"Defend Elder Bill Jones & Those Protecting the Upper Walbran"
https://chuffed.org/project/defend-the-upper-walbran-stand-with-pacheedaht-elder-bill-jones
Elder Bill Jones of the Pacheedaht Nation is 85 years old. For decades, he has welcomed people into the forests to stand with him in defense of the last old-growth trees on his territory. At Fairy Creek, his invitation sparked one of the largest acts of civil resistance in Canadian history. Now, Western Forest Products has filed a civil suit against him, seeking an injunction that would make it illegal for Bill to be on his own land. If this injunction is granted, police will be authorized to arrest and detain those protecting the old growth.
