Wet'suwet'en Land Defenders visit Akwesasne Mohawk Territory during a free screening of "Yintah", a documentary highlighting the Wet'suwet'en peoples decade long battle to protect their homeland and headwaters; as well as the support received from the Haudenosaunee and the powerful impact it had, sending a very clear message to the Canadian government.

While the Supreme Court's recent ruling on the abuse of process application filed by three land defenders, Sleydo' Molly Wickham (Wet'suwet'en) Shaylynn Sampson (Gitxsan) and Corey Jayohcee Jocko (Kanienkehaka- Akwesasronon), seems like a step in the right direction in addressing the misuse of public force against the defenders of the Wet'suwet'en territory; concerns remain over the fact that the criminalization case against them is still ongoing and expected to proceed April 3rd, 2025.

"If the Canadian state decides to unjustly criminalize and confine Sleydo', Shaylynn, and Corey, Amnesty International will not hesitate to designate them as prisoners of conscience," said Ana Piquer, Americas director at Amnesty International. "Canada is on the sadly long list of countries in the Americas where land defenders remain at risk for their essential work."
