#BraveHeartSociety Issues Urgent Warning on #ArtificialIntelligence and #DataCenters

By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, Jan. 8, 2026

Excerpt: "#FaithSpottedEagle, #Ihanktonwan, delivered an urgent warning today about artificial intelligence and data centers, imperiling the future of our water.

" 'I come to you on this beautiful day with an urgent message. Many times in our past as #NativePeople various #messengers have come to warn us of frightening, hurtful invasions that are coming. There is one coming immediately -- and it is here and it is called artificial intelligence."

"Spotted Eagle said artificial intelligence is developing these data centers, and they are sounding the alarm, to all relatives, including the non-Native people, that this is really going to be the last blow to our land and water.

" 'It takes billions of water to run these data centers, and it is known to enhance cancer, it is just a multiple of dangers that are coming.'

" 'So our main concern is the unborn, we have to be at this point in history,' warned Spotted Eagle, director of the Women's #OhitikaOkodakiciye (Brave Heart Society) and chair of the Ihanktonwan Treaty Committee.

" 'Just like #ThomasBanyacya, #SittingBull, and #ChiefSeattle, they foresaw the future and we are seeing the future right this minute, and so we ask, implore you to join us, united together, as relatives as all races, to stop these data centers from stealing our water.'

" 'The invasion is coming again.'

"Speaking in an urgent video address today, #ElijahSmall, biologist for the Brave Heart Society, joined Spotted Eagle and described how the data centers bring an unbelievable harm to the communities.

" 'These data centers are energy consumptive. They warm the river water and dump that water back into our rivers and streams. This could have a profound effect on both the natural environment and the fish that we rely upon.' "

A decade after Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada: 94 Calls to Action report was released - Provincial & federal governments are still actively violating #UNDRIP & using taxpayers funds to fight #Indigenous #FirstNations in courts.

PDF of the TRC Calls to Action:

This is ongoing #capitalist driven #colonialism.
It was wrong before. It's wrong now.
I don't care WTF any government PR says about respecting & honouring #NativePeople & wanting to help First Nation communities, when they're whitewashing/greenwashing & being exploitive divide to conquer, greedy jerks.

#ForestProtectors Arrested at #FairyCreek

By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, August 16, 2023

"Three forest protectors were arrested on Tuesday protecting the old-growth forests west of Victoria, as Canada continues to target #NativePeople with police operatives protecting the interest of destructive industries. The police ops are #BritishColumbia's C-IRG, the Community #Industry Response Group.

"Mourning the invasion of the #MilitarizedPolice squad who arrested the #ForestDefenders, who were his guests, #Pacheedaht #FirstNation Elder Bill Jones said, 'We are at the end times of our great forests.'

"Abolish C-IRG said, 'Due to the increasing amount of #indigenous-led anti-resource extraction movements in British Columbia, the Community-Industry Response Group was born. C-IRG is unique to British Columbia. They are militarized, have no budget limit, and the officers get paid handsomely to force #pipelines, #mines, #dams, and #logging through unceded #IndigenousTerritories, without consent. This is just another extension of the #RCMP’s original task- to remove and separate people from the land and enforce #ColonialRule. They do not keep us safe, they protect #capital."

#ForestProtectors Arrested at #FairyCreek

By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, August 16, 2023

"Three forest protectors were arrested on Tuesday protecting the old-growth forests west of Victoria, as Canada continues to target #NativePeople with police operatives protecting the interest of destructive industries. The police ops are #BritishColumbia's C-IRG, the Community #Industry Response Group.

"Mourning the invasion of the #MilitarizedPolice squad who arrested the #ForestDefenders, who were his guests, #Pacheedaht #FirstNation Elder Bill Jones said, 'We are at the end times of our great forests.'

"Abolish C-IRG said, 'Due to the increasing amount of #indigenous-led anti-resource extraction movements in British Columbia, the Community-Industry Response Group was born. C-IRG is unique to British Columbia. They are militarized, have no budget limit, and the officers get paid handsomely to force #pipelines, #mines, #dams, and #logging through unceded #IndigenousTerritories, without consent. This is just another extension of the #RCMP’s original task- to remove and separate people from the land and enforce #ColonialRule. They do not keep us safe, they protect #capital."

Next, the bark of the vine is rasped with a knife. This is a tedious step, but a very important one. You want to keep the vine intact while removing anything on the outside that may pollute the brew (lichen, moss...).
