Isitatimende Sobumbano: I-Montreal for a World BEYOND War Isekela Wet'suwet'en Land Defense
Montreal for a World BEYOND War yisahluko se World BEYOND War, inhlangano yomhlaba wonke engenabudlova yokuqeda impi futhi isungule ukuthula okunobulungisa nokuqhubekayo. Isahluko sethu sihlose ukwenza iCanada ibe namandla okuthula emhlabeni, ngokususa izinganekwane ezisetshenziselwa ukuthethelela impi futhi inselele uhulumeni wethu ukulungisa izinqubomgomo eziqhubekisela phambili ubudlova nempi.
Siphila esikhathini esiyisimangaliso esimangalisayo nethuba lesintu. Ubhubhane olwaqala ngoMashi 2020 lusikhumbuza ngokufa kwethu kanye nezinto ezibalulekile—uhlu olungafaki ukutshalwa kwezimali noma amapayipi.
Amashumi amabili nanye sekuphele unyaka. ECanada, iBritish Columbia yacekelwa phansi ukusha kwamahlathi, kwalandelwa imvula nezikhukhula, kuyilapho ngoNovember, ugu oluseMpumalanga lubhuqwa yizimvula ezinamandla. Nokho, lezi zinhlekelele “zemvelo” ngokusobala zenziwe umuntu. Ngentwasahlobo edlule, uhulumeni we-BC wavumela inani elikhulu lehlathi ukuba ligawulwe. Naphezu kwemizamo ababhikishi, akekho noyedwa kwabaphethe owayenokuhlakanipha kokubona kusengaphambili ukuthi ukugawula amahlathi asendulo kwakuyoba njalo phazamisa ibhalansi yemvelo-woza ekwindla, amanzi abevame ukumuncwa izihlahla alahlwe emapulazini angaphesheya, okubangele izikhukhula ezinkulu.
Ngokufanayo, isinqumo sikahulumeni we-BC sokuvumela i-TC Energy Corp ukuthi yakhe ipayipi layo le-Coastal Gaslink (CGL) ukuze ilethe igesi ye-methane ephukile isuka enyakatho-ntshonalanga yeBritish Columbia iye endaweni yokuthekelisa i-LNG eWest Coast yinto engaphela kabi esintwini. Uhulumeni we-BC wenze ngaphandle kwegunya—indawo okukhulunywa ngayo iyindawo yase-Wet'suwet'en, izinduna zofuzo ezingakaze ziyiyeke. Uhulumeni waseCanada usebenzise izaba zokuthi izikhulu zomkhandlu webhendi iWet'suwet'un ziwuvumile lo msebenzi—kodwa iqiniso liwukuthi labo hulumeni abasizayo awekho amandla omthetho endaweni engavunyelwe.
Noma kunjalo umsebenzi wokwakhiwa kwepayipi waqhubeka futhi abe-Wet'suwet'un baphoqeleka ukuthi baziphindiselele, ngokuvimba ukufinyelela endaweni yokusebenza ye-CGL. NgoFebhuwari 2020, amaphoyisa ahlomile ehla nezindiza ezinophephela emhlane nezinja ukuze abophe othisha base-Wet'suwet'en, enganakile indida yalokhu kungenelela, ezinyangeni ezine ngemuva kokuthi uhulumeni kaHorgan we-NDP esayine uMthethosivivinywa C-15, okuhloswe ngawo ukusebenzisa imigomo ye-NDP. Isimemezelo Se-UN Samalungelo Abantu Bomdabu singena emthethweni waseCanada. E-Yintah nakulo lonke elaseCanada, kwaboshwa abantu abangaba ngu-80.
Naphezu kwemibhikisho esabalele kanye nokuvinjwa kwezitimela okwalandela, i-federal Liberals kanye nohulumeni we-NDP we-BC bahlala beqinile ekuzimiseleni kwabo ukuqhubeka nephrojekthi ehlanganisa izindinganiso zamakholoni zomuntu ngamunye, ukuzuza kwezimali, kanye nobugovu phezu kwemvelo ngokumelene namagugu endabuko omphakathi, ukwabelana kanye inhlonipho ngomhlaba wemvelo.
Futhi ngoNovemba 18 no-19, 2021, iRoyal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) yenza ukuhlasela kwezempi e-Wet'suwet'en Territory kwaphinde kwaboshwa. Isebenzisa izimbazo, amasaha, izibhamu, nezinja ezihlaselayo, i-RCMP ibophe abantu abangaphezu kuka-30 okuhlanganisa nezingqapheli zezomthetho, izintatheli, abadala bendabuko, kanye nothisha, okuhlanganisa no-Molly Wickham (Sleydo), okhulumela umndeni wakwaGidim'ten. Uhulumeni wabe esebakhulula laba bantu—kodwa ithemba lisamile lokuthi kuzoba nesikhathi esilandelayo, nesilandelayo. Ngesikhathi lapho wonke umhlaba usenkingeni, futhi udinga ukuqhela kumafutha ezinto ezimbiwa phansi, uhulumeni waseCanada uzimisele ngokuphusha ipayipi endaweni yabomdabu.
Montreal for a World BEYOND War ngalokhu sibeka ubumbano lwethu nabantu base-Wet'suwet'en ekwedeleni kwabo i-Justin Trudeau Liberals, federally, kanye ne-John Horgan NDP, ngo-BC.
- Siyahlonipha futhi siyabazisa ubukhosi babantu baseWet'suwet'en ezindaweni zabo zendabuko. NgoJanuwari 4, 2020, izinduna zamafa e-Wet'suwet'un zakhipha isaziso sokuxoshwa kwa-CGL, namanje namanje.
- Sibongela ukuzidela okwenziwa abaholi abafana no-Molly Wickham mayelana nesikhathi sabo, amandla kanye nokuphila kahle ngokomzimba futhi sibonga kakhulu ngemizamo yabo yobuqhawe, njengoba sinamahloni ngohulumeni wethu.
- Sicela uhulumeni wethu ayeke ukusebenza kuleli payipi legesi ye-methane elidukile, asuse bonke abasebenzi bamapayipi e-Yintah, ayeke ukuhlukumeza abantu bomdabu ezindaweni zabo, futhi enze izinxephezelo zempahla ecekelwe phansi.
Sishayela ihlombe futhi sinanela isimemo sokwenza okuthile esivela kumbhali wendabuko u-Jesse Wente encwadini yakhe Abahlanganisiwe:
Yeka ukusetshenziswa okungapheli. Misa umsebenzi ongapheli wokondla lokho kudla. Misa ukuqoqwa kwayo yonke into, ngabambalwa. Misa amaphoyisa; bayeke bangasibulali, bayeke ukusichukuluza ukuze basibophe. Yeka ubuzwe obuphuphuthekisa abaningi ekuhlulekeni nasenkohlakalweni yabaholi babo, obudala uqhekeko lapho kudingeka sithembele kakhulu komunye nomunye. Yeka ukugcina abantu bempofu futhi begula. Nje. Ima."
UWente uthi:
"Engikucelayo manje ukuthi nonke ... nilahle ukwesaba kwenu ngekusasa elingaziwa futhi namukele lesi sikhathi njengethuba lokwakha izwe iCanada ehlale ifisa ukuba yilo—lelo ezenza sengathi yilo—eliqaphelayo. ukwehluleka okungenakugwenywa okwakhelwe kukoloniyalizim, okuqaphela ubukhosi boMdabu njengobubalulekile ekufezekisweni kobukhosi baseCanada. Lena iCanada okhokho bethu ababeyicabanga lapho besayina izivumelwano zokuthula nobungane: iqoqo lezizwe, eziphila ngokuthanda kwazo, zabelane umhlaba ngokuhlanganyela.”
