The Haudenosaunee…

The Haudenosaunee Confederacy Council issued a cease-and-desist order two years ago to stop Nestlé from taking the water. By requesting the permit and making plans to continue the water grab, BlueTriton is ignoring Indigenous sovereignty. Just like Nestlé did.

So while dozens of First Nations communities across Canada have not had access to safe drinking water for at least a year, BlueTriton is pumping clean water from Indigenous lands and bottling it for profit.

BlueTriton is betting that the increasing scarcity of clean water will make its investors rich. It’s clear that the corporation values profits over people. And that is why BlueTriton must be stopped.

Clean drinking water should be a human right for every single person living in our beautiful country. It is the government's job to protect us from corporate interests that harm us and harm our future. For too long our indigenous people have been stomped upon and ignored. It is time to stand up for them, because when we stand for indigenous sovereignty, we stand for Canada.
