Elsipogtog: No Fracking Way!
Video by Devil Dog Productions, Posted to Youtube July 7, 2014
October 2013 the Royal Canadian Mounted Police descended on a peaceful anti-fracking protest led by the Mi’kmaq of Elsipogtog and their allies. In this film the voices of some of the people involved in the anti-fracking movement talk about what happened and why they took the stand against hydraulic fracturing and how the heavy handed police response has affected their people.

I’m deeply disturbed by the pepper praying of an elder and one or more other women and surely men and probably children too. I stand with you to protect the water and life on earth in general. These multi-national corporarions are psychopathic. Profit motive rules. Good for the stockholders. Ptew! It disturbs me deeply to see and feel the violent response to citizens protecting their constitutional rights to their clean water on their own land.
