Overview

In New Brunswick, Canada, a multicultural community comprised of members of Mi’kmaq Elsipogtog First Nation, French-speaking Acadians and white English-speaking families banded together behind a common cause: to prevent SWN, a Texas-based natural gas company, from laying claim to their backyard. Together, they set up road blockades, protests and a small, yet potent, resistance. Water Warriors tells the story of a community resolute in the protection of their lands.
