wE ARE A national coalition of impacted communities, legal associations, politicians, grassroots groups and human rights organiSations THAT haVE come together to demand the Immediate suspension ANd abolition of the RCMP’s Community-Industry Response Group
Climate change threatens every part of the planet. In B.C. we have a paramilitary police force that enables it. Abolish the C-IRG.
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 indigenous territories, without consent. This is just another extension of the RCMP’s original task- to remove and separate people from the land and enforce colonial rule. They do not keep us safe, they protect capital. ABOLISH CIRG!
