We'd like to extend a big thank you to the organizers and attendees of the 100 Drums for Water, Land and Unity event that is taking place in Merritt this weekend. We were honored to play for you. Thank you for the delicious salmon, bannok, soapberries, stories, dances, and for your ongoing resistance to industrial projects that continue to put your communities at risk. . . . . #solidarity #shulus #100drums #communityevent #gratitude #stoppipelines
