What does Idle No More fight for?
Idle No More fights for aborignal sovereignty, treaty terms being respected, protection of their people and the environment they live in. They also address issues that happen to the First Nations. Such as the issue that First Nations women get murdered and are missing.

people holding a sign out on the missing aboriginal women. How scary it is to you when someone goes missing in your area?
Sadly, First Nations women make up 16% of murdered
women and 11% of missing women in Canada. Violence against First Nation women and girls is a current issue we have today in our society. Fortunately, many activist groups like Idle No More will address these issues to the government. Hopefully, we will see positive change to this important issue overtime. How does Idle No More gain attention? To get attention, the members in Idle No More would stage protests, marches, and flash mobs. They will also block bridges and highways to get attention.
