As a partner of the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) Consortium and a member of Qalipu Mi’kmaq First Nations, I am one of very few Indigenous faculty members in Canadian astronomy. In my view, Canada’s astronomy community has an ethical duty to listen to the Native Hawaiian protectors of the sacred Mauna Kea site, where the consortium now has a permit for construction. Our response will affect the future of astronomy and reconciliation with Indigenous peoples.
