130+ faith leaders have signed a letter demanding that Canadian financial institutions decline to finance polluting LNG projects in so-called BC, including CGL2, LNG Canada 2, PRGT & Ksi Lisims.
5 people of faith were arrested at a Pray-in at RBC’s main branch in downtown Toronto.
They were protesting the bank’s continued financing of the climate crisis and demanding that they refrain from providing funds to new LNG projects, including the Prince Rupert Gas Transmission pipeline (PRGT) and CGL phase 2.
In Montreal, activists dropped a banner to protest the Prince Rupert Gas Transmission pipeline in so called British Columbia.
Thank you to everyone who came out to sit-ins and rallies at ministry offices in Vancouver and Victoria, and to our friends in Toronto and Montreal who organized solidarity banner drops.
Why is Canada allowing this?? Today we did a sit-in to let Minister Dix know that fast tracking a pipeline won’t protect us from Trump (but it will make his friends rich and ruin our climate commitments…) what can YOU do?
No matter the weather, we will always show up for Indigenous rights! 🌧🌧🌧
Ottawa and Gatineau showed up in the pouring rain with a clear message for potential financiers of Coastal GasLink Phase 2 and the Prince Rupert Gas Transmission pipeline: NO MORE MONEY FOR METHANE PIPELINES.
BREAKING: Students Across so called Canada Take Action Against Big Banks! 🚨

We’re excited to invite YOU to bring this powerful and inspirational documentary to your community however big or small! This film dives deep into over a decade long Wet’suwet’en resistance against the Coastal GasLink pipeline(CGL). Yintah is a must-see that sparks vital conversations and action!
As #PRGT construction ramps up so that pipeline owners can prove a “substantial start” before their outdated environmental certificate expires in November, opposition amongst northern B.C. Indigenous groups is intensifying, with youth and chiefs from the Gitxsan, Ts’msyen, Gitanyow, and Nisga’a nations vowing legal and direct action against the B.C. government and other pipeline backers.
Photos were taken at the action led by Gitxsan @laxyipyouth and supporters yesterday as they denounced the PRGT pipeline project during the NDP’s swearing-in ceremony at Government House.
Yesterday, gitanyow chiefs and allies in new aiyansh, hagwilget and victoria slowed down traffic for two hours to hand out information about the prince rupert gas transmission (PRGT) project, a fracked gas pipeline that would cross more than 50km of gitanyow territory — without their consent.
