"If you're poor, if you rent a home, if you're a visible minority, if you are Indigenous, you are far less likely to be chosen for jury duty than if you are upper-middle class and a non-visible minority homeowner." https://t.co/7QDHZnwKvC @matthewkupfer

@OlmcPoverty I completely agree, developed countries need to start taking more action in order to help recognize these issues that affect individuals around the world daily!

@Bellerlc This is not fair, many of these children are not being given an oppurtunity to have a childhood, instead they are being forced to work many hours in terrible conditions.

"We need to get outside of... our comfort zone and reach out to Indigenous people and go for a coffee or have them over for dinner. Those kinds of simple human things, I think, are a part of what reconciliation is about." https://t.co/CmULOthGb1 @LenardMonkman1 @jonjournalism

@Indigenousunite I think it is interesting that there is not much opposition considering the damage to nature that will occur when the pipeline is in place, but I also agree that Indigenous Peoples should get stake as it is still their land, and have all rights to it.

"There are people on the committee that come from communities that don't want to see the pipeline constructed, also there are other people on the committee who want to see the pipeline constructed. But where we were able to find common ground..." 1/2
