After listening to all of the stories from various indigenous groups around the world, the statement that stood out to me the most was from a group of indigenous women who said that "Canada is a corporation not a country". That statement sums up pretty well how our social systems (governments, businesses, industries, etc.) have developed their relationship with nature and how it affects BIPOC communities in alarmingly disproportionate ways. I strongly believe that the caretakers of the land, those who have been here for generations, those who continue to cultivate it, and those who take responsibility for making sure it sustains future generations, should have a say in how and what the land is used for.
