Canada Sees a ‘Watershed Moment’ in the Struggle for Indigenous Rights

1. Excellent as always Mr. Lascaris – didn´t see your signature or anyone else´s from Canada on the Int´l. jurist´s letter to Boris Johnson in support of J. Assange.

2. This is a tipping point moment in Canada, maybe even North America…❗️historically seen a “Sitting Bull” moment…The politicians no matter of their party alliance are weak and are managed and directed by the Corporate Owners ,Chairman’s, CEO’s of these oil companies etc.They are gutless, ruthless cowards that won’t show their faces. Hiding behind the police and military to defend their oligarchy..❗️
   This brave stand against corporate tyranny by the First Nations people must be embraced and supported by every Canadian ❗️
   Trudeau and his corporate cronies that will advise him will stop at nothing to achieve their goals in destroying this country to enrich themselves. They don’t care for us the people. ❗️

3. Just to add… it seems the perpetrators of this type of aggression want to stain democracy & create dissillusion with their treasonous conflicts of interest…

4. This is THEIR land & THEIR resources, if the indigenous people want to share in any of the benefits that may bring it is up to them & on thier terms!, otherwise it is theift, exploitation, terrorism & brings shame & devalues the cultures who seek to take it by force, respect is due…

5. Wow that was interesting to watch, I don't know what to say here that won't get most peoples panties in a wad but here it goes, this store here was just something to incite more hatred then deliver the facts, it seemed one sided and full of mistruths'. There were very little too no facts, maybe instead of just taking to a activist they should of also had one of the elected Chiefs and one of the hereditary Chiefs on as well, they are agreeing to do interviews with news media if they ask. I listened to each Chief on a talk radio program from Alberta and they said no one from the mainstream media or liberal based as well as a lot of the conservative media as well haven't asked all of them to do a interview because in their words, the media cant have people getting the real news from the actual people that are involved in this situation, also none of the 5 hereditary chiefs that are against the pipeline will do any interviews said one elected Chief. I'm at the point now that you can't just listen to one side of the media (meaning liberal or conservative)to get the facts, nowadays you must listen to both sides to be properly informed but if you are not looking for the facts I guess like most people on here just go ahead and bad mouth me just to make yourself fell superior to me, go ahead I think this is only the second time I have ever made a comment on a video I have seen on here and I wont be checking to see what people will reply on this because I don't care about your opinions on what I have said, I just hope some of you will dig deeper for once. Thanks for letting me take some of your precious time from you. 😁🍻

6. Thank you for bringing this to light… I live in middle of Iowa…I am on my personal war path to stop the use of pesticides state wide and to go completely organic one more to clean our rivers and heal the oceans from over chemicals… But fracting is a huge issue for my soul also.. How can people in the states help. In what ways. And is more people need for the protests? And how would it work if we are American in Canada trying to stop the disgrace on our planet?

7. This is a line of crap. Trudeau doesn't care for anything other than himself. Canadians are NOT for this protest, brainwashed Libtards are however. And the majority of the Wet'suet'en are FOR this pipeline. AND 95% of ALL the indigenous peoples are FOR this pipeline. It will give them jobs. These protesters are paid for by people like George Soros, just as he did in the "idle no more". movement was.

8. This woman is not indigenous !!!… She is Caucasian…smh

9. It's the Empire of Big Oil against the Indigenous people and their allies. Choose a side.

10. If you stick to the principles of rejecting the pipeline for the protection of the land ok,but if you're blockading for a better deal your hypocrites your no different than the oil or gas company.

11. The corporations hold the politicians hostage by threatening to back the opposition
    at the next election. The government ( whatever the political spectrum ) either risks
    being booted out of office or calls in the “ UNIFORMS”! The uniforms of course just
    “Follow orders”. Bye bye Democracy!

12. The Endless Abuse of Indigenous People of the Americas.

13. Dimitri, you say that Pam is a McMaw, Micmaw, Mikmaw, with a pronunciation as these names should be in English, but she's a Mi'kmaq and "maq" shouldn't be pronounced as "maw" and "maugh" should be. It's a question of phonetics and many people apparently never took a single course in this language field of study. The problem occurs in French and English, that's for sure. It'd be great of people to learn PHONETICS. And this applies to regular human speech, but also to computer science, a part that's about interfacing, programmatically, with hardware for the purpose of speech synthesis, for this requires correct phonetics. If the Mi'kmaq want that name to be pronounced as if it ends with "maw" instead of "maq", then they should properly correct current spellings, for a search of Wikipedia indicates that there're two employed spellings, the other being Miꞌgmaq, which again doesn't have "maw" instead of "maq". Anyway, and with that said, VERY FINE and welcome interview!

14. Reeeee!!! Why has the gubmint decided to bring the whole country to a halt by stopped railroads when all that's stopping the trains from running is the removal of arsy empee thugs representing an energy company from sovereign land that is not owned by the crown et al? Not a politician is acknowledging that the withdrawal of a foreign armed invader from private land will resolve the rail issue immediately…

15. Thank you TRNN, this is really important!

16. overthrow the ecocidal fossil fuel sociopaths

17. Fracking IN ITSELF is pollution and ALWAYS damages the local ecosystem!

    Fracking uses dozens to hundreds of chemicals to breakdown solid materials to release the oil.

    The pressure and gases released create fissures in unpredictable directions.

    Contamination WILL happen!

18. Sonnds vary similar to the Dakota pipeline in the USA. And the people lost there, not enough support from the entire country. So sad, the corporates deployed Mraps with all the new weapons on them. Also hired Mercenaries fully armed. They won't be stopped peaceably. Just saying, watch your back.

19. What harm is going to be done to the land the pipeline crosses?

20. excellent report Dimitri, as usual… thank you for taking so much care into this cause…

21. Worried about the water getting contaminated?.. totally understandable.. the people should start making primary water Wells,, but be prepared for the government that will most definitely come and try to shut it down.

22. 😆When have colonisers ever honoured any peace treaties! 🤨 Nah but seriously when?

23. The opposition has a habit of shaming the government into talking about indigenous issues, they never touch the issue of theft of native lands, the oppression and genocide of native peoples. Sadly for the most part their words are rarely followed with any actions . I think we will once again see the protesters removed by the police after the story fads a bit more from the headlines or mainstream media uses division and fear to get people to back the corporate narrative.
    Power to the people!

24. Lots of Canadians are also there protesting the further expansion of the Tar Sands and further fossil fuel extraction.. There is a bigger picture here. I was protesting last weekend and many of the signs related to climate change which Canada is failing miserably.

25. Canadians please stand with your Indigenous people. Enough is Enough.

26. The rule of law needs to be applied as per court order. Democracy cannot be hijacked by a minority special interest group. Trudeau's dithering & weak leadership is causing polarization. Indigenous people, quit whining & move forward.

27. thank you for telling us about this

28. Canada, USA, Australia, etc… every ex-British colony is full of Nazis.

29. Great interview, I learned so much about this issue that is just either not covered or covered incorrectly on the national media.

30. I'm canadain an always wonder why we need to ship oil out when we can make jobs an refined it ourselves

    But am not truedope

31. Seriously though, thank you for covering this story.

32. What the hell is wrong with the government's of this world they are not going to be happy until they start civil wars and they not going to be happy until they are swing from a tree

33. This channel is the joke! Let's all live like it's the 18th century and watch you all die!

34. So Indigenous people think there different than other people. Racism
