DESCRIPTION
There are those who spend days and weeks and months defending Mother Earth from Resource Extraction that can kill her; Climate Change is real and people like Greta Thunberg are hailed as heroes while Indigenous Land Defenders are considered criminals; what is the role of Corporate Resource Extraction and the RCMP? Who are the people that continue to defend the land and water and air?
Come meet one of our women warriors and hear how her desire to protect Mother Earth for future generations has made her out to be a criminal.
