As a Canadian I support this protest. We should not be destroying anyone’s water supply and shame on the company for doing so.

What is geoscience?
Geoscience (also called Earth Science) is the study of Earth. Geoscience includes so much more than rocks and volcanoes, it studies the processes that form and shape Earth's surface, the natural resources we use, and how water and ecosystems are interconnected. Geoscience uses tools and techniques from other science fields as well, such as chemistry, physics, biology, and math! Read more...

Yeah, but 14 million tons of gold, silver, and copper. Surely the people being poisoned would agree if they understood how much money that meant, right?
When you have 100k people your protests should stop asking.
Not protesting a "Canadian mining project" -- it's a Canadian's mining project.
Please keep it straight. Our rich assholes are not polite.
It's a mining company that is registered in Canada as it is a very favorable jurisdiction for mining companies. This is not the first instance of Canadian mining companies fucking up the environment in the global south and it wont be the last. Im no expert in international law but I feel like the Canadiam government could be doing more to discourage this kind of behavior from Canadian companies.
