PSA: Emergency demonstration in support of Alton Gas Water Protectors

When: Wednesday April 10, 5 PM

Where: Province House, Hollis Street entrance

Today, the RCMP moved to enforce an injunction on behalf of Alton Gas (a subsidiary of Alberta-based AltaGas) against Mi’kmaq water protectors at the Shubenacadie River. They arrested Mi’kmaq grandmothers, and have blocked others from accessing the site.

Meanwhile the Liberal government has rubberstamped this injustice by insisting that Alton Gas have met their duty to consult: To be clear, they have not.

Join us at the legislature to make a public show of solidarity against this clear violation of the treaties of  Peace and Friendship.

NOTE: For those closer to the Enfield area, there will also be a jail-support rally when we know where the RCMP have taken arrested grandmothers.
