As New Democrats, we are angered by the BC NDP government’s actions in Wet’suwet’en territory and distressed by the Federal NDP's response.
We know many young activists in our party feel the same—and some are now tearing up their memberships.

As New Democrats, we are angered by the BC NDP government’s actions in Wet’suwet’en territory and distressed by the Federal NDP's response.
We know many young activists in our party feel the same—and some are now tearing up their memberships.
Premier John Horgan has said that “free prior and informed consent is what everyone would expect of their neighbour and what we expect from those who want to do business in B.C.”
We agree. But consent is meaningless if a “no” is answered by the barrel of a gun.
The Wet’suwet’en land defenders are giving us an opportunity to change course: to be unequivocal in support for Indigenous rights and title and meet the challenge of the climate crisis by halting all new fossil fuel infrastructure.
The NDP is federated, which means that our provincial wings and federal party are bound in a single structure. What concerns one concerns all, and therefore every New Democrat has a moral obligation to speak out.
We uplift the words of the Young New Democrats of Quebec, and call on all party members to add their name to this statement.
These young members are on the right side of history.
The party should be too.
