Per S @RT83737705 Mar 18, 2025 Canada - one of the best countries to live in - but for who? There is an endless number of dire examples to how the Canadians have mistreated the First Nation population over the generations. It's no better than what has been going on in the US, and in relation to Canada's ostensible image as an environment friendly nation - think again. Oil is a big dirty and cruel business also in the planet's second largest country, and the regards to the well being of indigenous peoples come very much second, if it's present at all. Yintah profiles the Wetʼsuwetʼen First Nation, as they fight to protect their traditional lands from natural gas pipeline developments. The film has won or been nominated to at least seven awards, and just won the HUMAN Rights HUMAN Wrongs Main Award 2025, at this documentary festival in Oslo. In a wider issue it reflects the oil companies' true concerns about the climate, nature and indigenous peoples, so watch the film on Netflix and give it your ratings here, and at other film communities. That's the least you can do. See more Jim E @RT62503242 Nov 9, 2024 Good fIlm on resistance to the corrupt government and fossil fuels industry! See more David S @RT92978199 Oct 19, 2024 The commitment of the filmmakers matches that of the indigenous tribes. Both the camera crew and the resisters show absolute courage in the face of armed "terminators" working for the man. A byproduct of this intimate portrayal of imperial overlords perpetrating their past sins in the present is the hypocrisy of a Justin Trudeau who is happy to skewer the guardians of the land for the god of money.
