syilx Okanagan leaders are rejecting a proposed gravel pit mine in their homelands, as one expert says the province is violating DRIPA by moving the project forward.
"It’s shocking that they issued a permit."

Vancouver was once a living wage employer. Last January, city council ended that certification.
@christineeboyletried to re-instate it — but city council voted against it this week.

⚠️ #EACOP faces global backlash due to its environmental and documented human rights violations. China Re & SINOSURE should not be complicit in this issue. It's time for them to choose the right side of history and #InsureOurFuture. #StopEACOP!
