The Great Lakes are under attack, and Indigenous women and allies are rising to shutdown Line 5! Operating 20 years past its engineered life span, Enbridge’s Line 5 pipeline is threatening 20 percent of the world’s surface freshwater and violating Indigenous sovereignty.

Despite strong opposition, Enbridge is moving forward with a proposed reroute and expansion of the pipeline. The existing Line 5 pipeline must be shut down and decommissioned, not simply re-routed and expanded. At a time of climate crisis, Line 5 is putting at risk sacred ecosystems, clean drinking water, treaty territories, and our global climate!

Please join us in Washington DC to stand with Indigenous women leaders and Tribal leadership to Stop Line 5!

The delivery and rally is led by the Indigenous Women’s Treaty Alliance with the support of WECAN and Sierra Club. The petition delivery builds on growing national and regional efforts to stop Line 5 permanently, and will take place ahead of the premiere of the BAD RIVER documentary film, taking place in Washington D.C. with invited Congressional and government leaders and officials. Since 2022, WECAN has been honored to facilitate the Indigenous Women’s Treaty Alliance, a group of Indigenous women leaders from the Great Lakes region.
