Calling all buyers, restaurants, native businesses - anyone who can buy the lobster from Mi'kmaw so that the racist, violent, non-native fishermen are not successful in starving Mi'kmaq out of our own fishery on our own lands by intimidating local buyers & shops. #Mikmawlobster

Mi'kma'ki is my home. All of my family & relatives live there. Racist non-native fishermen continue their violence with what appears to be full impunity. @rcmpgrcpolice @DFO_MAR @JustinTrudeau are allowing this to happen. This is terrorism on Mi'kmaw land. #Mikmaki #treatyrights

Your paper has no problem describing Black or Indigenous victims by every perceived flaw they had but a white mass killer is described with a passion for policing? How utterly and blatantly irresponsible as a news agency and disrespectful to the families of lost loved ones.

Dear PM Carney, Canada is bound by UN Charter & cannot attack or threaten to attack another sovereign country like Iran. Israel violated UN Charter when it pre-emptively & illegally attacked Iran. Israel has been claiming Iran is close to nuclear weapons for decades. The most

Iran’s nuclear programme is a grave threat to international security, and Canada has been consistently clear that Iran can never be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon. While U.S. military action taken last night was designed to alleviate that threat, the situation in the

Racist violence by non-native fishermen in Mi'kma'ki supported by gov'ts & cops is not new. It was never about conservation. Non-native fishermen wld rather destroy resource then let Mi'kmaw have a share. Real issue = maintaining death grip over Mi'kmaw lands waters & resources.

Dear media: Racism is a fact - it is not alleged. Racism is against the law - it is not a debate. There are no sides to racism - there is perpetrator & victim. There are no bad apples - the bunch is rotten. The media plays a key role in racism - you can excuse it or call it out.

What an honour to meet this powerful, compassionate warrior @FranceskAlbs @OHCHR_Palestine @UN to talk about how Indigenous human rights activists can help pressure the world to end the genocide in Palestine. We are watching the destruction of a people in graphic colour on social

Thanks to @CBCNews for covering the other side of this story. Not everyone wants to stop eating @BenJerryCanada ice cream because they are sharing truths about the theft of Indigenous lands & supporting our calls for justice. #cdnpoli #landback

Canada won’t be cancelled if you hit pause on the party, it is still legally Canada Day. Nor will history be erased. Most families cancel birthday parties when there is a death in the family. Are we family? #genocide #CancelCanadaDay youtube.com/watch?v=ra5l6e…

It goes without saying but must be said that if this were the other way around & Mi'kmaw people were threatening lives of non-native fishermen we'd see DFO RCMP & DND storming Mi'kma'ki & violently arresting Mi'kmaw people. Do better @JustinTrudeau youtube.com/watch?v=zsNxrD…

Canada should be ashamed tonight how it let racism against Indigenous peoples fester & not only kill #ColtenBoushie but tell the world his killer is not guilty. Prayers & support to his family - we stand with you

Hey Canada are we family? If so I think you should cancel your birthday party & join Indigenous peoples in a day of mourning & collective reflection in honour of 100's of kids who died in residential schools. #genocide #CancelCanadaDay #residentialschools youtube.com/watch?v=ra5l6e…
