NEW: The Senate Committee on Human Rights will be wrapping up its study of C-9 in the first week of June. We are worried that the committee won't make changes to the bill to ensure our rights are protected. Let's keep up the pressure by calling Senators on the committee! iclmg.ca/call-to-stop-c-9

The Xinka People denied consent for the restart of Vancouver-based Pan American Silver's Escobal mine in Guatemala. When will the company admit it and take steps to definitively close operations? earthworks.org/blog/one-yea...

The Canadian government now has less than 45 days to respond to this important petition calling on it to: 1️⃣ Reaffirm the Xinka people’s right to say no to the Escobal mine in Guatemala 2️⃣ Take action to protect Xinka defenders and ensure their safety and security.

Colombian, Latin American orgs and allies call on gov of Gustavo Petro, co-host of the first fossil fuel phase out conference, to withdraw from international agreements that let corporations sue governments to the detriment of needed protections for people and planet ips-dc.org/letter-to-th...

A timely read on how ISDS can delay or deter climate action. These secretive corporate tribunals pose real risks to public interest regulation. Colombia’s president recently announced plans to withdraw. @theecologist.org #StopISDS #ISDS theecologist.org/2026/apr/24/...

The Stop ISDS coalition urges the govt of Gustavo Petro to act on his promise and to withdraw Colombia from the ISDS regime. Protections for water, land, and life should not be subject to a system designed to favor transnational corporations. Statement: terra-justa.org/dc_2017/wp-c...

“As women defenders of Kimsakocha who plant, sow and care for the land, and produce natural food without chemicals, we denounce before the Canadian embassy the criminalization we are facing, which seeks to obstruct the peaceful resistance we are carrying out against mining in the páramo.” Ruth Pugo

Más de 50 organizaciones señalaron que la carta enviada por el nuevo gobierno hondureña es "una “señal de sumisión” al capital transnacional" orientada a "la protección de intereses corporativos, incluso cuando estos han generado conflictos ... en distintos territorios." criterio.hn/rechazan-ret...

NUEVO: Tras la intervención EE UU en las elecciones hondureñas, IPS se une a organizaciones hondureñas e internacionales para denunciar el retorno a un sistema orientado a proteger a los inversores en detrimento del pueblo hondureño. #StopISDS

NEW: On the heels of U.S. intervention in Honduran elections, IPS joins Honduran partners and international allies to denounce a return to a system meant to maximize protections for investors to the detriment of the Honduran people. #StopISDS Statement:

Canadian mining companies are so accustomed to greedily claiming control over what's not theirs, Aris Mining thought it could claim a water champion prize it had never been awarded! Water defenders of Santander, Colombia who are resisting Aris' Soto Norte gold and copper project wisely fought back!

"The Canadian gov can support Ecuadorian communities by not signing the Free Trade Agreement, not accepting destructive metal mining, and conducting a thorough investigation into companies that violating the rights of nature and human rights.” To Dundee Precious Metals: Hands off Kimsacocha!

Carrizalillo community members demand @EquinoxGoldCorp meet them half-way, pay them fairly for occupying their land or properly close the Los Filos mine. They urge @claudiasheinbaum.bsky.social to ensure the 🇨🇦 company respect the law. bit.ly/4sOSeLb

Insightful analysis of Mark Carney's Davos speech with reflections on political theatre that the Liberal Party has mounted in the past, contradictions with Carney's domestic policies and his outrageous investment in military expansion, tightly intertwined with the U.S. pca.st/episode/f74c...

"Carney’s critique ignores Canada’s own role in sustaining the structures he criticized. Chief among them are economic treaties that grant formidable rights to Canada’s influential mining sector and other multinational corporations."

Primero Honduras, luego Venezuela Repudiamos categóricamente la injerencia de Estados Unidos en procesos electorales y afirmamos el derecho inalienable de los pueblos a su autonomía y autodeterminación, frente a agendas que buscan imponer intereses corporativos ips-dc.org/aviso-primer...

At a moment when Canada’s sovereignty has itself been repeatedly threatened by Trump, it is not in Canada’s interest to set a precedent that international law is optional, selective, or contingent on political convenience.

Great short video from The Breach. Mark Carney and Canada’s premiers are trying to buy off Indigenous resistance. Indigenous organizer Janelle Lapointe explains that it’s just modern-day beads and trinkets to buy off resistance to destructive resource projects. breachmedia.ca/mark-carney-...

U.S. firm Kappes, Cassiday and Associates loses claim against Guatemala! From the Peaceful Resistance La Puya: "This project is so bad that the company couldn’t even defend it in an arbitration system designed to protect the investments of transnational corporations." ips-dc.org/water-defend...

Really shameful, even if unsurprising

The Institute for Policy Studies - Global Economy Program joins with organizations from around the world to express deep concern and solidarity with Misael Socorrás Ipuana and all the Indigenous and environment defenders in La Guajira, Colombia fighting to protect the Bruno River.

“It would seem like the U.S. is favoring, for ideological reasons, a narco-state to prevent the left from returning to power."

IPS-Global Economy pgm joins this call for a full audit of the Cobre Panama mine toward its definitive closure. Without a doubt, the billion-dollar ISDS suits brought against Panama by First Quantum and associates under the Panama-Canada FTA and other agreements are weakening the process #StopISDS

“Affected communities who have clean hands and real injuries still haven’t gotten justice or any meaningful remedies, while Chevron is poised to profit again.” - lawyer and author Judith Kimerling, who helped document Texaco-Chevron's operations in Ecuador

Canada is shamefully silent over communications from UN bodies concerned for Colombian water defenders who have been bravely standing up to Vancouver-based Aris Mining. For its part, the company minimizes the danger and denies responsibility, despite its subcontractor having circulated threats

By portraying military intervention as a response to drug trafficking, the “narco-terrorism” myth allows politicians to ignore all of the ways in which military intervention is a cause of drug trafficking.

Horrifying. It’s Election Day in Honduras and Trump has escalated US intervention. Worse, while supposedly “fighting drug trafficking and “narco-terrorism" … it now plans to pardon a high-level convicted drug-trafficker:” ex president Juan Orlando Hernandez www.hondurasnow.org/communique-c...

The mineral-intensive energy transition in Latin America is advancing in ways that undermine human rights and nature, pushing into fragile ecosystems, overriding community consent, and placing environmental defenders at growing risk. NEW from Viviana Herrera of @miningwatch.bsky.social:

U.S. investors suing Honduras abandoned social housing project after back to back tropical storms. “We were the ones who were harmed and swindled… They never gave us even minimal consideration or ever showed up in the community.” fpif.org/u-s-backed-h...

Can't agree more, very stupid decision from the Carney government!

In a context where Ecuador and Canada are seeking to ratify a FTA that primarily aims to increase Canadian mining investment in the country, this new blow to DPM also sends a strong message to Canada that Canadian mining investment is not welcome in Ecuador. #HandsoffKimsakocha #KimsakochaNoSeToca

Respect people's rights over corporate rights! As Ecuadorians head into a November 16 referendum on constitutional protections, Canada must stop promoting investor protections that threaten human rights. shorturl.at/qdBM1 @miningwatch.bsky.social @policyalternatives.ca @lughiotto.bsky.social
