AKWESASNE – In May of 2009 massive community opposition to the presence of armed border guards forced the Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA) to abandon the customs house in the Kanienkehaka territory of Akwesasne. Since then the building has been sitting empty and unused. A group of grassroots activists organized by Stacey Boots of Akwesasne are planning to change that later this month.
