On the 7th of June, well over 2,000 water protectors descended on an Enbridge construction site for Line 3. Hundreds locked themselves to heavy equipment-and to a boat. Over 100 arrests were reported by midnight. The targetted pumping station site (like much of Line 3) is trespassing on Anishinaabe lands. This is an existential fight for the Anishinaabe, as one pipeline break could be the end of the wild rice beds.
