Guns, Pot & Illegal Dumping in Mohawk Territory: Riding Along with Kanesatake Perimeter Security

Описание: In this episode of The Week Is Rover, Chris and Justin are in Kanesatake, Kanien’kehá:ka (Mohawk) Territory, riding along with locals who are taking action in the face of rising crime and violence associated with gunrunning and the cannabis industry. Kane Montour is the head of Kanesatake Perimeter Security, a group of 15 Mohawk men and women who make up the closest thing the territory has to a local police force, and he shares his team’s experiences dealing with the fallout from some dispensaries attracting a criminal element to Kanesatake as well as outsiders dumping refuse and contaminated soil on their land.
