Today as we arrive in Wet’suwet’en Territory, we join the Wet’suwet’en Land Defenders and demand an end to the CGL Pipeline and the state violence that accompanies it.
“This is Gidimt’en territory! Get off our land!”
We pray for the sacred land of Oak Flat.
We pray for those who survived residential school.
We demand that the Mi’kmaq are able to enact their treaty rights unimpeded by settler violence or state bureaucracy.
Reconciliation is currently dead in this country, so no toppled statue can create a setback.
The protection of the earth is being waged in the face of a massive corporate counterinsurgency campaign that uses the police, state government, and manipulated public opinion to repress dissent and target the Indigenous population.
CPT supports the Apache Stronghold to protect Chich’il Bildagoteel, sacred land also known as Oak Flat.
Pray that the Enbridge Corporation, law enforcement, and private security forces: respect the Treaties, acknowledge harm, and repent from their oppressive ways.
Solidarity with Wet’suwet’en!
