SUMMARY:Keep the Momentum Going: All Eyes on Wet'suwet'en Calling Spree
DESCRIPTION:As the RCMP remains on sovereign Wet’suwet’en territory imm
 ediately to help the government push through the CGL pipeline\, blockades 
 and actions continue across so-called Canada in solidarity with the Wet'su
 wet'en hereditary chiefs in demanding that BC\, Canada\, the RCMP and CGL 
 respect their authority.\n\nThis Saturday\, help us keep the pressure up a
 nd keep #AllEyesOnWetsuweten by joining Leap UofT\, the Centre for Sexual 
 Diversity Studies\, and the Graduate Students’ Association of Italian St
 udies for a calling and social media spree\, where land defenders will be 
 speaking about their ongoing work. Let's make sure none of the officials w
 ith the power to pull the RCMP out get a moment of peace until they do so!
 \n\nLocation: Junior Common Room\, University College\n\nWet'suwet'en sove
 reignty and law must be respected--we stand with the hereditary chiefs in 
 demanding that the RCMP withdraw from Wet'suwet'en land!\n\nThere will be 
 snacks!\n\n***Access notes:\nDue to the UC Revitalization Project Construc
 tion\, there will be no wheelchair-accessible entrance to University Colle
 ge until further notice. Since the UC Quad is a high-traffic construction 
 area during the project\, the entry must be restricted as a safety precaut
 ion. We hope to have accessible entrance re-opened as soon as possible. If
  you plan to attend and need accessibility assistance\, please notify the 
 event organizers at paolo.frasca@utoronto.ca to arrange an escort through 
 the construction zone.\n\nFor information on all construction-related clos
 ures and a list of available entrances\, please visit: https://www.uc.utor
 onto.ca/uc-under-construction\n\n***Background:\n\nTuesday\, January 7th 2
 020 marked one year since the violent raid on the unarmed Gidimt'en checkp
 oint and Wet'suwet'en people. At the end of December 2019\, Coast Gas Link
  was granted an permanent injunction by the Supreme Court of British Colum
 bia.\n\nAfter weeks of intimidation and harassment by the RCMP following t
 he injunction\, and the establishment of an illegal exclusion zone that de
 nied Wet'suwet'en people and their guests access to their territory\, nume
 rous violent arrests were made at various camps. Matriarchs and land defen
 ders were arrested at gun point and dragged off their land.\n\nDespite mis
 leading media that the RCMP has offered to "withdraw" or stand down\, the 
 RCMP is still present on sovereign Wet'suwet'en territory. They continue t
 o increase harassment and surveillance of the camps. The demands of the he
 reditary chiefs have not been met.\n\nOur academic institutions are compli
 cit in this violent violation of Wet'suwet'en sovereignty. Many institutio
 ns have declined to make a statement\, and maintain Foundation and pension
  investments in TC Energy and the Coastal Gaslink Pipeline.\n\n***Leap Uof
 T is an action group of OPIRG Toronto***
