THUNDER BAY — Fort William Chief Michele Solomon marched with leaders, Grassy Narrows citizens, and concerned people in opposition to a nuclear waste storage site near Ignace on July 4 in Thunder Bay. The rally and march, which began at Waverley Park and ended at the Spirit Garden on the waterfront, was jointly organized by citizens from Grassy Narrows and representatives from Fort William.
“It’s really beautiful and overwhelming the number of people that have come out to show solidarity [with] our collective effort, our collective interests in saying no to nuclear waste because one voice alone is not enough to put a stop to nuclear waste coming through our communities,” Chief Solomon says. “The leadership of Fort William First Nation has certainly made their voice clear in opposing nuclear waste being transported through our traditional territory, and we stand in solidarity with all the people that have joined together to be strong against this.”
