Anishinabekwe grandmother, mother, protector of water & land. Soap maker. Climate change is my lens on life so that the next 7 generations will have a future.
@JeromeFosterII I became an activist because I am connected to the land and water and any extraction and exploitation is a violent incursion on my history, culture, Elders, language which impacts my ability to survive and the next 7 generations going forward.
@JustinTrudeau I remember when you were voted in as Prime Minister. You went to the LRT and shook hands with people walking by using and rushing to work. I thought that was really great. If I had been in Ottawa, I would have liked that opportunity.
All the best in your next stage of life.
A former oil and gas executive has been appointed as the new CEO of the Alberta Energy Regulator, which is responsible for overseeing industry and protecting the environment. This raises serious conflicts of interest, as the regulator has failed to properly address issues like toxic spills, contaminated water, and high cancer rates in the Indigenous community of Fort Chipewyan.

Demand accountability.
Because clean water and human lives should matter more than corporate profits.

Dr. @Tanyaalih briefs UNSC:
“After the 🇮🇱 military raided the hospital people were blindfolded and undressed, patients on crutches were put on the ground as Israeli soldiers took celebratory pictures with healthcare workers in humiliating positions. The hospital was burned down and Dr. Abu Safiya was taken… We are pleading to the world, to the people and states that make up this very body, to show us that international humanitarian law matters, that human rights are universally applied, and to stay true to the very reason that this body was created”
