Idle No More Voices

This is such an empowering and stong young lady, Zondra “Zoey” Roy, with kind words for the future. She has experienced and participated in many “Idle No More” matters; some including visiting chemical-contamination sites on the Canadian Reserve, Blockades, and joining in song with a hand drum. Zoey is an enthisiest for the rights of Indigenous peoples and challenges us all to “wake up” and recognize the future happenings.
Idle No More is a grassroots movement that cannot go ignored.
First Nations people cannot be ignored.
Our Mother Earth cannot be ignored.
… Bill C-45 cannot be ignored.
