The Supreme Court of Canada has quashed plans for seismic testing in Nunavut, delivering a major victory to Inuit who argued they were inadequately consulted before the National Energy Board gave oil companies the green light to conduct the disruptive activity.

In a unanimous decision handed down Wednesday, written by justices Karakatsanis and Brown, the top court ruled the NEB's consultation process in Clyde River was "significantly flawed" and gave little if any, consideration to the treaty rights of Inuit and their reliance on marine mammals for subsistence.

The Inuit have said the sound wave technology a Norwegian consortium sought to use in search of oil would have profoundly affected marine life in the area."What a victory for us, " said Jerry Natanine, a former mayor of Clyde River who pushed this case for years, after the ruling was released. "Justice was on our side because we're fighting for our way of life, our hunting and gathering culture — whaling and sealing — that's our lifestyle, that's what we want to protect."

Global warming and climate change were always like stormy clouds lingering at the back of my mind but this video made it so much more real and imminent...I have no words.

LET'S ALL HELP SAVE THE ARCTIC...




...AND THE WORLD!

[gabrielalvinvaughan]

This makes me sad. We as humans are so focused on escaping earth and moving onto another habitual planet instead of protecting the only one we have been given. Why can we spend so much on space travel but it's considered pointless to provide environmental help? #savethearctic

[kaizov]

We need to develop space tech AND protect our planet.
If we don't do both we are doomed.

[sevinm]

I'm at a point where I wouldn't even be sad if humanity ended. Earth & animals deserve to be free of our destruction.

[ASolitaryHowl]

This is outrageous. Thanks for sharing in Inhuit's story!

[vannam]

We cant keep going on like this. People need to take this seriously and KICKOUT congressmen that dont take this seriously.

[penelope]

It makes me soo sick how people don't care about there life's and everyone else life's just for money!!!!

[Naiadryade]

Thank you so much for making this video!!

[natlexus]

Can we get an update it's been a year later?

[jaketerrell]

Share this with everyone on all social media to get the word out until they list it live.

[dewblossoms]

the fact that those prices exist in a developed country is crazy. wish trudeau would do something about this

[DiaUp]

why is this video hidden? You want this to reach as many people as possible, if you really want to make a change with it, the YouTube channel should take a back seat. 2k views won't do much.

[katlinn]

Come on Canada! You suppose to be GOOD

[AskKimberly]

My dad is the president and CEO of Sable Natural Resources, a oil company, and I will do my best to get the word out and talk to him about this ongoing situation.
