Wet’suwet’en Resources in Manitoba

Collected by: University of Winnipeg

Archived since: Feb, 2020

Description:

The Wet’suwet’en Resources in Manitoba collection was created in an effort to preserve the news, blogs, social media, and controversy as it relates to Manitoba surrounding the Coastal GasLink pipeline proposing to go through the Wet’suwet’en Nation's territory. The Coastal GasLink pipeline is part of a $40 billion project that would move natural gas extracted from northeastern B.C. to the proposed LNG Canada facility in Kitimat, B.C., where the gas would be liquefied and shipped overseas. A large portion of the proposed 670-kilometre pipeline is slated to go through the Wet'suwet'en Nation's traditional territory — a route rejected by most of the nation's hereditary chiefs. The pipeline's owner, TC Energy, says it has signed agreements with all First Nations along the proposed route, but the hereditary leaders say those agreements don't apply to their territory because they have never historically ceded their territory. The Wet’suwet’en Nation lies about 300 kilometres west of Prince George, B.C. Wet'suwet'en members and supporters established checkpoints and camps to prevent Coastal GasLink workers from accessing the Nation's territory. TransCanada got an interim injunction from B.C. Supreme Court in December 2018 for access, which was enforced by RCMP in January 2019, when 14 people were arrested at the Gidimt'en camp. Protests were organized nationally and internationally in support of the Wet’suwet’en Nation.

Title: Special Statement from President Chartrand on Wet'suwet'en Blockades

URL: http://www.mmf.mb.ca/news_details.php?news_id=443

Description: We have been watching with the understanding that this governance issue between the First Nation Chief and Councils (who support the pipeline) and some of the Hereditary Chiefs (who disagree with the pipeline) is not yet resolved. The Metis Nation is a Nation born out of resistance. Resistance based on defending the rights of our families and our future. We understand struggle, we understand not being heard. We understand that we must fight when we have too. We have made great strides in bringing awareness of our rights to Canadians and the world. We have done this with hard work, consistently moving our agenda forward and our people to their rightful place for our families, the youth and the generations to come. We have not interfered or involved ourselves in this conflict out of respect for the First Nation Elders and Citizens of this territory. Unfortunately, as the escalation of this conflict and immediate impacts are far reaching and now affect every corner of our country, we are compelled to respond.
