“This is a time of monumental change in this country and across North America.'
Dutcher took to Twitter to ask N.B. Premier Blaine Higgs how he’d be addressing the situation, and requested that he meet with community members at the walk. He didn’t receive a response.I am deeply saddened to learn of an incident last night on the Metepenagiag First Nation that resulted in the death of a man. Marcia and I want to extend our deepest condolences to everyone involved, including the families, friends and communities affected by this loss.
“This is a time of monumental change in this country and across North America — trust and believe that these struggles are connected,” said Dutcher.aren’t necessarily the same, in Canada or the U.S., these communities are connected by the forces that oppress them, rather than serve and protect them. “That connection I hope can be made clear,” he said. “We can move in solidarity with our Black brothers and sisters, because we’re tired — enough is enough.”
