We can do it! Ask candidates what they personally have done to implement the TRC Calls to Action and to stop the feds fighting fairness and justice for First Nations kids and residential school survivors in court.

Jesus fucking Christ! Now we have fire clouds creating lightning? We're literally setting the planet on fire. Good fucking luck to all the creatures occupying this planet! Fire clouds spark 710,117 lightning strikes in western Canada in 15 hours https://t.co/OYn5rE3sfO

No surprise here from Lethbridge. Neighbors to "Canada's" largest First Nation will be celebrating the genocide and history of Canada, rather than take a step back and reflect on the injustices of Residential Schools

[Lethbridge News Now @lethnewsnow]

62% of respondents to our latest #LNNPoll plan to celebrate #CanadaDay. 35% of the 269 respondents said they won’t be celebrating. 3% were unsure. #LNN #YQL

The way you've most likely treated Indigenous people for years/decades is a key component of colonization.

If you are expressing shock, outrage & concern in learning of Indigenous experiences today, it's a good time to meditate on how you've treated Indigenous ppl in your workplaces, communities & online & how you can atone & treat Indigenous ppl w/ respect rather than contempt.

Lethbridge and Southern Alberta is 💯 % Blackfoot Territory and has been since time immemorial!

[94.1 CJOC @cjocfm]

Dr. Adam Browning, President of the Métis Nation of Alberta for Lethbridge and area says Métis people make up one-third of the Indigenous population in Lethbridge "This is Blackfoot territory, but this is also the homeland of the Métis.” #YQL https://t.co/XLavSumjiV

They were asked to vote on stopping litigation against First Nations children and residential school survivors. They chose not to show up or to abstain. Remember them.

Keystone XL is cancelled. This is great news for the climate, Indigenous rights and water protectors. TC Energy is walking away from the project and looking towards opportunities in renewable energy.

Fun Fact: When Kenney was the Parliamentary Secretary to the PM, he helped orchestrate $700M in new equalization payments for Quebec (trying to buy seats, electorally speaking), that they used to lower taxes. #AbLeg

Watch the PM's statement in the House of Commons today saying the government is not fighting First Nations children in court https://t.co/5hZkeTudP9 My response: Watch the hearings on Monday- see fed. applications below https://t.co/Jg91tVLGOj

[Cindy Blackstock @cblackst]

Here are Canada's two applications for Judicial Review being heard Monday June 14-18, 2021 starting at 9:30

[Cindy Blackstock @cblackst]

A report commissioned by Canada in 2005 found a 30% gap in First Nations child welfare funding = First Nations children in care at higher rates than residential schools. On Monday- Canada will try to overturn a compensation order for the children it harmed by ignoring the problem

The cops made my aunties turn around. All to ensure the efficiency of logging on the territory. They may as well be private security for resource extraction.

[samantha @samanthas4u]

RCMP blocking a caravan of Nuu Chah Nulth relatives from accessing the territory. I can’t believe it’s 2021 and the cops get to decide when and how Indigenous people access our own land.
