The report indicates that new investments by Canadian mining companies in Tigray have increased as the region has been plunged into a major humanitarian crisis from military attacks by the Ethiopian and Eritrean government, whom the United Nations has accused of deliberately “starving Tigrayans.”
The U.N has warned that hundreds of thousands of people in Tigray face starvation, as the Ethiopian military—backed by Eritrean troops and militia from Ethiopia’s Amhara region—have raped women and children, committed massacres, burned crops, and blocked aid to the region as they conduct a lop-sided military offensive against the Tigray People
Yes this is definitely all of Canada doing this, not a corporation.
Do you say things like this when a company from your home country invests in a troubled region? Is it their government and peoples that you hold at fault? Or is this a problem with capitalism, and you have some motive to disparage Canada as a whole for the actions of a few rich assholes that the average Canadian would gladly have arrested for these actions?
What is your motive here, exactly?
Ethiopia Is Committing Genocide Against the Tigrayan People, Say Priests From Region
During this genocide against the state of tigray canda and it's black-face president prospected gold mines in tigray. You canadians supported a genocide to steal tigrayan gold. I wonder if you would still feel the same if it was your mum and your daughter being sexually abused or your cousin or dad being put against a wall and shot.
Canada's Indigenous Genocide Is Ongoing | Truthout
Are you insane? "you canadians" lmao, yes I went to Africa myself and attacked these people, what country are you from exactly? Are you personally responsible for every thing every company of your country ever did?
What. Is. Your. Motive? Stop dodging the question, why are you attempting to defame the entire country of Canada and all its citizens?
edit LMAO judging by your post history about American politics, you're American aren't you, how the fuck do you sit there and judge Canada for the actions of one corporation, your entire countries corporate history is drenched in international blood, what a fucking hypocrite.
What is yours?
Don't dodge the question.
Canadian Complicity in Tigrayan Genocide in 2020-today
These are valid criticisms but you approached this conversation in the worst way possible. If you are trying to get people on your side, this aint it dude.
Has the Canadian premier’s shameful silence been bought with Tigray gold?
Recognize genocide in Ethiopia’s Tigray region, experts urge Canadian committee
