Last week, I spent a day documenting the Ontario Legislature for @thenarwhalca to bring some visuals to @fatimabsyed in-depth reporting on how First Nations communities are responding to the lack of consultation for mining projects on their lands.

Despite massive opposition from First Nations communities against Bill 5, Doug Ford's controversial mining bill was passed today.
