Third Shoe

In human social relations there are rules of engagement, retrenchment, acquiesence, submission, and humiliation.

The Papal Bulls of "Terra Nullius" in the 1400s were a declaration of authority by a corporate body - The Church Of Rome. And, these shackles are not unlike the contemporary regimes of governments and conglomerate business enterprises that span the globe today with an ethic that seeks to direct human choice through only one portal - theirs !

Preserving and protecting the right of independent choice is the pinnacle expression of good human ethic - and, it is worthy of the sacrifice of personal comfort and convenience in order to entrench its existence.

The hierarchical regimes of Western Europe have left - like so many other monoliths from around the world over the ages - a legacy of continuing grief for later generations to comprehend and resolve {or, ignore}.

Like it or not, the Christian Church, as a corporate body, has entrenched a policy and practise that will not find demise without admission of guilt - and, there is a guilt to be admitted.

The above, and, following matters are written by a practising Christian; who is also a steward in his church community - as well as being a civil rights advocate, who admonishes the church and state for their collaboration in this continuing policy of lies and deceit in the matters of any resolution policies toward ameliorating and compensating for the continuing legacies of third world refugee camps that have been installed throughout North America - and, which we call native reserves.

And, in particular, he finds significant fault with the legal profession in its manner of representation of the clients as claimants against Church and State.

But, such may not be the convenient case. And, soon !

In Canada { and, generally, throughout the world } there are remnants & prevailing policies.

The principles of indigenous peoples and Crown Land in Canada and BC / ANAC-INAC - Status / Indian Act -1876 {addendum & Act} / Indian Act 1985 {anic-inac : terra nullius noted }– {Henderson} / Related Issues to Indian Act(s) / Land Registry / Land Management Manual & Manual - etc / Claims / Certificates of Possession : section 20 ; Ryerson 2005 {wills} {Office of Commissioner for Federal Judicial Affairs} {Turtleisland-Royal Roads} / Location Tickets & Dept of Justice ; / locatees : definitions : Henderson { land allocation: Indian Act 1927 } are directly related to – and, in sequence of :
· The Papal Bulls : (1) 1455 Romanus Pontifex and (2) Inter Caetera 1493
· The Church of England ( 597 ) Augustine : (1) Act of Supremacy 1534 {etc} and (2) Act of Supremacy 1559 {etc; etc}
· Terra Nullius arises as a colonial practice directly from these historical ledgers, supra
· The United Nations World Conference on Racism (2001) {Canada} noted the injustices that have arisen through the application of policies specifically by church and state in these matters of indigenous lands Traditional and contemporary colonialism thrives upon three principle factors: Investment ; Influence; and, Military .

The TOUCHSTONE Committee <since 1975> as an established international organization, strives to generate a forum for the rules of natural justice {fairness and equity}. It is an NGO.

Abuse of authority - or, claimed authority through corruption, deceit, or fraud - creates a public need for recompense. TC75 utilizes the Third Shoe as its entity of investigations, report management; and, due diligence. The Power of One, wherein, society embraces the commitment to survive in an ethical way because each individual is a critical mass of the unified whole : public interest prevails in an environment where one and infinity are equal values : the mobius loop.

The Third Shoe - as an integral factor within TC75 - assembles due diligence information; which is reviewed by a specific issues TOUCHSTONE Committee panel; who, then formulates a declaration of action.

Emile Zola, in publishing the Dreyfus Affair in his open letter, wrote of human dignity and the administration of justice as being founded upon a duty to the citizenry; generally, remembered as "J'accuse!"

And, in pursuing a sense of public justice, TC75 brings forward a phalanx of legal scholars and humanists; who strategize with our committee heads on the matters of political, economic and social reformation. TOUCHSTONE, then, commences a series of actions.

So, what is this thing about "The Third Shoe" ? And, why should anyone be interested in its agenda ?

Well, when things don't get resolved in an acceptable, humane manner, The Third Shoe becomes a provocateur of acceptable settling of the score, as it were.

The Third Shoe becomes a public advocate for change in policy for "the good of the whole".

And, therein, lies the rub.

Generally, the public wishes these uncomfortable issues to whither on the vine; and, to never bear the fruit of recompense.

The average citizen cannot identify with the continuing harm and prejudice that smolders and flames from the charred legacies of Terra Nullius.

And, certainly, the Church and Government are prepared to continue their mutual conspiracies that are designed to be less against resolution, and, more toward exhaustion of the issues.
