Continue reading →: Alberta-Canada Memorandum of Understanding is a slap in the face to Canadians, First Nations, and all future generations.
I’m angry, I’m disappointed, I’m tired, I’m confused. The recent Alberta-Canada Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) is a huge step backwards for Canada and an attack on First Nations.

The latest round of UN negotiations regarding an international Plastics Treaty (Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee on plastic pollution, including in the marine environment [INC-5.2]) have ended in failure and disappointment, again.
