"Motivations of the current president are under particular scrutiny because his family...has significant investments in multiple mining operations at a time Canada and the South American country are moving to finalize a Free Trade Agreement."

As mass protests rock Ecuador, Canadian mining companies are caught in the crosshairs: Silvercorp $SVM.TO, DPM Metals $DPM.TO $DPMLF, and Atico Mining $ATCMF $ATY. Protesters are demanding all three companies' environmental licenses be canceled. biv.com/news/resources…



The Canada-Ecuador FTA which was negotiated largely behind closed doors will open the flood gates to more Canadian mining in Ecuador, despite clear, wide-scale opposition and deep concern for the impacts on water and the environment by Canadian companies already operating there.

Last week, thousands hit the streets in Cuenca, Ecuador to protect water and the páramo de Kimsakocha from mining. Protesters are demanding the Ecuadorian government revoke 🇨🇦 $DPM.TO $DPMLF environmental licence or face further action. Full blog: bit.ly/3ItYvJN

While families struggle, Carney cuts public services, tramples Indigenous rights, scapegoats migrants, flanks US militarization, arms Israel, and destroys the climate. Sept 20 we unite across all movements to #DrawTheLine. Find your action in 50+ cities: drawtheline.world


It is clear that Canadian companies operating in Ecuador are rolling the dice hoping that no one is watching. Canada should not be fast-tracking a free trade agreement in Ecuador if it can't ensure Canadian companies play by the rules there.

A tremendously important opportunity for the new leadership at Canadian mining company Equinox Gold to finally listen to the concerns put forward by the Agrarian Representatives of the Ejido of Carrizalillo.

Ejido de Carrizalillo's statement on $EQX Equinox's leadership change: “We ask [the new leadership] to listen to us so that we can establish direct contact and move beyond this conflict, which in a week will have gone on for four months.” miningwatch.ca/news/2025/7/...

"There has never been any ambiguity in the Xinka position. They’ve resisted the [Canadian] silver mine from the beginning, when it was illegally permitted in their territory without consent They’ve spoken. Now it’s time for $PAAS —& the authorities—to listen" #PuebloXinkaDijoNo

We and 132 other civil society organizations and coalitions affirm the Xinka People’s right to free, prior and informed consent regarding the controversial Escobal mine. 🔗 bit.ly/4m90r8F #IndigenousSelfDetermination #IndigenousRights #PuebloXinkaDijoNo

Why does Canada keep prioritizing the rights of investors over the rights of Indigenous people - both in Canada and in Ecuador? @CanadianPM Carney, if 🇨🇦 is truly in a 'hinge moment,' then its time to hit reset on this Trudeau era trade deal now!

Canada's Free Trade Agreement with Ecuador prioritizes protecting corporations - even while 100+ environmental defenders have been criminalized for fighting 🇨🇦 mining companies. We need to hit reset. Trade cannot come at the expense of human rights. hilltimes.com/story/2025/07/…

Ongoing disturbing news about Canadian mining in Ecuador on the heels of a negotiated Free Trade Agreement that completely failed to consult Indigenous people.

Environmental defenders in Ecuador filed an injunction against 🇨🇦 Loma Larga project & announced several actions protesting the arbitrary decision of the govt to grant an environmental licence for exploitation to Dundee Precious Metals $DPM.TO $DPMLF shorturl.at/51cEw

How can Canada promote a free trade agreement with Ecuador that will increase mining investment when peaceful opposition to mining projects in that country are constantly being criminalized and repressed? Here is yet another reason why Canada needs a reset on trade deals!

Hundreds of people took to the streets today in Ecuador to demand justice in the appeal hearing of 3 environmental defenders who earlier this year were unjustly sentenced to 4 years in prison for their peaceful opposition to 🇨🇦 Curipamba-El Domo mining project #VoicesaAtRisk

✅No agreement should move forward without FPIC of affected Indigenous Peoples ✅There must be legislated mechanisms in 🇨🇦 to hold Canadian corporations accountable for HR violations ✅the deal must not include ISDS process of any kind, as it has been rejected by the 🇪🇨 people
