The Oka crisis is one of the most significant episodes in modern Canadian history. For months, all eyes in the country were pulled to a small Quebec town where a group of Indigenous activists lead an armed blockade against a golf course expansion that threatened ancestral lands.

In this talk from summer 2022, comrade Marcus discusses the lessons of the Oka crisis.
