Wochiigii lo: End of the Peace follows the struggles of Diane Abel and Chief Roland Willson of West Moberly First Nation as they battle the BC government against the construction of a multi-billion-dollar mega-dam along the Peace River (commonly known as Site C Dam). If constructed, it will give way to the extinction of their people’s culture by destroying the land and water they have occupied for over 13,000 years. While crown corporations and political parties collude against their traditional way of life, the desire to fight for their nation is embedded in these two resilient individuals.

Wochiigii lo: End of the Peace

Diane Abel and Chief Roland Willson from West Moberly First Nations are part of a coalition of resistance fighting to preserve their treaty and cease construction of a multi-billion-dollar mega-dam along the Peace River in British Columbia, Canada.

In this Poetic License instalment, meet spoken word artist Sarah Lewis.&nbsp;Hailing from Curve Lake First Nation, the Ojibwe/Cree poet was recently appointed as the first poet laureate of Nogojiwanong-Peterborough. Not one to take this appointment lightly, Lewis knows her presence and voice is a form of resistance, saying:&nbsp;"My existence is a form of activism because we weren't supposed to be here." Watch Sarah Lewis perform&nbsp;Warrior Cry —&nbsp;a piece Lewis describes as being written from the perspective of a dangerously empowered Indigenous woman.&nbsp; Courtesy of CBC Arts. <img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/eventive-static/0ca47eccf58e7b81179ba3eaddb964a9.png" width="178"> SPONSORED BY: <img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/eventive-static/84adb4161bbf62b1e9e1b7e7836c182f.png" style="max-width: 100%;"> <a href="https://www.greenup.on.ca/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Website</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ptbogreenup" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a> | <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ptbogreenup/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/ptbogreenup" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Twitter</a> For more than 25 years, GreenUP has been Peterborough region’s leading organization focused on climate action, environmental education, and community resilience.
