PRESS RELEASE: JANUARY 10, 2013
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
IDLE
NO MORE
Idle
No More grassroots Founders and Organizers from across Canada, in
Solidarity with Common Causes - a new initiative bringing together social
justice, environmental, labour and other Activist Groups…
- UNITED we are
planning IDLE
NO MORE WORLD DAY OF ACTION on January 28th,
2013 #J28.
This day of action will peacefully protest attacks on Democracy,
Indigenous Sovereignty, Human Rights and Environmental Protections when
Canadian MPs return to the House of Commons on January 28th. As a grassroots
movement, clearly no political organization speaks for Idle No More. This
movement is of the people… For The People! #IDLENOMOREFTP
The
Vision of IDLE NO MORE revolves around Indigenous Ways of Knowing rooted in
Indigenous Sovereignty to protect water, air, land and all creation for future
generations.
The Conservative government bills beginning with Bill C-45
threaten Treaties and this Indigenous Vision of Sovereignty.
The
Goal of the movement is education and the revitalization of Indigenous peoples
through Awareness and Empowerment. IDLE
NO MORE has successfully encouraged knowledge sharing of Indigenous Sovereignty
and Environmental Protections.
This message has been heard around the world and the world is
watching how Canada responds to the message sent by many INM Supporters.
INM urges the government of Canada to repeal all legislation;
which violates Treaties, Indigenous Sovereignty and subsequently Environmental
Protections of land and water.
INM is grateful to many leaders who have supported this vision
and the movement of the grassroots people. “The Treaties are the last line of defense to protect water and
lands from destruction,” stated Oren Lyons, Faithkeeper Turtle Clan, Onondaga
Nation Council of Chiefs.
IDLE
NO MORE IS THE PEOPLE…FOR THE PEOPLE!
