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 in. rights to fish, to keep their sacred land safe, and to be able to use the sacred land for their sun dances. These holdouts were between the First Nations and non-First Nations people, the Oka holdout were the Mohawk people and they were trying to protect their lands from an impending golf course that the town of Oka was about to build. Gustafsen Lake represented the Ts'Peten people and their use of the land for their Sun Dance. The Burnt Church Resistance was the Mi'kmaq people and their use of fishing in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. Each of these resistances had their own story as to why they started, which ultimately led to conflict between First Nations and non-First Nations. Each group fought for what they believed in and for their purpose. The Oka resistance took place between July 1990 and September 1990, the Gustafsen Lake resistance was from August 18 to September 17, 1995, and the Burnt Church resistance took place in 2000. Each of these First Nations resistance had its own causes as to 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 were the Mohawk people fighting for their lands thanks to the expansion of a golf course that the town of Oka was about to build. The Mohawk people had “referred to themselves as Kanienkehaka (flint people)” and are one of the nations of the Six Nations Iroquois Confederacy. The city of Oka was planning to extend the golf course to eighteen holes and they were also planning… middle of paper… a law enforcement action, firearms, trespassing and/or participation in a riot,” Another outcome of the crisis was that “the golf course will not expand into the Pines” (Pertusati, 1997). But the Mohawk people and the government have not yet come to an agreement on the land, “little progress has been made to address it the land rights and nationality issues that caused the Mohawk revolt” (Pertusati, 1997) This outcome was a 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. Gustafsen Lake was another crisis that occurred between First Nation and Non-First Nations people, the Ts'Peten people of this area wanted to practice and perform the Sun Dance on "cemeteries believed to be neighbors and were discovered through visions of Percy Rosette" (Shrubsole, 2011).
