• The North East Federation of Anarchist-Communists also seems to now have a page up about the standoff.


• Turtle Island Native Network News


• NDN News also has an excellent collection of links to articles and video from the mainstream media regarding the standoff.


• CKRZ-FM (the Six Nations radio station mentioned in the Hamilton Spectator yesterday) has a live audio stream; if anything happens you’ll most likely hear about it there first.

And of course both Settlers In Support of Indigenous Sovereignty and Autonomy and Solidarity are maintaining the most up-to-date resource pages on the standoff.
