FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - Wet'suwet'en Evict Coastal Gaslink From Drill Site; Re-Establish Coyote Camp

Dec 20, 2021 - Unceded Gidimt'en Territory, Smithers (BC):

Gidimt'en land defenders and supporters have once again evicted Coastal Gaslink workers from a key pipeline drill site, protecting Wet'suwet'en headwaters and re-occupying the area known as "Coyote Camp".

Early Sunday, in observance of Wet'suwet'en law, land defenders enforced the Wet'suwet'en Hereditary Chiefs' 2020 Eviction Notice to Coastal Gaslink, removing pipeline workers and re-establishing the blockade that ended on Nov 19th after two days of militarized police raids.

The eviction took place exactly one month after RCMP made 30 arrests on Wet'suwet'en yintah, marking the third large-scale militarized operation on unceded Wet'suwet'en land since 2019. Approximately 100 RCMP, equipped with assault weapons, sniper rifles, and dogs were deployed while floodwaters raged throughout the province, to facilitate construction of the Coastal GasLink pipeline and the theft of sovereign Wet'suwet'en land.

The Wet'suwet'en people have never sold, surrendered, or in any way relinquished title to Wet’suwet’en land.

Today's action follows the 24th anniversary of the 1997 Delgamuukw-Gisday’wa court ruling, which proved that Aboriginal title has never been extinguished across 58,000km2 of Wet'suwet'en and Gitxsan lands. The Supreme Court of Canada recognized the Wet’suwet’en Hereditary Chiefs as representatives of the Wet’suwet’en title holding collective, and Anuc ‘nu’at’en (Wet’suwet’en law) as the basis of Wet’suwet’en society.

In violation of the Delgamuukw-Gisday’wa ruling, the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, and Anuc ‘nu’at’en, the Coastal GasLink pipeline has proceeded without the Free, Prior, and Informed Consent of the Wet’suwet’en Hereditary Chiefs.

In early 2020, Hereditary Chiefs representing all five clans of the Wet’suwet’en nation issued an eviction notice to Coastal Gaslink, leading to a series of blockades across Wet’suwet’en land and sparking nationwide solidarity actions. Today, this eviction is once again in force.

"Coastal GasLink does not and will never have the consent of the Wet'suwet'en Hereditary governance system and should expect that Wet'suwet'en law will prevail on our lands. No amount of state violence against us will make us forget our responsibility to protect the water for all future generations”, says Sleydo', spokesperson for the Gidimt'en Checkpoint.

BREAKING - Gidimt'en Clan Evicts Coastal Gaslink from Drill Site; Re-Occupies Coyote Camp

Early Sunday, Gidimt'en land defenders evicted Coastal Gaslink workers and re-established control of Coyote Camp, the site where Coastal Gaslink plans to drill beneath Wet'suwet'en headwaters.

This courageous action took place one month after a wave of militarized raids on Gidimt'en land, where police with assault weapons, dogs, and sniper rifles arrested 30 people, including land defenders, journalists, and legal observers.

Wet'suwet'en people have never surrendered this land, and we never will. Our lands are not for sale, and the safety of our waters is non-negotiable.

In early 2020, Hereditary Chiefs from all five clans of our nation stood together and issued an eviction to CGL. That eviction remains in force today.

We are calling for supporters to join us on the ground, or take action where you stand.

" I echoed the calls from the Land Defenders at 1492 Land Back Lane, the Haudenosaunee Confederacy Chiefs Council, and the Six Nations Elected Council for a moratorium on new developments within the Haldimand Tract, and an end to police violence to allow for a respectful nation-to-nation approach to resolving Six Nation's historic land claim."

Wet'suwet'en Access Point on Gidimt'en Territory

Wet'suwet'en Access Point on Gidimt'en Territory

Coastal GasLink, escorted by the RCMP, have continued to trespass on Wet’suwet’en yintah and violate our laws and Canada's own constitution by interrupting our hunting.

Their invasion continues amid a global pandemic as we see infections skyrocket. They have no regard for life.

On November 9th, 2020 they endangered the lives of hunters and media as they bulldozed traditional territories and culturally modified trees. Their blatant disregard for human life must not go unchallenged in these unprecedented times. There are many people facilitating genocide on our territory, including contractors like MSJV.

Governments do land acknowledgments yet refuse to respect treaty rights and Indigenous sovereignty.

I stand in solidarity with the Land Defenders at 1492 Land Back Lane. Violence against Indigenous peoples must come to an end.
