@cbcbc_mirror #BCNDP & federal Liberals don't care about respecting #IndigenousRights. They have blown millions of tax dollars to sue Indigenous peoples in BC & they sic RCMP on native land defenders. #Colonizers never really changed & are still abusive/exploitive. They never planned to fully implement #UNDRIP.

I am a two minute walk from the #ColumbiaRiver. Anyone who lives nearby is reminded repeatedly of how important it is & how vulnerable we are - to droughts, climate disasters like fires and now more than ever, US influence on this irreplaceable resource.

My town draws its drinking water from the reservoir & it is crucial to the health of forest, animal and fish. I can see signs of the old #Sinixt settlements along its shores. We must protect it.

What happens now with a key Canada-U.S. water treaty as the stakes change under Trump | CBC News

The Columbia River Treaty governs how Canada and the U.S. use dams for hydropower and flood control on the massive cross-border river. After more than 60 years, provisions have expired, and efforts to finalize a modern treaty before U.S. President Trump’s second term didn’t happen.

This is the story of one of the last Sinixt villages in Canada and the Christian family, forced from kp'itl'els (Brilliant Flats, near Castlegar) by the Doukhobours.

My family is Doukhobour, this is our story too - just like Residential Schools are also the story of non-Indigenous Canadians.
