WINNIPEG, Manitoba, Canada -- Native defenders are preparing for a possible police raid by noon, to remove their road barricade, as they demand a search of landfills for murdered Native women. Family members of murdered women believed to be in the landfills are at the barricade. The Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs is preparing for a press conference here.
Protectors blocked the entrance to the Brady Road landfill Thursday afternoon after the Manitoba government announced it would not support a search at the nearby Prairie Green landfill, north of Winnipeg, for the remains of two Indigenous women. Protectors were served with an injunction to remove the road barricade by Monday at noon.
With support flowing in, Alfred Bone Shirt, Lakota, said, "Saying prayers for your protection, safety, and good outcome for Justice for these Ladies and families, my thoughts are with you, from Sicangu Lakota lands aka Rosebud, South Dakota."
Camp Morgan has been on-site at the Brady Landfill for more than seven months in protest of the way the Winnipeg Police Service investigated cases involving missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls after police found partial remains of Rebecca Contois at the city-run landfill in June.
