It’s a familiar story these days. Land defenders and activists blockade a road to try to prevent a pipeline or an oil terminal being built. Resource corporations go to court to get an injunction, then the RCMP move in and make arrests. Solidarity actions erupt, resulting in more injunctions and more arrests.

Irina Ceric is a lawyer and criminology instructor at Kwantlen Polytechnic University. She joins us in our studios.
