Alberta has flirted with nuclear power before. Is it now ready to make a move? | CBC News In an Edmonton hotel ballroom, representatives from the nuclear industry are buzzing about the potential to power Alberta by splitting atoms. The province has been excited about nuclear before, and wh...

Not a single word about Indigenous, the harm on Indigenous Peoples’, Treaty rights, nor Alberta’s evil record of being incapable of dealing with clean up fossil fuels, let alone mitigating this. Alberta also hates non Alberta regulators which could prevent this. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Canada was a signatory to that convention in 1952 while they forcibly took Indigenous children out of their homes (and still do). What are they living up to exactly? They never bothered to live up to it before.

PM @mark-carney.bsky.social & Premier Ford,

Will Canada reconcile its truth of occupying Indigenous Peoples, breaking Treaties, violating UNDRIP & duty to free & prior informed consent, & unaliving people & planet for colonial profit? 👀📙🍉

Thousands of people wearing orange shirts in honour of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation filled Portage Avenue in Winnipeg, crossing in front of APTN headquarters where we captured the sights and sounds of the walk.

Here’s an extended cut.

This is what the RCMP was doing back then, kidnapping Indigenous children and taking them to Residential School

On the eve of the National Day of Truth and Reconciliation, we see why Call to Action 6 is not yet implemented.

Evan, I’m proud of you. #TeacherSolidarity

Dear organizations and businesses acknowledging The National Day of Truth and Reconciliation.. show your work. Show the stats of employees that are #Indigenous. In leadership positions. Retention numbers. How you implemented the Calls. How you’re continuing your groups education & anti racism work.

🧡 Today, on National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we honour Survivors of residential schools, their families, and communities. 1/3

settlers are not entitled to the unpaid labour of Indigenous Women & Peoples. Certainly not during a traumatic time like this!

I’ve blocked two folkx on TT with orange hearts, and watermelons in the bio demanding free labour of me on Bryan Adams on this day. Cdns do not understand violence against Indigenous women at all.

We cannot rest or be complacent—even as the colonial governments of these territories shift to abandon their commitments and bring new violence to all Indigenous nations.
Truth and Justice require more than words, but action.
5/5

They are alive and well in the Child Welfare System, Group Homes, Prisons, in anti-encampment legislation, and in violent resource extraction.
4/5

The Residential School System, the 60's Scoop, and the Asylum System in Ontario created cross-generational state violence against First Nations, Métis, and Inuit families and their nations.

Yet, these vile colonial structures are not dead or in the past.
3/5

We cannot separate our fight for disability justice from decolonization. We cannot separate deinstitutionalization from the long histories of colonial violence, death, and disablement on these territories.

Today marks National Day of Truth and Reconciliation in Canada

On this day, all non-Indigenous people are called upon to witness and act upon this truth, without which there can be no reconciliation

September 30 is Orange Shirt Day, the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation in Canada. A day to honor the children taken to residential schools, to remember survivors, and to confront the harm done. But an Orange shirt is not enough, orange donuts just crass.

Everyday is orange shirt day. End genocide everywhere. Stand with Indigenous Peoples. Fuck settler colonialism. Free the people, free the land.

We live on stolen land. Land back. Land back. Land back.

Today is National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, also known as Orange Shirt Day – a time to raise awareness for the ongoing impacts of residential school and remember the children who never came home.

Fine, then give us back the land you stole. Forget the land acknowledgements and return the land in totality...
