What is the role of the Canadian government, or any government, in these cases?
Canada supports the right-wing government of Honduras that was installed via fraudulent elections ... because ...
As author and activist Yves Engler has highlighted, “A number of major Canadian corporations, notably Gildan and Goldcorp, were unhappy with some modest social democratic reforms implemented by [President] Zelaya.”I think far more effective would be consumer led boycotts, etc. against the companies. That has had more impact on companies like Nike, Apple, and others than the US government ever has.
Get back to us about how that goes ...
I think interfering with mining companies ability to raise funds in Canada is more effective.
Or maybe stop electing Canadian governments that support military regimes in other countries that push Indigenous people off their land to build Canadian mining operations.
Same story, different countries.
Canada's economic reliance on extraction industries is genocide at home and worldwide.
International Canadian mining companies have the worst record of Human Rights violations in the world.
We're experts: Canada exports genocide against Indigenous Peoples ...
long, well-established history of horrific and systemic human rights abuses at Canadian mine sites across the globe. Reports by respected organizations like Amnesty International, Mining Watch Canada, Human Rights Watch, Oxfam, the United Nations and countless others have detailed environmental and human rights abuses. Those include targeted assassinations, gang ****, violence against unarmed protesters, and the use of slave labour. Yet there are rarely any consequences for companies where they are headquartered and allowed to raise most of their money – namely, in Canada.
Successive Canadian governments have recognized there’s a problem but have responded with policies and oversight bodies that are powerless by design.Pretty words on paper ... and the genocide carries on ... 'the Canadian way'.
Happy Canada Day. Lol
