# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Stand Up for Treaty Rights: Peaceful Protest Against Bill 54 & the Sovereignty Act
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 15 May, 2025 at 12:00 pm – Thu, 15 May, 2025 at 03:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Join us for a peaceful protest at the Alberta Legislature to stand against Bill 54, the Alberta Sovereignty Act, and the continued erosion of Indigenous rights and treaty obligations. This grassroots action calls for unity, accountability, and respect—centered on justice for First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples. 

Why we’re gathering: 

Bill 54 proposes to limit who can challenge provincial referendums in court, potentially silencing Indigenous communities and advocacy organizations. 

The Alberta Sovereignty Act enables the province to ignore federal laws it disagrees with, undermining federally protected Indigenous and treaty rights.


Together, these legislative moves reflect a broader pattern of exclusion—where Indigenous voices are sidelined, treaty responsibilities are dismissed, and power is centralized without proper consultation. 

We are gathering to: 

Oppose Bill 54 and the Alberta Sovereignty Act 

Demand meaningful and transparent Indigenous consultation 

Defend treaty rights and Indigenous sovereignty 

Stand in solidarity across nations and communities


This is a peaceful, family-friendly, and respectful gathering. All are welcome—bring your signs, your voice, and your commitment to justice. 

Treaties are not symbolic—they are living agreements that must be honoured. Indigenous rights are human rights.
Join us in calling for change.
