We are writing to express our solidarity with the Wet\u2019suwet\u2019en Peoples\u2019 defense of traditional territories and resistance against Coastal Gaslink, who have encroached on sovereign lands without authorization or consent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In our work with migrant farm workers, we recognize that most of the people we work with also come from colonized contexts, and we seek to address systemic racism, colonialism, and capitalism which are the foundations of all of our common struggles.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We urge the colonial government of British Columbia to honour and enforce the rights recognized in the 1997 Delgamuukw ruling regarding rights and title to unceded ancestral territories, and to honour the principles laid out by UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, which the BC Government was one of the first to sign in affirmation of the rights and titles of Indigenous nations in BC.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We condemn the violent invasion of Wet\u2019suwet\u2019en lands by RCMP, and any attempts by Coastal Gaslink to usurp the rights and authority of the protectors at Unist\u2019ot\u2019en.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wet\u2019suwet\u2019en land defenders are on the front lines of the struggle against colonial violence and capitalist oppression that has been ongoing for hundreds of years. <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
