I say this every month, but October is particularly good. From the Innuit Art - Kinngait 2025 calendar.
Apologies, the photo doesn't do it justice.

Hard to describe this without interpreting. There are ravens perched on the very tops of 16 telephone poles, 'randomly' placed, of varying heights, with a power line stretched from pole to pole. It's a stonecut print in muted primary colours on an almost overwhelmingly stark white background. Green for the upper group and red for the lower group. My description is inadequate.

From 2020. Don't believe that #QuebecHydro are for preserving nature, or the will of the voters, or respecting #NativeAmerican rights. They are all about making a buck!

Indigenous group launch $4B lawsuit over huge hydro power project

by Marc Montgomery, October 7, 2020

"The #Innu say the project, begun in the late 1960’s and completed in the 1970’s, has flooded a vast area of ancestral lands causing #environmental and #cultural harm to their people.

"In a statement, Innu Grand Chief Etienne Rich said, 'Over 50 years ago, #HydroQuébec and the provincial utility in #Newfoundland and #Labrador now called #NalcorEnergy, through the Churchill Falls (Labrador) Corporation, stole our land and flooded it in order to take advantage of the enormous hydro potential of the #ChurchillFalls,' adding, 'This project was undertaken without consulting us and without our consent'.

"The Innu leaders said the flooded area of over 5,000 sq/km has covered traditional #BurialGrounds, hunting areas, #caribou migration paths and habitat for wildlife they depend on. They also said there was no #environmental assessment of the mega project, the second largest power generation project in #Canada, and among the biggest in the world."
