Rooted in thousands of pages of Access to Information documents and
dozens of interviews carried out throughout Latin America, Blood of
Extraction examines the increasing presence of Canadian mining
companies in Latin America and the environmental and human rights
abuses that have occurred as a result. By following the money,
Gordon and Webber illustrate the myriad ways Canadian-based
multinational corporations, backed by the Canadian state, have
developed extensive economic interests in Latin America over the
last two decades at the expense of Latin American people and the
environment. Latin American communities affected by Canadian
resource extraction are now organized into hundreds of opposition
movements, from Mexico to Argentina, and the authors illustrate the
strategies used by the Canadian state to silence this resistance
and advance corporate interests.
