Canada’s Royal Canadian Mounted Police are using the same tactics on First Nations people that the USA and Canada use on their foes in war. It’s a war on First Nation water and land defenders. ricochet.media/en/3980/traini…
(1/5) BREAKING: First Nations mother facing apprehension of newborn daughter by Ministry of Children and Family Development (MCFD) at the Victoria General Hospital. There is currently a campaign to keep baby with her family: change.org/p/stop-the-b-c…

BREAKING: #BabyAmella has been apprehended. I interviewed the mother & father today as she was pumping breast milk for her daughter in the NICU. These parents love their baby and now she will lose her sacred connection to her birth parents #birthalert @Dave_Eby @MitziDeanBC
The reporter captures the anger, absurdity of her prolonged refusal to leave office after being ousted, and this punitive measure intended as punishment for defying her ousted dictatorship-style government. langleyadvancetimes.com/news/anger-as-…
Shameful and unwelcomed bullying from the same group, all over again.
We are incredibly honoured to have welcome posts carved by Sts’ailes Master Carver Gary Leon and Kwantlen Master Artist Brandon Gabriel unveiled at several of our schools in the coming weeks. Read more: surreyschools.ca/_ci/p/146350 #sd36learn #SurreyBC #WhiteRockBC #reconciliation

The Kwantlen First Nation Band Council calls for @GCIndigenous and Minister @PattyHajdu to intervene to prevent further acts of political violence on the Kwantlen reserve. kwantlen.community/news/kwantlens…
Excellent deep dive into the leadership controversy in the Kwantlen First Nation. Indigenous Services Canada clearly is not being neutral, and is encouraging an ousted Chief to still believe her position is safe, when the people have chosen otherwise. fvcurrent.com/article/kwantl…
Fun fact, many indigenous homes were never viewed by building inspectors. This means there are structural and safety issues with furnaces, wood stoves and electrical design. For members, this means their house doesn’t always stay warm in these cold conditions.

It's about time. Let's not forget that Mission RCMP would not have done this, had it not been for the hard push by witnesses and victims and their advocates to ensure justice be done. cbc.ca/news/canada/br…

Our neighbors have these giant mushrooms in their yard (it’s mushroom season in Vancouver). They are neat. This concludes my show and tell for the day.
@jslevek @georgiavrakas I get you. But I'm not the leader of a colonial government. I'm an employee in a system imposed on me and built on my territory--in which I played no role. And I don't coddle colonial institutions--I speak out against them, rather than in their support (as he is doing).
Today, I was arrested in front of the @WhiteHouse as an act of peaceful civil disobedience. I was (& am) demanding @POTUS exercise an act of executive clemency to release our relative #LeonardPeltier from federal prison. 48 years he’s been locked up. #FreeLeonardPeltier
@PrairieScribe If you were a camera, would you want to get closer to them?
I asked Klasom Satlt'xw Losah, or Grandma Rose Henry to many, a Coast Salish social activist from the Tla'amin Nation if she had a message for industry logging old growth in the Fairy Creek Watershed.
