Another campaign to protect traditional land is being launched by the KI First Nation in northern Ontario.14-paddlers, including several youth, embark on a 300-plus kilometre trip today on an ancient trading route.
Richard Anderson is the Watershed Coordinator for KI and he says mining companies continue to threaten their way of life.
The paddlers are calling on Ontario to respect their land before it gets poisoned by the companies.
Anderson says elders still use the water and the land.
The journey is expected to conclude on September 7th in Fort Severn.
