The federal government is planning to announce that they have granted permits for the construction of the Site C Dam.
This decision is incredibly reckless.
It makes a mockery of the Liberal government's commitment to an evidence based environmental review process (**News flash** – economists and environmental experts say Site C is nothing but bad news).
It flies in the face of the promise Trudeau and his government made to collaborate openly and honestly with First Nations.
Lastly, the energy generated by Site C will be used almost exclusively to power local fracking initiatives, setting British Columbia and Canada back decades in the fight to cut greenhouse gas emissions.
This news can’t discourage us, it has to re-energize us. The battle to stop Site C is just getting started. Let our government know that you don’t support this decision by signing on now.
Your message will be sent to:
- Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister
- Catherine McKenna, Minister of Environment and Climate Change
- Marc Garneau, Minister of Transport
- Carolyn Bennett, Minister of Indigenous and Northern Affairs
- Dominic LeBlanc, Minister of Fisheries, Oceans, and the Canadian Coast Guard
