Letter from Chief Te Kapilano of the Squamish Nation
March 1, 2005
I, Chief Te Kapilano of the Squamish Nation: excersise my inherent right from the Creator
I, issue a Royal Decree for John Graham (Shadleeta)
I, Chief Te Kapilano state that
John Graham (Shadleeta) is under my territorial protection and trust
That all bail sureties, properties and monies be returned
That his house arrest be lifted, so he can work
That the daily report to the police station, be once a week
John Graham (Shadleeta) has assured me, he is not a flight risk and wants to see justice prevail for Annie Mae Pictou Maloney Aquash
To assure this
I, Chief Te Kapilano, excersise my inherent right from the Creator
To call a tribunal to look at all aspects of the case
Order in Council (UK) 9 March 1704
Sublimus Deus 1537 (papal bull)*
Chief Te Kapilano
* Note by the John Graham Defense Committee: In 1537, Pope Paul III published the encyclical Sublimis Deus, which declared the natives of the New World to be rational beings with souls who must not be enslaved or robbed.
