As RCMP arrived at their gate, a group of women from the healing centre gathered in ceremony to summon ancestors and call out the names of missing and murdered Indigenous women.

A picture that aptly tells the story of Canada’s current relationship w Indigenous ppl: the only “Reconciliation” allowed is what the RCMP allows under its supervision. And if it insists on breaking through, then it’s tossing aside the idea of reconciliation. This is so shameful.
11:21 am - RCMP have landed a helicopter at the bridge and are approaching the gate, more on the way

This continued attack on land defenders, whose rights & claims to the land has never been extinguished, is unconscionable. W/o proper Wet’suwet’en consent, this project isn’t legitimate. This an affront to the UNDRIP, & the BCgov’s silence is deafening. The RCMP must stand down.

8000 people called for York region schools to not allow students w/ family who travelled to China in the last 17 days attend school. There's been a drop in business across Chinatown's restaurants. This should be a time for solidarity—not heightened racism. theglobeandmail.com/canada/a…
