Attawapiskat Chief Theresa Spence is in her 20th day (as of Dec 30, 2012) of a hunger strike to support First Nations peoples all over Canada, because of bills recently passed by the Canadian Government, headed by Prime Minister Stephen Harper, and the future effect of these bills on the natives peoples, as well as because of horrible CURRENT conditions for First Nations peoples all over Canada. These bills will even have effects on the drinking water of people in the United States. The movement IdleNoMore has sprung up everywhere over the holidays, and Native peoples in both countries are meeting in public places to sing and drum and dance, to show solidarity and support.
Please act IMMEDIATELY to urge Harper to meet with Spence NOW, before she dies. Please show her that the US cares!
