Get Off Our Territory: Wet suwet en Land Defenders Condemn Canadian Police Raid on Pipeline Protest
Canadian police continue to arrest Indigenous land defenders blocking construction of Coastal GasLink, a 400mile pipeline that would carry natural gas through Wetsuweten land. Police arrested two people Monday for blockading an access road, less than two weeks after arresting more than 30 in a violent raid on Coyote Camp and elsewhere that ended a 56day blockade of a drilling site. We get an update from Wetsuweten land defender Molly Wickham, also known as Sleydo, just released from jail. This is the third time they have come in and raided Wetsuweten territory, says Wickham. Weve never signed any documents to cede our land. , DemocracyNow Democracy Now is an independent global news hour that airs on nearly 1, 400 TV and radio stations Monday through Friday.
