Late last night, Indigenous peoples, Black Lives Matter activists and settler allies erected a tipi on Parliament Hill after being blocked by police for several hours. Our Political Director Brent Patterson was there... with his family helping to put the tipi up.
A Reuters news story says ING Bank is refusing to finance Canadian pipeline and tar sands projects due to concerns over climate change and First Nations rights.
