Canadian Mining Companies against the poor Mexican People

I hope all the Canadians living in La Manzanilla read this and respond to the companies listed in Vancouver BC and Toronto. This is a real corporate terrorist attack against the people and the ecosystem of many estados in Mexico...even Jalisco so listen up. I watched the entire video that D posted as a response to Bruno, where activist Gloria spent 10+ years in prison for standing up to the corrupt Mexican federal gov't. and Guerrero state gov't. This is about local citizens forming their own police force and militia since the state of Guerrero (and for that matter Jalisco) governments are so corrupt. What is happening all over Mexico since NAFTA was passed by Mexico in what 2000? Many were opposed to NAFTA because it has a clause that overrules the 1917 constitution that forbids foreigners and foreign companies from engaging in operations affecting oil, energy, mining and gov't. This allowed Canadian interests to pour money into corrupt pockets to openly explore for gold and silver and get the state governments to use the army and the state police to force the ejiditarios to leave and give up their land and mineral rights...sound like Tenacatita? Gloria and the EPRI were helping the farmers in the mountain villages in Guerrero who were being attacked by the police and army under the pretext of being marihuana farmers. Funny that the drug lords of the area were also threatening them if they didn't produce the weed as tribute. Excerpt from Daniel'sprevious post: "Reporter - Gloria met Ramiro when he was 18 and had just joined the ERPI. She reflected on the price he and others had paid for standing up to the powerful intersection of State and commercial forces operating in Guerrero. Ramiro was murdered by Canadian mining interests using the army. Today things seem to be at a standoff..for one, the mining operations use cyanide to process the precious metals and then dump the shit into the water system ruining the rural ecology and probably killing those who drink the water.
