Ipperwash Land Expropriation : Hell of a Deal (1989) - The Fifth Estate

In 2015 The Chippewas of Kettle and Stony Point First Nation accepted a $95-million dollar financial settlement which also included the return of land appropriated by the federal government in 1942. The land was formally returned in 2016. But it was a decades-long battle that the fifth estate first documented back in 1989. In “Hell of a Deal” Bob McKeown examines the federal government’s expropriation of land from the Stoney Point Band in south Western Ontario in 1942. Using powers under the War Measures Act the federal government took the land and created Military Camp Ipperwash, relocating the Indigenous community to nearby Kettle Point. In the late ‘80s and early ‘90s members of the Stony Point First Nation began to pressure for the return of the Ipperwash lands, culminating with the occupation of nearby Ipperwash Provincial Park in September of 1995. Dubbed the “Ipperwash Crisis” two days after it began, unarmed protester Dudley George was killed by an OPP sniper during a raid on the protesters' camp. --- Subscribe for more videos from The Fifth Estate : http://bit.ly/25W8cpn Connect with The Fifth Estate online : Website : http://bit.ly/1d0FBxq Facebook : http://bit.ly/1UO9B8S Twitter : http://bit.ly/237VM8P Instagram : http://bit.ly/25W8SLs About the fifth estate : For four decades The Fifth Estate has been Canada's premier investigative documentary program.
