rip steve

you hated our band and made fun of us while we were recording at your studio but you stood for something honest and fair in music and tried to make it a better place in everything you did and there will never be another one like you

Even if they felt like their employment was being threatened by Indigenous fishing, why would they burn down a facility that they’d access and benefit from during the commercial season?

Background on what is happening in Nova Scotia to the Mi’kmaq people

[Joy Henderson (she/her) 🇵🇸 @Joyhenderson78]

If this were happening to white fishers, we'd have a nation day of mourning for the building, a memorial of the lobster spoiled and 70 people would be arrested right now. But because its happening to Indigenous people, we are lucky its made national news.

@taylorsedona Happy birthday!!

[Gabrielle Drolet @gabrielledrolet]

Settlers have been threatening, attacking, and committing arson against Mi’kmaq fishermen for WEEKS while the RCMP has stood idly by. Why is not one outside of Nova Scotia talking about this?? Why have these acts of terrorism not become national news? i feel sick

[Robyn Doolittle @robyndoolittle]

Two Mi’kmaq fishermen say they were followed and barricaded inside by the mob, threatened and saw thousands of pounds of Indigenous-caught lobster destroyed. One said the crowd vandalized his truck and threatened to burn the building down with him inside. https://t.co/fwtKYZ7KLQ

The Quebec Order of Nurses has neither revoked nor suspended the license of the nurse who uttered insults while #JoyceEchaquan lay dying and in visible distress. The number one job of a professional order? To ensure the public’s protection.
