These resistance movements, Oka, Gustafsen Lake and Burnt Church, each had their own reasons as to why they started and how the First Nations people fought for what they believed. rights to fish, to keep their sacred land secure, and to be able to use the sacred land for their sun dances. These resistances were between First Nations people and non-Natives, the Oka resistance was the Mohawk people and they were trying to protect their land from an imminent golf course that the town of Oka was going to build. Lake Gustafsen was the Ts'Peten people and their use of the land for their sun dance. Burnt Church's resistance was the Mi'kmaq people and their use of fishing in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. These resistances each had their own story as to why they started, which ultimately led to conflict between First Nations and non-Indigenous people. Each group fought for what they believed in and for their own purpose. The Oka resistance took place between July 1990 and September 1990, the Gustafsen Lake resistance took place from August 18 to September 17, 1995 and the Burnt Church resistance took place in 2000. Each of these resistances of First Nations had their own causes, why they started, what happened during the resistance, and what the outcome was, whether they had the right motivations to fight for what they believed in. The Oka resistance was the Mohawk people fighting for their land following the expansion of a golf course that the town of Oka was going to build. The Mohawk people "called themselves Kanienkehaka (people of the flint)" and are one of the nations of the Six Nations Iroquois Confederacy. The town of Oka planned to expand the gold course to eighteen holes and also planned...... middle of paper ......ion of justice, guns, violations and/or participating in a riot," Another result of the crisis was that "the golf course will not extend to "The Pines" (Pertusati, 1997). But the Mohawk people and the government will not still failed to reach agreement on the land issue: “little progress has been made to resolve the land rights and nation issues that sparked the Mohawk uprising” (Pertusati, 1997). good thing for the Mohawk people because the land cannot be turned into a golf course and they can keep it sacred and protect it Gustavsen Lake was another crisis that had occurred between the First Nation people and the non. -residents, the Ts'Peten people of this region had wanted to practice and do their sun dance on "cemeteries that were believed to be close to them and which were discovered thanks to the visions of Percy Rosette" (Shrubsole., 2011).
