The Labrador Land Protectors are fighting for their lives, trying to stop an act of cultural genocide at Muskrat Falls, Labrador. They are urging you to sign and share this petition – https://www.change.org/p/a-call-to-suspend-the-dangerous-operations-at-muskrat-falls-labrador – demanding a suspension of operations at this hydro megaproject that will poison traditional food webs, threatens mass drowning due to construction on unstable, shifting clay, and will eliminate Indigenous cultures that have existed since time immemorial.
A new report issued today further documents the risk of catastrophic dam break and mass drowning of those downstream (see http://unclegnarley.blogspot.ca/2017/12/must-people-of-hv-gb-and-mud-lake-learn.html)
Justin Trudeau apologized for the residential schools' role in genocide, yet he is funding Muskrat Falls' contribution to a future genocide with $9.2 billion. Please sign and share widely. If this government truly respects Indigenous rights, it must listen to and receive the consent of (and equally respect the refusal of consent from) Indigenous people. It is not too late to stop this disaster from causing further harm.
We appreciate your support of this grass roots group of Indigenous people and non-Indigenous allies who, in the true spirit of reconciliation and truth, have come together as land protectors to resist a project that threatens all of their lives.
Thank you.
The Ontario-Muskrat Solidarity Coalition
