Jerome Turner, a reporter at Canadian news website Ricochet, was prevented by police from driving to a protest site and was detained for eight hours. He was reporting on a police raid in Wet’suwet’en territory. The Wet’suwet’en’s indigenous leaders oppose the $6.6 billion Coastal GasLink pipeline in their ancestral land, which is under construction to move fracked gas from B.C.’s northeast to LNG Canada’s export facility in Kitimat, B.C. The RCMP are dismantling Wet’suwet’en camps as they enforce an injunction first granted to Coastal Gaslink in December 2018 and then extended in December 2019. Canadian police is reported to often detain and obstruct journalists covering raid on pipeline protesters.
