🇨🇦 The Xatśūll Fight to Halt Mount Polley Mine’s Tailings Expansion

"The company could resume adding mine waste to the facility next week. The harm would be irreversible, the First Nation says.
The Xatśūll First Nation is back in court this week renewing its pitch for an injunction to stop the Mount Polley mine from expanding the use of its tailings storage facility, a 60-metre-high dam that collapsed in 2014 and spilled 25 million cubic metres of waste into the Fraser watershed."

The Hill Times · Carney says Indigenous traditions are key to protecting nature—Métis climate leadership offers a path forwardBy Victoria Pruden

In a landmark win for Indigenous sovereignty in Canada, the Heiltsuk Nation in British Columbia has formally adopted its own constitution.

The new constitution enshrines the power of both elected members and hereditary chiefs, and shifts control over justice, child welfare, and land management back to the community #Canada #Indigenous #firstnations #britishcolumbia

‘It's All over Now’
(Papunya Sessions, 1982)

Cut live to two-track in a house in Papunya, 240 kms NW of Alice Springs (Mparntwe), this lively album predates their first single ‘Jailanguru Pakarnu’, and well before classic anthems ‘Black Fella White Fella’ & ‘Island Home’.

Rough as guts, this is a joyous flex of young muscle & spirited bash.
