River Run Toolkit – September 18th, 2024
Grange Park, Downtown Toronto
12pm Noon
On September 18th, 2024 at 12pm we invite you to walk with Grassy Narrows youth and community members to show that we are with them on their path to achieve mercury justice and freedom!
Grassy Narrows people are powerful leaders in the movement for Indigenous sovereignty and environmental justice. They have shown that together we can fight for justice against all odds and make real gains. But so much is still needed to right the wrong of mercury poisoning in Grassy Narrows.
RSVP here to say that you will show up in solidarity and walk with them in their fight for justice. RSVP is intended to help us plan for the day but is not mandatory to attend the even.
