Mohawks set up camp in Toronto’s High Park A group of Mohawk Warriors has set up camp in a section of High Park, on land it says is a sacred burial site that has been over-run by off-road cyclists. But any similarities to Oka and Caledonia end there; this is more of a public works project than a tension-filled standoff, with city officials providing a portable toilet and a shed for tools, and police insisting the campers “are not protesters.” Councillor Sarah Doucette (Parkdale-High Park), who met with the natives last Tuesday at City Hall, said she is aware of the “sit-in” and is “OK with it.” “The city has had archeologists go and test, they’ve had about 40 test pits, and it does not show it to be a burial mound. However, we realize that the BMX bikes, as great as exercise and fresh air for these kids as it is, we want to return High Park to what it should be,” Ms. Doucette added.
