In response to the call for actions by the Wet’suwet’en, Uni'stot'en, and Gidimt’en camps, we're calling for online and offline solidarity actions in the U.S. and beyond to end the violence against these First Nations' and stop Coastal Gaslink LNG pipeline that would cut right through their lands.
Host or join a #WetsuwetenStrong solidarity event now by following the prompts!
Let the Canadian Government, RCMP, TC energy and those financing these projects -- Chase and KKR-- know that if they continue to invade First Nations Land, we will respond.
View the KKR toolkit to take online action against them. (Link to come!)

We stand as witnesses to this
historic moment when the federal and provincial governments, RCMP, and
Coastal GasLink/TC Energy (formerly TransCanada) are openly violating
Wet’suwet’en, Canadian, and international law.
Coastal GasLink/TC Energy is pushing
through a 670-kilometer fracked gas pipeline that would carry fracked
gas from Dawson Creek, B.C. to the coastal town of Kitimat, where LNG
Canada’s processing plant would be located. LNG Canada is the single
largest private investment in Canadian history.
Each clan within the Wet’suwet’en
Nation has full jurisdiction under their law to control access to their
territory. Under ‘Anuc niwh’it’en (Wet’suwet’en law) all five clans of
the Wet’suwet’en have unanimously opposed all pipeline proposals and have not provided free, prior, and informed consent to Coastal Gaslink/TransCanada to do work on Wet’suwet’en lands.
How can you, as a supporter, show
your solidarity with the Wet’suwet’en and Unist’ot’en battle against
industry giants? What can you do to stem the tide of colonization and
corporate greed usurping Indigenous rights?
