During the fall of 2016, Mi’kmaq opponents of the Alton Gas project, supported by non-Indigenous allies, set up a truckhouse along the banks of the Shubenacadie River near the Alton Gas brine dumping site. This year, they set up a Treaty Camp along the entrance to the Alton Gas work site, effectively blocking the company from working on the project. This camp continues to this date, and needs on-going support and donations.
