On September 27th, 6,000 Land Defence Alliance community members and supporters marched to Queen’s Park. We sent Doug Ford a clear message: we stand united to protect the lands and waters of these five First Nations. 

Ford’s No Show 

Land Alliance Chiefs went to Queen’s Park on September 26th and invited Doug Ford to meet with them. They set a table, brought him a chair, and asked him to sign a declaration of respect. Ford refused.

• First Nations leaders back at Queen’s Park to push Ontario Premier Ford to end mining activity on their land 
• Several First Nations from Ring of Fire region Demand Meeting with Premier Doug Ford 

In the wake of Doug Ford’s silence, we took to the streets to make it clear that these First Nations do not stand alone and will not be ignored.
