🚨 BREAKING: Victory for Wing Chief Sleydo’ (Molly Wickham), Shaylynn Sampson, and Corey Jocko as BC Supreme Court confirms RCMP violated their Charter rights during the 2021 Wet’suwet’en pipeline blockade.

A BC judge found RCMP breached Charter rights during the 2021 Wet’suwet’en pipeline blockade arrests. Justice Tammen ruled that officers made racist comments about sacred Indigenous symbols - specifically mocking Sleydo’ and Shaylynn Sampson for wearing red handprints, which represent missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls.

Justice Tammen ruled RCMP illegally:
- Entered structures without warrants, using chainsaws to break in
- Made racist comments mocking sacred symbols of MMIWG
- Showed “systemic attitudinal issues” within their pipeline enforcement unit (C-IRG)

The court acknowledged this is part of a pattern of systemic racism against Indigenous women in the justice system. While the contempt charges weren’t dropped, the judge ordered reduced sentences due to these serious Charter violations.

This ruling validates what land defenders have been saying all along about racist and illegal police conduct during pipeline enforcement.

While Canadians celebrate Flag Day, let’s remember that flag represents Canada’s use of policy & military force at request of provinces against First Nations to keep stolen First Nations lands, territories & resources under CUSMA, CANDRIP & BCDRIP!
