In case you missed it, Dalhousie University moves one major step forward towards divestment yesterday by initiating a fund search. We’re ready to keep the pressure on so they go the distance and divest!

@JustinTrudeau @cathmckenna If you're joining the #BCwine "buycott", remember that this alone won't stop #KinderMorgan. We must support Indigenous-led resistance and solutions:

RT! Hey @JustinTrudeau! Remember that talk we had last night? U mentioned you're "world class" BC coast protection plan? Yesterday, took response teams 3 hrs to get to a sunken barge to start containment of diesal spilling into #HoweSound https://t.co/c3mvFCWEFC #StopKM #CNDpoli

[Divest Dal @DivestDal]

We met with @DalPres and @lstordy yesterday about a 3rd-party fund search for #fossilfree investments.

The next step for this proposal is a vote at the Board of Governors on Feb 13. Show up and show your support! #divest

A diesel spill in Howe Sound Wednesday is a dark reminder of the danger of fossil fuels.

@JustinTrudeau's Ocean Protection Plan couldn't protect Howe Sound from this disaster, and it won't protect the Burrard Inlet from Kinder Morgan either. #stopKM

We started speaking up 2 months ago & @JustinTrudeau hasn't committed to a proper review for the largest open pit #tarsands mine ever proposed.

Tell the PM that #TeckFrontier needs a real review that considers climate change & Indigenous rights. #cdnpoli

"Sandy didn't happen by accident. For decades Big Oil ravaged the environment."

New York City mayor just announced a lawsuit against Exxon, Shell, BP & other Big Oil companies for the damages caused by climate change. + NYC's #divestment from fossil fuels. #keepitintheground

Again @AAyton starts killing it with her speech in front of a packed standing crowd.

[Divest Dal @DivestDal]

We're getting set for #DalhousieU's Board of Governors meeting starting in less than an hour, where @AAyton will speak on behalf of our team. We weren't originally on the agenda, but our direct action got us there.

So far there are 71 students here supporting #divestment at the height of exam season! #dedication #studentpower

If you couldn't make it the Board of Governors meeting this morning, there's still a way you can help us put pressure on the Board. Sign + share this petition with your friends, which sends individual letters to each decision maker! https://t.co/5U8QjZtn0c #divestdal #divestnow

[Divest Dal @DivestDal]

1 speaker before @AAyton who will lay down the harsh truth about the 3 yrs since this board rejected divestment. No more excuses #divestnow

[Fossil Free Canada @FossilFreeCAN]

Divestment hasn't been discussed at the Board level in almost three years, but after a week long occupation of the main Quad at #DalhousieU, @DivestDal has been offered a chance to address the Board of Governors.

Follow @DivestDal for updates from inside the meeting. https://t.co/udCOQ53Itr

Board room is full with students and supporters of #divestment.
