Hold the Wall

In December 2010, First Nations across BC and Alberta came together in a show of unprecedented solidarity to stop the Enbridge Northern Gateway pipeline by signing the Save the Fraser Declaration.

Representatives of well over 100 First Nations throughout BC and Canada are now signatories to this powerful legal document that protects the lands and waters we all rely on from devastating oil spills for all people and all generations.

This is the critical time to show that citizens of British Columbia and Canada stand with First Nations to hold this wall.

The First Nations of the Yinka Dene Alliance continue to steward the lands and waters in their territories according to ancestral laws.  They have used those laws, expressed in the Save the Fraser Declaration, to ban Enbridge’s Northern Gateway and similar tar sands projects from their territories. Their laws require doing this to defend the lands and waters they rely on.

The time is now when First Nations call on all Canadians to stand with us,

in whatever way you can: with your voice, in the streets, or on the land.
