Until Sept 18, the government is seeking comments on whether to designate Alberta's costly new pipeline proposal – funded by taxpayers, posing significant risks for the wildlife, ecosystems and communities along its route - as a 'project of national interest'.

"Environmental laws exist for a reason – to protect our health and safety, the clean air and water we rely on, and the nature that makes Canada unique. Dismantling decades worth of legal protections to speed up development and putting these important values at risk is not a path to true prosperity."

UN: “We’ve seen mass evacuations. Power stations closed. And trade routes choked. Crops lost. Yields down. And food prices up – and set to rise further.”
”To be soft on climate action is to be soft on inflation, and the cost of living, soft on sovereignty and security, and soft on economic growth and jobs. The fossil fuel crisis is also pushing up the costs of government borrowing, meaning less fiscal space to deliver vital services that populations need and expect.”

"Carney has once again taken a wrecking ball to Canada’s environmental safeguards and climate progress. Many of his moves since coming to power have been done quietly, to avoid the public backlash that these environmental rollbacks rightfully deserve. Such is the case with the amendments tabled this morning in stealth."
"There was no forewarning of this decision. No press release. No press conference."
-
Mark Carney's "latest attack on Canada’s hard-fought environmental rules came in the form of a quiet posting in the Canada Gazette which announced that some of the country’s most polluting projects will no longer be reviewed under the country’s Impact Assessment Act. This includes the country’s largest carbon bombs: oil and gas pipelines (including in national parks), in situ oil sands extraction and fossil gas plants."
"If the Prime Minister proceeds, nature will suffer, species could be driven to extinction and climate disasters will continue to become more severe, deadly and expensive — all while project decision-making becomes less transparent, less evidence-based and more politicized."
-
'Carney is putting endangered orcas at risk in order to bulldoze through projects like pipelines, LNG terminals and major port expansions.'
11 days until Parliament resumes. Time is running out; contact your MP now, before the vote happens, and tell them to oppose this bill:

“Destroying the critical habitats of at-risk species for infrastructure and fossil fuel projects is the approach the U.S. President is taking in the United States. It should not be Canada’s response to the trade war. Let's be better. Let's protect Canada's nature and at-risk species and their critical habitats.”

"… we must stop thinking of competition as the dominant force in ecology and evolution. This assumption has skewed our understanding of life on Earth and been used to justify predatory capitalism, genocide and the exploitation of people, animals and planetary resources.
"Indeed, what nature and its incredibly complex and varied life forms — in our oceans and seas, among plant and animal species, and in the very soil beneath our feet — reveal is that collaboration and symbiosis underpin our world. It is not a form of socialism or a hippie dream to say that we achieve more together. It is what the science tells us."

'Victoria council lines up against West Coast Oil Pipeline'
Mark Carney's proposed West Coast Oil Pipeline is 'a failure of climate leadership. “It consigns Victorians, our friends and family across the continent, and future generations to choking wildfire smoke and floods from atmospheric rivers.”'

“Canada cannot claim to care about endangered species with one hand while weakening the laws that protect them with the other”.
The comment period on a potential 'project of national interest' designation for the proposed Carney/Smith pipeline - which would fast-track the pipeline, exempt it from laws protecting our coast and wildlife, and put the endangered Southern Resident Orcas and other wildlife at risk - is open until September 18:

“The International Court of Justice has made it clear – keeping to 1.5C is not a choice, it is a legal obligation (…). We are not asking for your goodwill. We are not begging you. We are telling you what international law requires of you. End fossil fuel expansion. Your corporate profits cannot be allowed to extinguish our future.”

The biggest oil & gas companies operating in #Canada have enjoyed a massive increase in profits in recent years, "and yet the largest portion of the money went to shareholders, primarily American. Over the same time period, Alberta workers saw their share of the value generated by the oil and gas industry dramatically decline."
Obviously, spending billions of public dollars to build more pipelines to service American shareholders - during a #TradeWar, in the grip of a #ClimateCrisis - would be a really stupid thing for Canadians to do.
-
"The first task must be to stop making the crisis worse. The countries that benefited most from decades of fossil fuel-driven growth have a particular responsibility to cut emissions rapidly. They also have far greater resources to do so. A just transition away from coal, oil and gas towards renewable energy is therefore a matter of global justice."
"The fossil-fuel industry cannot be separated from this conversation. Companies have made enormous profits extracting and selling the fuels that have driven global heating, while communities on the climate frontline are being asked to prepare for increasingly destructive impacts with far fewer resources."
-
The Nepal-Tibet flood "comes after years of warnings from scientists and civil society that a rapidly warming planet would make disasters more frequent, more intense and harder to predict. This is what the cost of delaying global climate action looks like."

"Germany has the third largest economy in the world, after the U.S. and China, and the largest economy in Europe. Its embrace of renewable energy has helped push the E.U. toward cleaner power."
Reminder: No one needs any new tarsands pipelines from Mark Carney or Danielle Smith.

In a first, Germany drew more power from wind and solar than from fossil fuels last year; together, wind and solar generated 44% of Germany’s electricity.
Germany shut down its last remaining nuclear power plants in 2023. It is aiming to wean off of coal power by 2038, though experts say it will likely achieve that goal much sooner.

Mark Carney's signature policy initiative (pre-Liberal leadership) was the Net Zero Banking Alliance. Its purpose was to accelerate climate action among financial institutions. It would be great if he could be bothered to show an interest in this, now that he's PM.

#NativeAmericans Hold #NationalDayOfMourning on #Thanksgiving
"'Thanksgiving' is a white-washed holiday designed to conceal its true origins of violence, #genocide, #LandTheft, and #ForcedAssimilation," - #IndigenousEnvironmentalNetwork.
Jessica Corbett
Nov 28, 2024"In contrast with Thanksgiving celebrations across the United States on Thursday, Native Americans held a National Day of Mourning, promoted accurate history, and championed Indigenous voices and struggles.
"Despite rainy conditions, the United American Indians of New England held its 55th annual National Day of Mourning at Cole's Hill in Plymouth, Massachusetts. Kisha James, who is an enrolled member of the Wampanoag Tribe of Gay Head (Aquinnah) and also Oglala Lakota, shared how her grandfather founded the event in 1970 and pledged to continue to "tear down the Thanksgiving mythology."
"The past influences the present" and "the settler project" continues with racism, misogyny, and anti-LGBTQ+ discrimination, James told the crowd. "The Pilgrims are not ancient history."
"James took aim at fossil fuel pipelines, oil rigs, skyscrapers, corporations, the U.S. military, mass incarceration, and the criminalization of immigrants, and declared that "no one is illegal on stolen on land."
"Jean-Luc Pierite, a member of the Tunica-Biloxi Tribe of Louisiana and president of the board of directors of the North American Indian Center of Boston who helped organize this year's gathering, told USA Today that "while we are mourning some tragic history but also contemporary issues, we are also expressing gratitude for each [other] and building this community space."
"Coming together as a community for a feast and to express gratitude—that's not something that was imported to this continent because of colonization," Pierite said. "Indigenous peoples have had these practices going back beyond, beyond colonial contact."
This year's event in Plymouth included speeches about the suffering of Palestinians—as Israel wages a U.S. government-backed war on the Gaza Strip that has killed at least 44,330 people, injured 104,933, and led to a genocide case at the International Court of Justice—and of people impacted by extractive industries.
"The message from Indigenous peoples internationally has been consistent: that we need to center the development of traditional ecological knowledge, Indigenous knowledge, and move away from fossil fuel extractive economies," said Pierite. "At this time the world needs Indigenous peoples."

Support the “AVL 4” Appalachians against Pipelines!
On March 4, four of our Asheville, NC, friends were arrested along with three other people after being aggressively chased by police through the woods of Poor Mountain in West Virginia. Only one of these seven has been bailed out so far, with others hopefully released soon—but all with hefty bond amounts and legal expenses ahead. That same day on that mountain, two other people locked themselves to an immobilized car and shut down Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP) work for eleven hours.
The repression against MVP resistance has continued to escalate of late. In recent months, local and Indigenous pipeline resisters have been charged with felonies, hit with egregious civil lawsuits, and faced months of jail time for protesting the devastation of this delicate ecosystem. If completed, the MVP will contaminate sensitive water sources for poor communities across West Virginia and Virginia, perpetuating a legacy of resource extraction and disregard for human and nonhuman life in Appalachia.
Our AVL buddies need your support! Let’s shower them with love and solidarity!
