[ISO] TAKE ACTION: 1492 Land Back Lane + Wet'suwet'en + Stop TMX + new petitions, events & resources

[Indigenous Solidarity Ottawa]

Hello everyone, 

We hope you are well and enjoying the summer. Here is a long overdue
email with many online actions you can take. 

Wet'suwet'en solidarity 

We've recently learned the bad news that Coastal GasLink (CGL) got the
green light to start pipeline work near the Unist'ot'en Healing Centre,
the scene of a RCMP attack and arrests in February, although the company
does not have the consent of the Wet'suwet'en Hereditary Chiefs who are
overseeing and caring for the territory where the pipeline is planned to
pass. In a construction update posted to Coastal GasLink's website on
August 6, the company says it has begun installing pipe at either end of
the 670-kilometre pipeline route, in Kitimat and Groundbirch. Read all
the updates and links here:

Support 1492 Land Back Lane 

Six Nations Land Defenders have mobilized to stop the Mackenzie Meadows
housing development project bordering the town of Caledonia. Mackenzie
Meadows is one of several housing developments within the area that are
directly violating the sovereignty of the Haudenosaunee. Donate to the
legal fund to support Land Defenders facing current charges and any
future charges that may result from the numerous injunctions against the
land defenders.
