Speaking from the World Oceans Day Anti Tar Sands Pipeline Rally held in Vancouver BC:

Crystal Lameman from the Beaver Lake Cree Nation whose homelands are in the path of the largest industrial project on earth. Their courageous fight is to stop this First Nations Land Grab & also to preserve the quality of air and water all life depends upon.

This has also now become part of the world's climate change fight - to prevent expansion of the Alberta Tar Sands developments in Alberta & the increasing toxic oil spills which are the end result result.
