“For over a century, the Crown has shown itself to be a patently unreliable and untrustworthy treaty partner in relation to the augmentation promise. It has lost the moral authority to simply say ‘trust us’” (Ontario v Restoule, 2024 SCC)

Today is National Missing and Murdered Indigenous Peoples (MMIP) Awareness Day, also known as Red Dress Day. This date was chosen to honor the life of Hanna Harris (Northern Cheyenne), who was murdered in July 2013 and would have turned 32 today.
“This is a day to honor the women, girls, and LGBTQ+ people affected by the genocide that’s been ongoing since 1492,” said journalist and activist Brandi Morin. And for her, it’s impossible to separate gender-based violence from the environment—and the fight for a healthier planet. “This violence is intrinsically connected to the land. Survivors are on the forefront of the fight for the land, because they know what it’s like not to give consent.”

The 1988 Brazilian Constitution recognized Indigenous peoples’ rights to lands and their natural resources, according to their traditions, uses, beliefs, and practices. But this has not impeded governments and lawmakers from enabling extractive activities: cup.org/49okx8C
