The Alberta Sovereignty Act has passed without any meaningful consultations with any of the more than 250,000 Indigenous people living in Alberta. This complete disregard for First Nations people is disrespectful and damaging.

@mishacollins@RandomActsOrg I guess everyone's joking here, but for us NDNs the apocalypse started in 1492. This is my homeland and the fires get worse every year. Not surprised to hear about the storms.
@citizen_rma @mishacollins Been in MV and Florida. Def prefer MV. Got food and sometimes places to crash from the MV immigrants -thank you friends. Got racism in FL.
@kbourhood @Christmaspud @mishacollins Grief is like love, there isn't a limited amount to go around. I'm indigenous Canadian/Amer (border tribe) and we have mixed feelings about this as well, but I find I don't have a lot of energy to hate an old woman who tried to have good intentions and was a product of her time.
Auqatnaaq is a student at Carleton University and sewed a parka to illustrate the history of how Inuit were treated at segregated hospitals and the effects of tuberculosis on Inuit families.

Elmo got the COVID vaccine today, just like Elmo's mommy and daddy! Elmo's daddy had a lot of questions, but Elmo's doctor said the vaccine would help keep Elmo healthy, and all of Elmo's friends and family too! #CaringForEachOther
@Iamwhatiamwhic1 @tamisawyer The people who say "just move" have the privilege to do so. These things aren't obstacles for them and they live with a worldview where they can't understand that there are obstacles for everyone who doesn't have their level of privilege.
CBS News: the mom in Uvalde who police handcuffed, and who ran into the school to rescue her children, says that law enforcement called her with a threat: if she talked to the media about the police response she would face an obstruction of justice charge

@KATUNews He's 82. This is how he channeled his "damn kids on my lawn" tendancies. Its funny and a little nicer than how some old white guys handle their cranky asses. You'all need to relax a little.
@TheThomasFamil1 @CindySchauf @FozzyBearPDX@KOINNews I literally have a tshirt that says Proud Native American and Lactose Intolerant. I'd like to see someone try to milk a wild bison 🤣 Its weird to me that wyte people don't know about this.
@Tazerface16 5/5 So the point is, regardless whether or not it could be done in theory, the reality of instituting a program like that would probably be dragged out so long by its opponents that it wouldn't happen within any sort of useful time frame.
@Tazerface16 2/? An Oregon tribe tried a controversial move a few years ago by starting a marijuana farm on their land and ended up destroying the fields due to legal gray areas and opposition. A move ro provide abortions would probably face the same difficulties
@Tazerface16 4/? This is by design. And its designed as a tool to impede sovereignty. We literally have treaty cases that have been sitting on dockets for decades. The state and federal courts have been given the leeway to simply delay hearing tribal cases for as long as they want.
