On september 27th, hundreds of social, environmental and popular organizations in the south of the city announce a strike in the entire basin of the Tunjuelo River. In the year 1988 the poorly named landfill Doña Juana began to function and today it receives around 7,000 tons of trash every day.
The protesters have been holding a round-the-clock peaceful strike in front of La Porfía, the 9-hectare lot purchased by Ecopetrol for drilling and exploration that has ironically been dubbed “Trogon 1”; ironically, because the trogon is a lovely, brightly coloured bird that has been displaced by all these months of constant earth moving with heavy machinery. It should be said that Repsol purchased 45% of the broader project called “Bloque CPO-9” that comprises five Meta municipalities.

On Sunday September 10, we mobilized in solidarity with the ongoing resistance against the extractive oil industry in Gaspésie, in particular, Junex and its investors. Corporations like Junex (and their investors) collude with provincial and federal governments. These collaborations exemplify how neoliberal capitalism (as the current economic and political context) functions to sustain the settler-colonial state of Canada.
