United Nations Special Rapporteur Visits Northern #Alberta
TREATY 6 (EDMONTON)—Representatives from Treaty 8, Treaty 6, and Keepers of the #Water will meet the #UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights, Pedro Arrojo-Agudo, during his visit to Canada. Arrojo-Agudo is visiting April 8 - 19 to discuss safe drinking water and sanitation. Alberta is facing a drought in 2024, and the extraction industry still has the right to much of the water that is left.
“Keepers of the Water will attend this meeting to share the serious concerns related to Water, such as the proposal to dump the toxic tailings into the Athabasca River and other industrial contamination concerns, as well as the immense water use by Industry and how that will impact this entire society as we are in a drought.”
Jesse Cardinal, Executive Director, Keepers of the Water

Novelist confirmed to be among at least 60 injured in Russian attack on restaurant that killed 12Emma Graham-Harrison (The Guardian)
There were 15 kids in the basement of the restaurant celebrating graduation.
12 people died. 60 were injured.
This is the essential difference: When Al-Quada terrorists kill civilians, we hunt down and kill their leader.
When Putin does it, politicians reserve his stooges a seat at the table in the #UN.
This is wrong.

What's #NATO's plan to prevent this?
Or is it just the usual "expressing our concern, are monitoring the situation, and talking to our partners" bullsh** that #Putin couldn't care less about?
First the dam blown up.
No reaction. No consequence.
What next? What's the deterrent? Anyone?
