Film Screening: As Long as the Rivers Flow : The Grassy Narrows Blockade Story
In December 2002, a small group of people from the reserve of Grassy Narrows First Nation took up the fight to protect their traditional lands from a forestry multinational corporation. They began a blockade that would eventually become the longest-standing in Canadian history. However, clear-cuts still take place – Weyerhaeuser and Abitibi refuses to respect the community’s right to self-determination within their traditional territory.
Come hear their story and find out how you can help.
