TMX: ‘We’re being criminalized on our own territories’
By Alex Nguyen
Awave of direct action against the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project — led in particular by Indigenous land defenders — has been growing in B.C.’s Lower Mainland in the past few weeks. Most recently, around 50 Indigenous land defenders and climate activists marched for 5 km from the TMX construction site to the Watch House’s site on March 10. Three years ago on that day, Indigenous groups launched the Watch House near the Burnaby Mountain tank farm to monitor work being done on the project.
