Similar actions have been held recently in response to a parliamentary report that failed to call for a full public inquiry into the deaths.
Wednesday's action by Tyendinaga Mohawks is taking place in the Napanee area of Ontario, and is affecting trains on the Toronto - Montreal and Toronto - Ottawa routes, according to a statement issued by VIA Rail.
Twitter user Jerome Lessar/ @JL1Intell was documenting the action on Twitter:
Presenting his annual report, James Anaya, UN Special Rapporteur on indigenous rights, warned in October that "there is a crisis in Canada when it comes to indigenous issues," and said he backed a federal inquiry into the "disturbing phenomenon" of missing and murdered aboriginal women.
Winnipeg-based writer Don Marks wrote last week that new research showing that "824 of our fellow citizens disappear[ed] without a major countrywide alarm or crisis" was "a complete indictment of our society."
Trump and Musk are on an unconstitutional rampage, aiming for virtually every corner of the federal government. These two right-wing billionaires are targeting nurses, scientists, teachers, daycare providers, judges, veterans, air traffic controllers, and nuclear safety inspectors. No one is safe. The food stamps program, Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid are next. It’s an unprecedented disaster and a five-alarm fire, but there will be a reckoning. The people did not vote for this. The American people do not want this dystopian hellscape that hides behind claims of “efficiency.” Still, in reality, it is all a giveaway to corporate interests and the libertarian dreams of far-right oligarchs like Musk. Common Dreams is playing a vital role by reporting day and night on this orgy of corruption and greed, as well as what everyday people can do to organize and fight back. As a people-powered nonprofit news outlet, we cover issues the corporate media never will, but we can only continue with our readers’ support. |
