Open Meeting for the Indigenous Peoples' Solidarity Movement - Ottawa

The IPSM Ottawa is a local, grassroots indigenous solidarity collective
that supports indigenous struggles for justice and decolonization.

We have been organizing in Ottawa for the past 8 years and have done, and
do, solidarity organizing with Six Nations land defenders, the Algonquins
of Barriere Lake, organizing to secure justice for missing and murdered
women, girls, two-spirits and their families, and many other communities,
campaigns and issues.

*Basis of Unity / Base d'unité*

The Indigenous Peoples Solidarity Movement - Ottawa (IPSMO) is a
grassroots organization that directly supports indigenous peoples in
diverse struggles for justice. We also work within communities to
challenge the lies and half-truths about indigenous peoples and
colonization that dominate Canadian society. The organization is open to
both indigenous and non-indigenous people, and focuses on local and
regional campaigns.

As we act in solidarity with indigenous people, we build relationships
where we can learn from indigenous cultures. By doing this, we can further
decolonize ourselves, and so learn to better challenge the racist and
colonial ideas that dominate Canadian society.

We provide support to actions and campaigns for Indigenous sovereignty,
self-determination, defense of the land, environmental protection,
cultural revitalization, and the honouring of treaties and agreements.

----------------------------------

Le Mouvement de Solidarité avec les Peuples Autochtones -Ottawa (Abrégé en
anglais: IPSMO) est une organisation populaire qui soutient directement
les peuples autochtones dans leurs diverses luttes pour la justice. Nous
travaillons au sein des communautés afin de débattre les mensonges et
demi-vérités concernant les peuples autochtones et l'esprit de
colonisation qui dominent dans la société canadienne. Cette organisation
est ouverte à tous : aux personnes autochtones tout comme aux personnes
non-autochtones, et mène une campagne concentré à un niveau local et
régional.

En agissant solidairement avec les peuples autochtones, nous construisons
des relations d'échanges où nous pouvons apprendre de leur culture. En
faisant de même, nous pouvons mieux nous décoloniser nous même, et ainsi
mieux contester et combattre les idées racistes et colonialistes qui
dominent la société canadienne.

Nous soutenons les actions et campagnes pour la souveraineté autochtone,
son autodétermination, la défense du territoire, la protection
environnementale, la revitalisation culturelle, et l'application des
traités et accords.
