Peaceful protests at Sipekne'katik, Millbrook, We’koqma’q, and Paqtnkek lasted several hours Thursday.
im a week late to this story but man fuck the RCMP as always and fuck Tim Houston for saying the protesters all just need to respect the cops. evil settler state tryna punish people on their own land so they can corner the market with shitty government weed and extract more profits, by telling multiply debunked lies abt there being fentanyl in weed sold by First Nations dispensaries
“They keep saying our weed is laced, there are bad drugs being sold — all because we have better weed than them,” Brooks said. “It’s them trying to take over our industry.”
“Our people have always been put to the lowest. They don’t respect our treaties, they don’t respect our people, they don’t respect that they’re on the land of the original people,” Francis said."
