Read my latest for Windspeaker about YINTAH- a film about "fighting back... but the message that we have always wanted people to receive is more about what we're fighting for– our right to be Wet’suwet’en people and govern ourselves on our own land.” #indigenousfilm

A real house of horrors has been found in the basement of the marlborough hotel in Winnipeg. Women's clothing & purses, stained mattresses behind a locked door, a whole bar, and this horrifying door. I'm gonna be having nightmares too. #mmiwg2S

Our latest story from our Indigenous reporters mentorship program is by Pa̱x̱a̱la Desiree Mannila, (Da’naxda’xw). Stewardship, not greed, say Kwakwaka'wakw Gig̲a̲me (Hereditary Chiefs). watershedsentinel.ca/articles/stewa…
On #IndigenousVeteransDay we remember #FirstNations veterans who bravely served. Though many were awarded medals for bravery and gallantry, the reception awaiting those who were able to return home was not the same as non-Indigenous veterans.

VPD Constables don't show up in Bella Bella to participate in the feast for the Heiltsuk members they handcuffed at BMO.... gutless, cowardly and typical....
“Because Heiltsuk protocols do not allow for ppl to stand in place of others, a traditional Apology Ceremony cannot be carried out unless all of those who caused the harm are present. The absence of Constables Wong & Tong would be another hurtful chapter.”
Can we get an inquiry into why Indigenous people don't have clean drinking water? Canada ranks #4 in the world for countries with the most renewable fresh water resources. There are absolutely no excuses for any reserve to be on a boil water advisory today.
This is horrendous. What makes this revelation even worse is that there is mostly silence on mainstream and social media. Thank you for doing this story to protect Indigenous children. This cannot continue. #cdnpoli #racism #sexualabuse #genocide #indigenous #humanrights

Did you know? While Nestlé extracts millions of litres from their land, residents have no drinking water. While residents do without water...Nestlé, the world's biggest bottler, is extracting up to 3.6m litres of water daily from nearby Six Nations treaty land. "Six Nations 1/4

Is WINNIPEG MEDIA really not reporting that Indigenous Leaders believe a human trafficking op was being run in the basement of Marlborough Hotel? Are journalists up here really this fucking stupid? Or is it the powerful covering for the powerful again? x.com/KarlGowenlock/…
2. Most of these protestors seem to believe that the video is evidence of a human-trafficking operation in the basement of the Marlborough. 3. A group of protestors stormed the basement of the Hotel to search for evidence and trashed the place. Kinda relevant, no? 2/2
@WabKinew are you looking into the human traff1cking that took/ is taking place at the Marlborough hotel in Winnipeg? @ctvwinnipeg @WinnipegNews @globalwinnipeg
I guess it's appropriate that the Marlborough Hotel story is breaking as we're talking about celebrating Winnipeg's 150th birthday. Shows nothing has really changed.
it’s sick what people do to indigenous women literally a hotel in my city was found trafficking indigenous women after a video went viral on facebook (the hotel is called the marlborough hotel)
Also before anyone argues AMC waited for police to investigate. Ofc police “didnt” find anything so now AMC has since cut ties with the Marlborough hotel. And started their own investigation right after
The shit they found in the basement of the Marlborough Hotel in Winnipeg today is bone chilling. It is terrifying being an Indigenous woman in this country. I’m so tired, man.
Indigenous leaders, community members rallied in Winnipeg, demanding change after a video surfaced showing a distressed First Nation's woman restrained at the Marlborough Hotel.
hopefully done with this thread, i possibly wont give anymore updates as this is just taking a toll on me, please share this, get this pathetic excuse of a hotel shut down, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
i have found other photos but again they will be flagged so view at your own discretion
OPEN YOUR EYES stop trying to silence us im sharing these to share the truth, what these people are trying to hard to hide, what the police are trying to hide we want answers, we want our people to come home or atleast get a proper burial
REUPLOAD cause when i posted the photos were unflagged
REUPLOAD after this video went viral police did NOTHING, there was a protest where the community wanted answers in the video people are seen questioning one of the workers, and the worker is caught lying the link is the full video to this video facebook.com/share/v/cTPmED…
im not sure what had happened after this video but afterwards around 3 pm cst time there was a livestream where a group of the protest went down into the basement where they found a full functioning bar that was closed to the public underneath the bar was another basement
warning the photos you are about to see is disturbing and have been taken from the stream, if you wish not to see these photos turn away now the link here takes you to the full video facebook.com/share/v/mpiYgz…
