The Wet'suwet'en Protest on the Coastal GasLink Pipeline
In January of 2020, a series of protests in Canada began after TC Energy announced construction of their Coastal GasLink Pipeline, a project that was opposed by Wet’suwet’en's leaders, the hereditary chiefs. The construction of this pipeline was rejected by residents of the Unistʼotʼen Camp because of the potential implications it imposes on their access to vital resources, and medicines. As documented by the hereditary chiefs, "the land plays a critical role in the programming at the Unist’ot’en healing centre, which seeks to help Indigenous patients confront colonial trauma" The protest is ongoing, the last update was on March 21st.
