Public · Hosted by *Coalition Against Bigotry - Pacific 
<https://www.facebook.com/coalitionagainstbigotryacab/>* and *FightC 
<https://www.facebook.com/fightsitec/>*
We are gathering in solidarity with the West Moberly First Nations and 
all Peace Valley protectors to say:
BC NEEDS FOOD FOR OUR FUTURE!
SITE C & LNG are NOT climate solutions!
Please join us in upholding our responsibilities to protect the land and 
water
We understand that EVERYONE needs to protect Northern lands such as the 
rich farmlands and forests of the Peace Valley (BC’s northern 
breadbasket). Food security matters. Healthy watersheds mean healthy 
futures.
The UN's Committee on Racism has asked Canada to stop the Site C dam 
because it violates an international convention to eliminate racism. The 
Peace River has suffered previous dams (WAC Bennett dam and Peace Canyon 
dam) that devastated the land, life & people. No one can afford to lose 
the last intact section of the Peace River, the sacred Peace Valley, to 
the destructive Site C mega dam. There are strong economic, 
environmental & ethical reasons to stop this destructive, over-priced 
mega dam NOW. It's not too late to stop the dam; better alternatives 
exist like community-based wind & solar. For more info see

CANADA NEEDS TO HONOUR INTERNATIONAL LAW & INDIGENOUS LAW!

See you on the streets! Please invite your friends!

FightC is a non-partisan, non-violent community group committed to 
stopping the Site C dam in solidarity with the Treaty 8 First Nations. 
We work to raise awareness and engagement on the violation of First 
Nations Treaty Rights, as well as the eviction of farmers, the 
destruction of farmland, the threat to food security, and the long term 
financial implications of the dam. Let’s not wait till your Hydro bills 
skyrocket - let’s expose the dam for the disaster it is & strive for the 
Vision of the Valley we need - Peace Valley Forever!
