A coalition that includes Wet'suwet'en hereditary chiefs, the B.C. Civil Liberties Association and the Union of B.C. Indian Chiefs is accusing the RCMP of "improper and unlawful actions" in enforcing a checkpoint and exclusion zone near the Coastal GasLink work site.
The groups are calling on the chair of the Civilian Review and Complaints Commission for the RCMP — which is not part of the RCMP — to initiate a policy complaint and public interest investigation into the actions of officers on Morice West Forest Service Road in Wet'suwet'en territory.
