@InvertEvo @SallyLeys @FrenchieLaRoo @EvoEmbryo Devastating news. I absolutely adored her. Having a hard time taking it in.

The work that the Dene Tha’ First Nation is doing to protect Bistcho Lake is so important. The area should be formally protected as an Indigenous Protected and Conserved Area! Check out the proposal at https://t.co/eBTsXaxabR!
