Protesters ordered to vacate camp in Alberta amid tensions with drilling company
Protesters occupying a camp established by a First Nation in northern Alberta to defy drilling operations on its traditional lands have been ordered to vacate. The Woodland Cree First Nation asserts its right to meaningful consultation and ultimate authority over industrial development on its traditional territories, while company officials argue otherwise. Despite a court injunction, protesters remain at the camp, vowing to defend their rights until negotiations with Obsidian resume.
