Meet the Pipeline Protester Facing 5 Years for Peaceful Action

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FOZWJV6bJY&ab_channel=DemocracyNow%21

We speak with climate activist and water protector Mylene Vialard, whose trial for peacefully protesting the Enbridge Line 3 pipeline began this week in Minnesota. Vialard faces up to five years in prison for her 2021 protest, when she attached herself to a 25-foot bamboo tower erected to block a pumping station in Aitkin County. Vialard, who lives in Colorado, had come to Minnesota to take part in a wave of Indigenous-led acts of civil disobedience to stop the pipeline. Between December 2020 and September 2021, police in Minnesota made more than 1,000 arrests. Mylene Vialard is just the second water protector facing felony charges to go to trial. “We’re destroying our planet. We’re destroying our way of life,” says Vialard. We also speak with Indigenous lawyer and activist Tara Houska, who was also arrested in 2021 for participating in a nonviolent action against Line 3. She says police violence against environmental and Indigenous activists has gotten “exponentially worse” since the 2016 Dakota Access protests at Standing Rock. “The crackdown on environmental protests is nationwide,” says Houska.

“Canada’s #NationalObserver reported a supposedly independent, third-party report that #Enbridge—Ontario’s gas utility—commissioned to argue for natural gas contains data that erroneously inflated the cost of switching from #NaturalGas to electricity for home heating. The company has cited the inaccurate information to try to convince the utility commission and the public to let it expand natural gas pipe capacity in the province.” https://gratefuldread.masto.host/@gratefuldread/110939652504368160

Anti-Pipeline Protesters in the Great Lakes Region Shut Down Valves for the Line 5 Pipeline

https://itsgoingdown.org/anti-pipeline-protesters-in-the-great-lakes-region-shut-down-valves-for-line-5-pipeline/

Anti-pipeline activists took credit for shutting down "2 different pipeline valves...along the Line 5" pipeline route in the Great Lakes region. According to Unicorn Riot, this latest act of sabotage is part of an ongoing push against pipelines in the so-called Midwest...

OK, can anyone explain to me like I’m 10 how it is that “Great Lakes” is a problematic label?

(I mean, OBVIOUSLY #Enbridge is in the wrong. The only argument for keeping #Line5 *at all* is that they want to keep making money from feeding fossil fuel addictions just as they have for decades. )

I’m just confused by “so-called Great Lakes”

They are the largest surface freshwater system in the world. On an unlabeled world map, they stand out as the only feature you’d call “The Great Lakes.”

Two Valves Turned Closed on Enbridge’s Line 5

"It is with a heavy heart and hazy skies we announce that 2 different pipeline valves were turned off along the Line 5 route on Anishinaabae land in the great lakes region.This was done on the 13th anniversary of the Kalamazoo River oil spill. ... They must stop the flow of oil, because all of our lives depend on it.

And if they don’t, we will"

#NativeAmerican #WaterProtectors Assaulted During #Enbridge Lecture at Northern Michigan College

By Sierra Clark, Contributing Writer, June 29, 2023

"A public lecture featuring transnational pipeline and energy company Enbridge last week escalated to the assault of an #Anishinaabe water protector and allies protesting the controversial #Line5 project.

"The event, hosted by North Central Michigan College (NCMC) in Petoskey on June 22, featured an Enbridge representative speaking about the Great Lakes Tunnel Project that would house a section of Line 5 under the Straits of Mackinac.

"During the lecture, the environmental protestors entered the NCMC Library Center and were confronted physically by several people attending the luncheon event."

First, a few days ago, the Supreme Court upheld the 1978 Indian Child Welfare Act.

Now, a US District Judge in Madison, Wisconsin rules in favor of the Bad River Band for #Enbridge trespassing Tribal Land.

Conservative $money$, the MAGA GOP, & the lunatic nut job escapees from Happy Farms ...QAnon ...are really hating what WOKE stands for!

#Leaders from 51 #TribalNations - including some in #Michigan blasted #Canada ’s support of #Enbridge ’s #Line5 #pipeline last week.

In a #report sent to the #UnitedNations #HumanRights Council, the group demanded #tribes from around the #GreatLakes have a say in the matter.

Attorney General #DanaNessel filed a lawsuit to shut down #Enbridge’s #Line5 pipeline, saying it was a grave threat to #Michigan & the #GreatLakes. The 70 year old oil & liquid natural gases pipeline which sits on the bottom of the Straits of Mackinac which connects Lakes Michigan & Huron. Nessel says Line 5 is a "ticking timebomb" because of the risk of an oil spill.

@MassDEP & #Enbridge roulette wheel spins again while “pigging” pipeline. @FERC erred/won’t revoke #NoWeymouthCompressor certificate, @PHMSA_DOT looks away. Call Enbridge hotline 888-293-7867 w/ questions&concerns or 911 for emergency.

Das (fossile) US-Energieunternehmen #Enbridge hat den Polizeikräften des Staates #Minnesota $ 8,6 Mio. zugesteckt, damit diese Natives davon abhält, den Bau einer Teersand-Pipeline durch deren Gebiet mit Demonstrationen zu verhindern.

Under #BClaw , permits for #WestcoastConnectorGasTransmission project expire next year if #Enbridge isn’t ready to start construction. Company requested extension until 2029.
Heyman must decide whether to approve an emergency #override to BC’s #Environmental Assessment Act. Basically to make an exception to the law for the largest #pipeline company on Earth.
