Minn. (KEYC) - Demonstrators gathered Saturday in Minnesota Square Park to protest against the Enbridge Line 3 pipeline construction that is set to take place in Northern Minnesota.
“Everyone is here to help the environment basically. Without the land, the environment and the plants that are on it there’s nothing for us. Especially the water, the water is what gives us life and without water none of us can live,” Megan Schnitker chair of indigenous peoples day committee said.
Participants argued that the pipeline would not only hurt the environment, but that it’s a break in a treaty made with the indigenous population of that region.
