Yinka Dene Alliance Freedom Train arrived in Winnipeg last night. The Alliance is on a cross Canada trip that will end in Toronto, on Bay Street, at the Enbridge AGM. Their goal is to spread the word to Canadians about the dangers posed by the proposed Enbridge Northern Gateway Pipeline that is being pushed by the current Canadian federal goverment and its corporate friends. The pipeline is meant to carry bitumen from the Alberta Tar Sands to the West Coast. In this interview, Chief Na’Moks of the Wet’suwet’en Nation discusses why he joined the Freedom Train, and the implacable opposition that the First Nations have formed to protect their land.
