Not protesting a Canadian mining project it’s a Canadian’s mining project.
Please keep it straight. Our rich assholes are not polite.

It’s a mining company that is registered in Canada as it is a very favorable jurisdiction for mining companies. This is not the first instance of Canadian mining companies fucking up the environment in the global south and it wont be the last. Im no expert in international law but I feel like the Canadiam government could be doing more to discourage this kind of behavior from Canadian companies.
