Radio Free Kanata with Kevin Annett and cohost Ryan Gable

Kevin D. Annett (Eagle Strong Voice) is a Nobel Peace Prize nominee (2014). A Canadian writer and former minister of the United Church of Canada, he produced the award winning documentary film Unrepentant in 2007. He has authored four books: Love and Death in the Valley (2002), Hidden No Longer: Genocide in Canada, Past and Present (2010), Unrepentant: Disrobing the Emperor (2010, O Books) and the just released novel Samuel Wedge: Memoir of Necropolis (2015, Authorhouse).

His persecution by the Canadian establishment over his persistent, selfless advocacy for indigenous victims of church and state genocide is an object lesson in the true nature and corruption of Canada and its churches.

In 1990, after obtaining degrees in Anthropology and Political Science at the University of British Columbia, Kevin graduated from the Vancouver School of Theology with a Master of Divinity, and was subsequently ordained by British Columbia Conference of the United Church of Canada. In 1990-1991 he served in churches in rural Manitoba, and in 1991-1992 served at the Fred Victor Mission in Toronto, an outreach street-ministry of The United Church of Canada. He was appointed minister to St. Andrew's United Church in Port Alberni, British Columbia in 1992.

From early in his Alberni ministry Kevin discovered evidence of horrible crimes by his church shared by aboriginal survivors of the notorious “residential school” system.  Giving them a platform from his pulpit, Kevin soon raised the ire of those responsible for the rape and murder of children in these “schools”, inside and outside his church. When he uncovered secret deals involving the theft of west coast native land by the United Church and its corporate benefactors, Kevin was fired without cause and expelled from ministry without due process, between 1995 and 1997. Church officers helped destroy his marriage and have his children taken from him, and defamed and blacklisted him across Canada.

All of this persecution merely fueled Kevin’s determination to bring out the truth of the Canadian genocide. Over the subsequent twenty years, he has made history by bringing out this truth and bringing to trial those responsible, in Canada, London and Rome.

In 2006, Kevin produced a documentary on this topic: Unrepentant: Kevin Annett and Canada's Genocide which won the 2007 award for 'Best Documentary at the Los Angeles International Independent Film & Video Festival.

On 15th June 2010, Kevin Annett helped establish The International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and State, which unites survivors of these crimes in 26 countries. The Tribunal established The International Common Law Court of Justice in September 2012, which successfully prosecuted Pope Benedict, Queen Elizabeth, Stephen Harper, Jorge Bergoglio and others for crimes against humanity.

Kevin was a founding convener of the Republic of Kanata, inaugurated on January 15, 2015, which lawfully replaced “crown” authority and the government and courts of Canada. Along with Katie Stoqua of the Algonquin Nation, Kevin is the host of Radio Free Kanata, which is the official public voice of the new Republic of Kanata.
