***** إغلاق الطريق القومي قمة التخلف و الجهل .... *****

Quote: Rail lines across Canada have been paralysed for almost two weeks after being blockaded by indigenous protesters and their supporters. The blockades were put in place in solidarity with Wet'suwet'en First Nation hereditary chiefs who oppose a natural gas pipeline in their traditional territory in the province of British Columbia (BC). The conflict began after police enforced a court injunction to clear Wet'suwet'en camps blocking a road leading to a work site for the pipeline. The economic impact of the rail blockades is beginning to be felt across industries and there are concerns about shortages of goods. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is under growing pressure to solve the conflict as trains remain idle. So what's at the core of the dispute؟
