Taken from the Facebook page for Gidimt'en Checkpoint May 13, 2022:
“Do they have fucking face paint on too?” one asks. “They’re not orcs?” he adds, seemingly referencing The Lord of the Rings.
Another laughs, “The Uruk-Hai, yeah, they burst from the earth” and makes a guttural growling sound as the first officer giggles. “Hand of Sauron.”
(audio link in article)
These are the same racist CIRG officers that repeatedly trespass and harass our people at our Gidimt’en village site multiple times a day.
And for those that might have forgotten or missed the memo, these are intentional tactics presumably hatched after industry urged the government to take action one day after the landmark Delgamuukw decision in 1997, “The decision makes the need for certainty through surrender all the more clear. We see no other alternative.”
(Feb 2020 article “Industry, government pushed to abolish Aboriginal title at issue in Wet’suwet’en stand-off, docs reveal” by The Narwhal)
Read the full article and then call your politicians.

Wet’suwet’en land defenders in Canada are at risk of serious human rights violations and could be arrested on their territory by Canadian Police. Hereditary chiefs oppose a liquified natural gas pipeline and have not given their consent to the project.
Wet’suwet’en and other land defenders have already faced three raids by heavily armed police since 2019, and 15 people are currently facing criminal contempt charges for defying a court injunction that authorizes the police to remove people occupying permitted work sites.
Wet’suwet’en Nation members report daily visits, harassment and intimidation by Canadian police officers and the company’s private security service.
Write a letter in your own words or using the sample below as a guide to one or both government officials listed. You can also email, fax, call or Tweet them.
Please take action as-soon-as possible. This Urgent Action expires on July 31, 2022.

Dirs. Jennifer Wickham, Brenda Michell & Michael Toledano 2024 Canada // 125 min.
This gripping debut feature from Michael Toledano, Jennifer Wickham, and Brenda Mitchell, unfolds as Wet’suwet’en activists confront fossil fuel corporations, the Canadian government, and militarized police to stop the construction of gas and oil pipelines on their territory.
Taking its title from the Wet’suwet’en word for “land”, the film chronicles the decade-long struggle led by leaders Howilhkat Freda Huson and Sleydo’ Molly Wickham, as they endure assaults from all directions.
By constructing homes and establishing a healing center along the proposed pipeline route, they assert their right to defend their territory.
Deeply embedded within the communities, the filmmakers chronicle the confrontations with outsiders through frenetic and exhilarating footage, taking us straight to the heart of the resistance.
Yintah presents this urgent tale of modern colonization as a global-scale thriller and a rallying cry to keep fighting.
(EP)This film contains images of animal blood.Q&A with directors Michael Toledano, Jennifer Wickham & Brenda Michell” Source: https://truefalse.org/program/films/

Anyone who ever accused me of pretending i had to survive nazi parents just to get sympathy clout should tead my dads latest letter to the paper. Naturally his other kid is like "fuck everyone who says they stand with wetsuweten, they dont even know what it means". Theyre dogshit kulaks, i wish them crop failure.
They think the band councils picked by the colonial government that answers to the white king of england is somehow less "pro-monarchy" than honouring the hereditary chiefs, as tho thats not backwards & apples to oranges bullshit to start with that only makes sense to kulaks because theyre cognitively impaired by their nazism
