We sent a letter demanding decarbonization to leaders in Canada and Germany. The letter was signed by 629 individuals and 76 organizations on both sides of the Atlantic. It's time to end #LNG subsidies & approvals and invest in a just transition. https://t.co/U1GJJ64gdw #NoLNG

Rally today in St. John's Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, against @Equinor’s #BayduNord oil project! @GreenpeaceNorge @WWFNorge #Stavanger #Norway #Equinor #StopBayduNord

[Social Justice Co-op NL @SJCNL709]

Thanks to all who joined lunch rally outside the #Equinor AGM to say STOP BAY DU NORD. There're no jobs on a dead planet & we can't eat oil (but we can eat the rich so watch out oil execs) #StopBDN
Thanks to @kdsocanth 4 organizing & to Yvonne of @CanadiansOrg 4 🔥 remarks.

People are challenging #Equinor, the company behind the Bay du Nord offshore drilling project, on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean today.

[Blake Desjarlais @DesjarlaisBlake]

Big oil loves to ask Canadians to write them blank cheques while they rake in record profits.

Their shareholders make off with billions while they leave struggling rural Alberta communities and workers with $253 million in unpaid taxes.

Today I held their lobbyist accountable.

[Stop Fracking Around Ottawa @SFA_Ottawa]

Watch Erin, a 19 year student, throw paint at @JustinTrudeau 's office. Why do students feel like this is what needs to be done to get the attention of lawmakers and the heads of government? Our demand: No new licenses for off-shore drilling. #stoptheproject

[Sierra Club Canada Fdn @SierraClubCan]

And now governments are arguing about how #BayduNord is going to COST them money. @Equinor should pay since they think this project is economically viable:

"An injury to one is an injury to all" - now more than ever.

This #MayDay2022, I'll be in the streets with the @TradeJusticeNet fighting for a #PeoplesVaccine, in solidarity with #canlab and workers everywhere.

@350Canada Events across the Atlantic region demanded immediate action to build a bold Just Transition to a safe and fair green economy https://t.co/ENnXY6pdOr #NSpoli #NLpoli #JustTransition #JustTransitionAct

[Council of Canadians @CanadiansOrg]

We co-organized a Day of Action for a Just Transition on March 12 with our friends at @350Canada. 50 events took place from coast to coast with bold & inspiring visions of what a transition could look like. 🧵 https://t.co/w3bgeejPYv #JustTransition #JustTransitionAct

The decision on Bay du Nord has been postponed for 40 more days. Reaction + context here for @NatObserver. https://t.co/ISrw5ZlJaN

While @JustinTrudeau and his ministers have responded to #Omicron and #VaccineApartheid by over-hyping Canada's lackluster vaccine donation record, at least one Liberal MP has broken ranks and recognized the need for a #TRIPSwaiver. Hopefully the first of many. #cdnpoli

[Council of Canadians @CanadiansOrg]

An important op-ed by @Bianca_Kabibi on how travel bans and opposition to the #TRIPSWaiver are just the latest chapter in the long and sordid history of Canada's relations with African nations. https://t.co/mRlSrgZ6GX

Today, we're releasing our NEW REPORT on the power of Big Foreign Oil in Canada

In the midst of a growing climate crisis, wealthy foreign-owned oil corporations have been using their power to block climate action in Canada.

This is Kjipuktuk/Halifax this morning. Coincidence that a PC government just won the NS election last night, I'm sure.
