What We Heard: A Report for the CRCC

We have completed our report for the CRCC (Civilian Review and Complaints Commission for the RCMP) in which we were contracted to collect personal statements from individuals who were directly impacted by the conduct of C-IRG (Community-Industry Response Group) between January 1, 2017, and December 31, 2022, at any of the following locations:
-
Cooper Creek Cedar Ltd injunction on Salisbury Creek Forestry Road;
-
Coastal GasLink Ltd injunction on Wet'suwet'en traditional territory; and
-
Teal Cedar Products Ltd injunction in the Fairy Creek watershed.
The nature of our work for the CRCC involved us conducting interviews with impacted individuals in a decolonial, Indigenized, and trauma-informed manner. In short, we acted as truth gatherers, and it was our responsibility to share the truths of impacted individuals with respect to the manner in which they were affected by C-IRG.
The narratives shared with us have informed the What We Heard: Truth Gathering/Sharing with Turtle Island Law LLP for the Civilian Review and Complaints Commission for the RCMP (CRCC) report which can be read below.
