Meet the Pipeline Protester Facing 5 Years for Peaceful Action

youtube.com/watch?v=9FOZWJV6bJ

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 reported a supposedly independent, third-party report that —Ontario’s gas utility—commissioned to argue for natural gas contains data that erroneously inflated the cost of switching from 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.” gratefuldread.masto.host/@grat

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

(I mean, OBVIOUSLY is in the wrong. The only argument for keeping *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"

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 trespassing Tribal Land.

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