Solidarity fundraiser aims to help protect Wet’suwet’en lands from pipeline project

Guelph, Ont. – A Wet’suwet’en solidarity fundraiser was held earlier this week to help protect Wet’suwet’en lands in northern British Columbia from drilling beneath the Wedzin Kwa (Morice River), site of the Coastal GasLink pipeline project.

The solidarity group is also pressuring the Royal Bank of Canada to defund the pipeline project. Guelph Mercury Tribune report | READ MORE
