how this country came to be. What a disgrace to the fallen...many of them had no fuckin clue either that they were all that deceived. But these residential school children are showing us some things that this country has tried to deny and tuck away into the past, somewhere non existent.

But they speak and speak they will continue to do. I too will continue to speak and to tell it as it is. Unfiltered much like the Canadian media cannot do because of how fucked up that whole industry truly is. Mostly parasites and maggots feasting on the pain and misery of others who get paid for that. I don’t get paid by anyone here. Only by the truth do I get to see more and get paid. It’s more of a spiritual thing for me seeing things on the upper plains, middle plains and lower plains. Laws of spirit. Other than this, I don’t give a shit about Canadian media at all. Most of it is pretty useless information and at the end of the day, I don’t need any of it. I am my own media. I am the truth of my experience. My lense is purely from an indigenous point of view. It’s as simple as that..

The same can be said of being recognized by this country for all the good I’ve done concerning the reality of getting directly involved in saving the lives of numerous sexual assault victims, helping to facilitate justice for them by getting their abuser arrested, charged and put into a federal penitentiary for 5 years. I know, not nearly enough time as he has always been not only the chief suspect of this Morrisseau art fraud,  but he is also the main suspect of the murder of Scott Dove in Thunder Bay back in 1984. It’s still an unsolved murder, even now. These guys have been wanting to deal with Gary Lamont up there for years, but it took Indians to get the job done. Even up until this very day nobody from Thunder Bay never thanked me for getting involved in not only saving the lives of these victims/survivors and helping to remove a serial rapist from their streets. Not once...

So, things like medals, awards, the order of Canada, etc mean absolutely fuckin nothing to me. I simply dont care. It’s a lot like being awarded from your sexual abuser. It’s bad enough that no one from the AFN gave me any support or help or anything. I had to do it on my own. From the money of paintings that I sold of my art. That’s how I flew to Thunder Bay to help everyone there, on several occasions. I didn’t realize it at the time but surely all these years later, my ancestors have shown me that it was the order of the Anishanabe that I was producing. Putting things back in order from our way, our perspective. Setting the record straight. For future generations. 

Once again I feel extremely grateful for the process of awakening and decolonization. I believe in my people make no mistake about that. But we are a long long way from meaningful change and truth and reconciliation. Over 500+ years of surviving genocide will take its toll on anyone, let alone a nation of people who identify as First Nations. Even though I have seen so much pain and suffering and have had to illuminate so much darkness, I feel I have come a long long way. A few years ago I finally applied for my indian status. I was obviously hesitant for all the reasons I’ve shared around this genocide of my people and even in me, trying to wipe me out, my family bloodline, to bleed the Indian out of me. I have survived this far. Still here and still present fighting the good fight for not only my people but people all around the world. 
I’m grateful that this country knows and recognizes my status as being Anishanabe. It is one of the good things I can reflect on with regard to trying to see the progress between our various nations. I feel though that even that in itself is quite backwards and weird. But this is survival of genocide. It isn’t easy navigating these realities. I am a voice for myself, my family bloodline and ancestry. I will continue to be a strong voice for my people, the great Anishanabe.
