While the @bcndp gov’t struggles with the severe impacts of flooding that are a result of the worsening #ClimateCrisis they are diverting critical #RCMP resources into #Wetsuweten territory again to protect the gov’ts #frackedgas pipeline 1/ #bcpoli #LNG
When @geoffmeggs delivered the news to the @bcgreencaucus that the @bcndp were going to support the #CGL #frackedgas pipeline I asked him how they would deal with the long-established blockades on #Wetsuweten territory. He said it was under control. Clearly not! 2/ #bcpoli
The chaos in Crown-Indigenous relations has been created by a @bcndp gov’t whose words and actions are not aligned. Say one thing, do another. @MurrayRankinNDP was on the #Wetsuweten file since early 2020 when he was brought in to mop up the mess gov’t created. #FAIL 3/ #bcpoli
In 2020 @nathancullen was appointed as gov't liaison. Now he’s MLA for the region (& Minister of State of Natural Resources) his constituents call me because he won’t return their calls. He watches from sidelines while militarized #RCMP do his gov’ts dirty work. 4/ #bcpoli
Article 10 of the #UNDRIP (which is law in B.C.) says “Indigenous peoples shall not be forcibly removed from their lands or territories.” This @bcndp gov’t have been forcibly removing Indigenous people from their territories for more than two years now. 5/ #bcpoli #Wetsuweten
The hypocritical & unprincipled @bcndp claim to uphold the articles of #UNDRIP while they willfully violate it (repeatedly). They claim to be fighting the #climatecrisis while investing public money in #fossilfuel extraction. Their actions are diabolical & dangerous. 6/ #bcpoli
The @bcndp has lost all semblance of principled leadership. They appear content to try to arrest their way to #reconciliation. Where are the @BCNDPCaucus backbenches who claim they believe in #climateaction and reconciliation? Your silence is noted. 7/ #bcpoli #Wetsuweten
