In the decade since the blockade began, the community continues to maintain a moratorium on clear cutting in their traditional territories. For ten years now, despite the ongoing threat of logging, grandmothers, mothers, trappers and youth have held off some of the world's largest paper corporations. The community has also taken the Ontario government to task for inaction on the ongoing effects of mercury poisoning on their families and ecosystems.

 

Many of you, your families, your organizations, your communities, have supported their efforts in the last decade. The Sacred Fire at Queen's Park Lawn on December 2nd, 2012, is a great way to show your ongoing support and to mark an important anniversary in the fight to protect Indigenous rights and the water, air, land, and creatures that we all depend on.
