Title: A victory for the Samis
Post by: Freija on April 29, 2011, 03:56:31 pm

Just popping in quickly to congratulate our indigenous peoples, the Samis, for the victory in court.
Finally - after a 20 years´dispute - the court ruled in favour of the Samis who can now let their reindeer graze
in the forests, just like their ancestors have done "since time immemorial".

Just wanted to bring some good news. Popping out again  ;D

Outrageous that it had to come to this and that people stopped them from grazing their reindeer in the first place, but great news and thanks for sharing Freja.
