Launching "Guardians of Eternity"
You are invited to join Arn Keeling and John Sandlos for the St. John鈥檚 launch of 鈥淕uardians of Eternity,鈥 the collaboratively produced documentary film by France Benoit about the toxic legacies of Yellowknife鈥檚 Giant Mine. The mine is closed now, but the toxic contamination left behind could be with us forever. The Yellowknives Dene First Nation is on the front line because the mine is on their land. The film tells the story of Giant Mine鈥檚 toxic legacy from the Dene perspective.
