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"

#Indigenous Peoples Under Attack by Militarized Forces: #NativeHawaiians want the US military out
By Brenda Norrell, #CensoredNews
July 19, 2023
"GENEVA -- Native #Hawaiians want the US military off their lands, and training exercises in the #Pacific shut down. An #aquifer has been poisoned in #Hawaii, and unexploded ordinances left behind are endangering their lives.
Appealing to the United Nations in Geneva, Indigenous in Guam also want the US military off their lands. The Pacific Indigenous Women's Network urged the United Nations General Assembly to join the effort for the removal of the US military from #Guam.
"#Indigenous are offering testimony today, and all week, before the UN Expert Mechanism on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, of the UN #HumanRights Council.
"Around the world, #IndigenousPeoples are under attack by military forces. In #Colombia there are land mines.
"In Peru, the military is attacking, torturing, and killing, those who are isolated and have marched against the current government. More than 40 people, including Indigenous children, have died since protests began in #Peru in December.
"#Indigenous in #Guatemala echoed those descriptions of militarized force.
"Throughout the #Amazon, military forces are killing the people, and seizing the land under the guise of the war on drugs. Indigenous lands are being stolen for illegal #logging and #mining."

"By Latin American standards, Uruguay is a high-income country and it has historically thought of itself as having abundant water resources. Those who warned of diminishing supplies were considered catastrophists and investment was postponed."
Well, that's is an uncomfortably relatable quote to any #Canadian who is concerned with what's happening to #water in this country...

#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."

#CorporateTheocracy #Propoganda: A #security firm led by a former member of the U.S. #military’s #shadowy #SpecialForces, had, in fact, used #fake #reporters before to spy on pipeline opponents. The documents, released by the North Dakota Private Investigation and Security Board, reveal how TigerSwan and the sheriffs’ group worked together to twist the #story in the #media so that it aligned with the #oil #company’s interests, seeking to #pollute the #public’s #perception of the #waterprotectors.

#FortressConservation degrades #subsistence #waterprotectors livelihoods by creating #poverty: Shipibo leaders and their lawyers argue that authorities failed to follow legal protocols of consulting the community and instituted rules that restricted the #livelihoods of those within its borders, limiting #fishing, #farming, and #timber harvest to only what families can personally use, but not sell.

by Brenda Norrell, Censored News, April 14, 2023
"The #Intercept and #Grist began releasing new TigerSwan spy documents in new coverage of the mercenaries hired by the #DakotaAccess Pipeline. They now have 50,000 TigerSwan documents, and another 9,000 are held up in the court battle for now. The documents reveal TigerSwan spying on #WaterProtectors at #StandingRock in #NorthDakota, Bold Iowa, and at other locations.
"[Murdered] #Pauite #journalist, drone #activist and filmmaker #MyronDewey was among those that TigerSwan spied on and stalked at Standing Rock..."

“They ( #Canada & #CGL ) don’t care about the land. All they care about is the #money ” says #ChiefGisdaywa. “We don’t want the money. We want our land. Once we #pollute this #river that’ll be it. Everything down the line… our fish will be gone, once our fish are gone our wildlife will be gone. And once they’re gone, we’ll be right behind them.”
