I woke up this morning thinking it was 23 years ago on July 11th, following failure of Meech Lake Accord—thanx to Elijah Harper—Quebec gov’t retaliated by sending SQ to attack Mohawk Peoples at Kanehsatake & Kahnawakero:non blocking Mercier Bridge in support!

We don’t forget!

In this episode of @GoingnativeTv Drew travels to Canada’s largest urban woodlot to meet with Indigenous carver, “Sawmill Sid.” Later, he visits an Inuk artist and a sculptor who casts their own bronze.

The twisted orthodoxy of modern capitalism - that a strong economy with a confident workforce is "bad".
And that the solution lies in forcing job losses, foreclosures and workers who will be too afraid to demand better.
I call bullshit.

"Dear friends, scientifically, this is not a #ClimateCrisis. We are now facing something deeper. Mass extinction. Air pollution. Undermining ecosystem functions. Really putting humanity’s future at risk. This is a #PlanetaryCrisis."

Dozens of people outside Winnipeg's Brady Road landfill have built barricades and are signalling their unwillingness to leave, despite a noon deadline from the city to vacate the area and the possibility of legal action. https://t.co/FZ6d2WNAYP

A photograph from 1870s Arizona with a caption "Coyotero woman sold by her lord and master for 40 yards manta at Camp Grant". Years after legislation was passed outlawing slavery, Indigenous peoples were still being bought and sold in the US.

The PC gov allowed a private company to charge Manitobans for essential tests and was fined $353,827 for violating the Canada Health Act.

They won’t name the company bc they care more about for profit bottom line than your health & transparency. #mbpoli

Powerful moment as AFN recognizes @connie_walker for her journalism.

Walker dedicates recognition to all residential school survivors and intergenerational survivors.

The neglect from this government around anything related to health care is reprehensible. @AudreyGordonMB and @hstefansonmb have allowed health care in this province to literally rot on the vine.

I agree @WabKinew. This is an international disgrace! Families deserve closure. Families deserve justice.

We have to try to bring their loved ones home — Heather Stefanson made a serious mistake in ruling out any landfill search. If cost is the concern for some, let’s work with the families to consider options other than doing absolutely nothing.

The North American Indigenous Games are set to begin July 16 in Kjipuktuk (Halifax) after being pushed back numerous times due to the pandemic.
