INTRODUCTION
The period between March 11 and September 26, 1990 was marked by the confrontation between Mohawk Indians, the Quebec Provincial Police, and the Canadian Armed Forces near Oka. The first barricades were in place in March, and the last torn down in September, with considerable cost and damage to both sides.
The problem started when the courts allowed a controversial and publically challenged Oka plan to develop a their nation and were denied. A consortium of businesses had been trying to buy the land from out under the legs of the Mohawk people then remove them.
Despite being outnumbered by the massive fire power of thousands of army troops, the Mohawks emerged triumphant though trodden, and the land was protected. Even the barbaric aftermath of police brutality and sweeping arrests, the fundamental story which continues to cause tremors amongst Canada's military establishment is that a small band of angry natives held off the army.
