colonial Canadian court does some more colonial-ing:-

"The B.C. Court of Appeal says a Wet’suwet’en chief found guilty of criminal contempt for violating an injunction can't use a "novel" claim that he was following Indigenous law when he violated a court order. "

@beandreams The RCMP COs sent to #Wetsuweten land defenders/water protectors camp were Brewer & Charney. They were both promoted. Charney was the one who slashed the emergency water tanks, during wildfires season. DLT Newman was the CIRG 'Indian Agent' they sent to that camp & to Gitxan territory to help terrorize Indigenous land defenders. I have met all of these RCMP CIRG domestic terrorists on mainland & on the island.
Charney should be in prison - he's the most unhinged & they put him in charge of most of the violent raids.

Since 2020, “rule of law” became politicians’ mantra, urging police to shut down #Wetsuweten solidarity blockades.

Fast-forward six years, the line has been abandoned in favour of something suggesting law is not so much a rule but something to be manipulated.

What Happened to the ‘Rule of Law’? | The Tyee

It was a common refrain during the Wet’suwet’en pipeline conflict. But when courts side with First Nations, politicians are more equivocal.
