Actions Continue Across the Country Demanding Rights and Title of Wet'suwet'en Be Respected
During the past week, along with the continuing
blockades of transportation infrastructure in locations across the
country, rallies and marches took place in a number of cities and
towns. These included large marches in Vancouver and at the Rainbow
Bridge in Niagara Falls. Film showings, concerts and other fundraisers
and events were also organized to support the Wet'suwet'en land
defenders.
In Ottawa and Toronto marches were organized on
Ontario's Family Day holiday. Thousand poured into the streets of
Toronto for the Family Day march to voice their demands that
the
Canadian government and Coastal GasLink must get off Wet'suwet'en lands
and that new relations must be established with the Indigenous peoples
that respect their jurisdiction and rights. For two hours the march
made it way through the streets of the downtown, closing several major
intersections along the way, before ending at Queen's Park.
