Divest McGill

BREAKING: Divest McGill members have disrupted the Board of Governors’ meeting, demanding fossil fuel divestment and democratization, and decolonization of the university institution.

Today there are 100+ #StopDirtyBanks protests across the country to hold the biggest US banks—@Chase @Citi @BankofAmerica @WellsFargo—accountable for being the biggest funders of climate chaos. @ThirdActOrg @SierraClub @HipHopCaucus @greenpeaceusa are joining hundreds in DC! ✊

HAPPENING NOW: Hundreds of climate activists shut down NYC traffic as they march on @jpmorgan to demand an end to new fossil fuel investments. The choice is clear: Their profits or our lives. #StopDirtyBanks #32123

Thank you @divestmcgill for your support! bit.ly/3KKIIFj We look forward to seeing you & members of the public at our appeal hearing against the CIA regarding our #classaction for #MKULTRA Subproject 68 on March 30th, 2023.

@JustinTrudeau, @melaniejoly & @s_guilbeault, #BreakUpWithLine5. Your relationship to #fossilfuels is TOXIC. #Line5 has been ordered to shut down and has spilled >30 times. What are you waiting for???

#Line5 is a ticking timebomb in the ❤️ of the #GreatLakes; it threatens drinking water for 40 million people and Indigenous livelihoods, and contributes to the #ClimateCrisis. This V-Day, we are commanding @JustinTrudeau, @melaniejoly & @s_guilbeault to #BreakUpWithLine5.

Please share widely

Happy Valentine’s Day from BBF ❤️💕❤️💕

🎉🎉🎉 It's been a long time coming, but @CarletonCollege took a huge step today in committing to reducing its endowment's exposure to fossil fuels! THANK YOU TO EVERYONE who has fought so hard for this change!

No surprise here, but nice that they're talking about it... What we really need is action: 1. Cancel CGL 2. Cancel TMX 3. Cancel all fossil fuel subsidies Canada Needs Oil and Gas Emissions Cap to Hit 2030 Goal: NZAB via @theenergymix theenergymix.com/2023/01/31/can…

3/ Canadian banks were some of the worst culprits, with just 1% of financing from RBC and TD between 2016 and 2022 going to clean energy compared to 99% going to companies involved in the production of fossil fuel energy. #cdnpoli ran.org/press-releases…

Jet fuel emissions are already enormous and accelerating the climate crisis. These new jets will lock us in to massive, deadly carbon emissions for the next 30 years, making any of Canada's climate targets impossible to achieve. Join us to #DropTheF35Deal for #NoFighterJets ⬇️

For #biodiversity & climate, #Canada must cancel plans to buy fossil-fuel powered fighter jets & warships that harm people, land & #oceans. No F-35s. Disarm & demilitarize. #PeaceForBiodiversity #NoNewFighterJets #COP15 @s_guilbeault @melaniejoly @UNBiodiversity @nofighterjets

We will be setting up a permanent Blockade at Brady landfill of Winnipeg Manitoba where 4 indigenous sisters said to be. Our women deserve Justice & their voices will be heard, We will make sure of it! We will also defend ourselves till the very end! #NoMoreStolenSisters

"Climate change is rooted in capitalist & extractive settler colonial systems," says Carley Dove-McFalls, of @DivestMcGill. "The continued extraction of this dirty oil reflects how a colonial history & unregulated capitalism disrupt & threaten #biodiveristy & Indigenous rights."
