Les engagements de @HydroQuebec sont vagues et ignorent les dommages déjà causés aux communautés #autochtones. La #réconciliation doit tenir compte du passé. @ntesinan #pastdueensouffrance #premieresnations https://t.co/pCeB1VZTdN

@HydroQuebec’s commitments are vague and ignore the damages already caused to #Indigenous communities. Reconciling harm means fully addressing the past. @ntesinan #pastdueensouffrance #firstnations

@HydroQuebec made tens of billons of dollars from flooded Innu lands, and the best they can offer is platitudes? To be good corporate citizens, they need to do better. @ntesinan #pastdueensouffrance #indigenousrights #FirstNations

[PastDue-EnSouffrance @50YearsPastDue]

@HydroQuébec promet d'élaborer "une stratégie d’approvisionnement auprès d’entreprises #autochtones." Les vagues promesses ne suffisent pas. Les #Innus du Labrador exigent des engagements fermes, de la transparence et de la responsabilité. @ntesinan https://t.co/WIUhU4Xmcr

[PastDue-EnSouffrance @50YearsPastDue]

@HydroQuebec is promising to “Develop a procurement strategy with #Indigenous companies.” Vague promises are not enough. #Innu of Labrador demand firm commitments, transparency, and accountability. @ntesinan #pastdueensouffrance #firstnations https://t.co/xPuwcvLero

[PastDue-EnSouffrance @50YearsPastDue]

This is not a “game of snakes and ladders” to the people of Maine or to the #Innu, Madame Brochu. The days of intimidation by big money are over. #qcpoli @ntesinan https://t.co/LcizL0ZJxX via @mtlgazette

[PastDue-EnSouffrance @50YearsPastDue]

Innu Nation applauds the people of Maine for taking a strong stance against @HydroQuebec. Bullies shouldn’t always win. #Innu #mepoli @qcpoli @ntesinan https://t.co/VQy3ynW1l8 via @CTVMontreal

Canada says it has no duty to consult with #Innu Nation @ntesinan on a rate mitigation with #NL deal that robs Innu of benefits promised in #MuskratFalls agreement. Colonialism is alive and well.

[Innu Nation @ntesinan]

Canada's position in court is a remarkable statement from a @liberal_party incumbent government that said it is committed to respecting the principles of #UNDRIP. #UNDRIP is important in the context of the #ratemitigation deal and #IndigenousRights #Innu #cdnpoli #nlpoli #Elxn44

[Innu Nation @ntesinan]

In court - after the @liberal_party replied to Innu Nation's questionnaire about #UNDRIP - Canada agreed with @GovNL's position that the Crown can unilaterally undermine an IBA w/ no duty to consult & only recourse is to sue for damages.#cdnpoli #nlpoli #Elxn44 #IndigenousRights

[Innu Nation @ntesinan]

An immediate, serious issue of concern to Innu Nation is the rate mitigation deal for which the Supreme Court of Newfoundland and Labrador is expected to hand down a decision next week, September 20 - 24. #RateMitigation #IndigenousRights #Innu #cdnpoli #nlpoli #Elxn44

[Innu Nation @ntesinan]

Very hard to see how @liberal_party @nlliberals position squares with #Reconciliation. In court they say no duty to consult & only recourse is to take them to court. Flies in the face of their reply to our questionnaire. Check it out at https://t.co/3KLs349AGU #cdnpoli @nlpoli

Go to https://t.co/3KLs349AGU to see responses to important questions asked by Innu Nation of all party leaders & NL candidates in the federal election. #CdnPoli #NLPoli #Elxn44 #RateMitigation #HumanRights #UNDRIP @CdnHumanRights

[Innu Nation @ntesinan]

For #Innu, this is not just about money. It’s about trust. How much faith can we put in the agreements we sign with the Crown? Trust, when so severely broken, may never be earned back @CanadianPM @PremierofNL #FirstNations #IndigenousRights #Reconciliation #cdnpoli #NLpoli

[Peter Morris @PmorrisPeter]

@CBCMarkQuinn Aren’t this judge’s statement and the feds’ response cold and inaccurate interpretations? Money aside, the Innu have been clear that they should be actively involved in any deals in this matter, and not an obliquely involved entity that is only informed after the fact.

[Innu Nation @ntesinan]

.@PremierofNL @Canadian_PM the #ratemitigation announcement was July 28 - court concluded Sept 17. #Innu have remained willing to work this out. https://t.co/8qEhyqpwug

[Innu Nation @ntesinan]

Hope is necessary for #Innu youth to thrive. Projects like #MuskratFalls were sanctioned by Innu Nation to not only create opportunities but to be a part of development on our land. When our role as an #Indigenous govt is diminished our youth are further marginalized. #CdnPoli

[Innu Nation @ntesinan]

Irreparable harm happens when #FirstNations negotiate what they think are good deals & governments can say what you signed doesn’t matter. It creates a legacy of mistrust with repercussions decades out for #Indigenous relations. #CdnPoli #NLPoli #ratemitigation #Innu

[nancyfjorde.bsky.social @nancyfordephoto]

“Canada and N.L.'s "actions send the message loud and clear that you do not care about the #Innu, and that you think you can stab us in the back and we won’t do anything,” says @ntesinan Grand Chief Etienne Rich.” #cdnpoli

[Innu Nation @ntesinan]

.@kairoscanada joined with #Innu and over 330 #FirstNations across the country in a call for @PremierofNL @FureyAndrew @Canadian_PM @JustinTrudeau to respect #IndigenousRights in the #RateMitigation deal. Our governments must respect #UNDRIP #cdnpoli #nlpoli #Elxn44
