Pay attention BC voters: “The mega-deduction certainly reduces the risk in the just-announced deal for expanding the LNG project in Kitimat, B.C. “This project can move ahead only because Canadians are footing part of the bill,”

Fun facts: 🔥Since 2007, BC’s climate pollution has decreased by 2.3 million tonnes. 🔥Approved LNG export projects will increase BC’s climate pollution by 21.2 million tonnes by 2035. 🔥This is ten times more pollution than we’ve managed to cut in nearly 20 years.
Trends in BC's greenhouse gas pollution from 1990 to 2023, with two projected futures. Approved LNG projects will increase BC's emissions by 21.2 million tonnes. If we meet BC's climate targets emissions will decrease by 80%. From 2007 to 2023 BC has only reduced 2 million tonnes of climate pollution.

The oil industry is unwilling to pay for this pipeline because even they know the world is moving away from fossil fuels. This project leaves Canadians bearing all the risks of a bad investment without any of the rewards.

This is just another gift to an oil industry already on track to make $100 billion in wartime profits this year alone. We pay, we take on the risk, and they reap the rewards.

6/ National unity cannot be built on pipelines that divide Canadians or LNG projects that lock us into decades more fossil fuel dependence. Energy security means freedom from the next oil and gas price shock & preparing our communities for the fires, floods and deadly heat

3/ And this isn’t just about whales. Expanding the world’s heaviest, most carbon-intensive oil means producing more fossil fuels for decades, when the science tells us we need to be moving in exactly the opposite direction. You don’t phase something out by building more of it.

1/ So it’s official. Faced with a choice between whales and oil, our Prime Minister chose oil. Faced with a choice between a safe climate and more fossil fuel expansion, he chose oil again. Today, Mark Carney announced yet another mammoth oilsands pipeline. #cdnpoli #bcpoli 🧵

I also think he’s happy to look economically strong now even if the long-term impacts will be devastating. Climate change is expensive. Wealth inequality is expensive. These are the LONG TERM consequences of his bid to attract as much money as he can right now at any cost.
