Canada’s mining industries have a horrific violent history whether it’s in Latin America, Africa or within Canada from its very “creation” settler colonialism. Canada has no right to interfere but it obviously will as it’s never been peaceful or neutral.
The President of Burkina Faso orders the expulsion of a Canadian mining company from the country and the confiscation of 200 kilograms of gold.
Are they playing with fire? Canada may send their army?
