Earlier this year, the UN Special rapporteur for human rights defenders raised concerns about a Canadian company called Belo Sun Mining. She said people protesting the Belo Sun mine, who she refers to as land defenders, report being threatened, harassed and intimidated - some even say they were driven off their land.


But Belo Sun denies these allegations, saying that they care about human rights, and that the project would bring much-needed economic development to an impoverished area - and the government of Brazil has seemingly supported their efforts.


So who is Belo Sun - and how did they become the driving force behind the biggest proposed gold mine in Brazil? Are they guilty of the things that they're accused of? And if so, what can the Canadian government do to stop it?
