Jason Kenney's government has launched an inquiry into who funds groups that criticize Alberta’s oil industry.

I oppose Transmountain Pipeline because of the dangers it poses to the fragile water system. I don’t understand why some of the upgraders that were to be built in the 1990’s in the Industrial Heartland aren’t being built? Wouldn’t that reduce some of the concerns re: bitumen?

Hi. I was born in Canada. I’ve never lived elsewhere. I give about $100/month to stop TMX etc! To stop YOU and Harper’s cronies, ALL of John A MacDonald’s lackeys! Lol. I’m probably foreign backed if you listen to you. You DO listen to you more than any other reasonable thing.

I’m interested in who funds you, Mr. Jason Kenney! Who are the investors in the tar sands that you so lovingly protect and promote? Who funds the lobby groups that promote fossil fuels? Who funds your so-called War Room? On that one, I’m quite clear, it’s the taxpayers. Stop treating us like idiots. We know who is spending money to propagandize again fossil fuel challengers. You have a lot of good buddies with money in the tar sands, fracking, oil industry infrastructure and a whole lot of it comes from outside of Canada. Join the 21st Century and transition to green energy. Yes, even you can do it!

JeM’oppose Its Me. No need for an inquiry. Alberta is a wonderful provnce, but Big oil is destroying our planet… Pass time to invest in clean energy

I think we need more windmills. Burn up that fossil fuel to make them! I would also like electric cars on the road. I don’t care how much energy it takes to build one! Make them out of wood! Then we only need trees to build cars and chainsaws to cut them down!. Fossil fuels are the devil! This site is ridiculous! The whole world is going to burn because the CO2 levels are rising and warming the planet! Who wants that? It only makes my lawn grow better and feeds the trees that I want used to make electric cars! Now that we have solved the rain forest issue, we need a good focus on this emergency! People are idiots! You’ll see a lot of them commenting on my post! The stupidest people will have a lot to say about everything I write. It’s amazing how people can jump on board something as ridiculous as this!

Hi Mr. Kenney, I’m concerned about the future of our environment. Pipelines are awful. There is no sure way to ensure that spills and leaks don’t happen. And the truth is no one wants our crappy bitumen. It’s well known that it is the worst quality oil out there, and the fact that we use as much water in the process is insane. Using our most precious resource to turn sand into poor-quality oil is just stupid. Do the right thing and figure out new ways for your prosperous province to acquire it’s wealth, and not at the expense of the beautiful nature that spans across Alberta and BC. Thanks!

No TMX Jason! NO! NO! NO!

Leave public funds alone. You need to address climate change.

Go back to the Trailer Park Randy! At least you were a funny ass hat there! Maybe if you had kids like most normal people you’d actually give a crap about the shit heap of a world you’re planning to leave them!

I have been opposed to this project for many years. We need to “Keep it in the Ground” and the only way you wouldn’t know that if by voluntarily ignoring the evidence. My private donations have been my vote in this matter. Others like me have invested time and savings into this cause, BECAUSE IT IS CRITICALLY IMPORTANT THAT WE SHIFT AWAY FROM FOSSIL FUELS. Building infrastructure to facilitate the distribution of something we MUST avoid relying on, is counter productive. The same effort applied to renewable resources/ green technology development is what we need and must do. We have the means, if we work towards a common goal, to minimize the impacts of our careless actions over the last century. Otherwise, we’re just apes running a lab to the ground… we will crash like so many civilizations before us.

As a Vancouver Islander I am very concerned with what the TMX pipeline will do to our environment. There are many lives at risk on Burnaby Mountian if you push this thing through. Our Orcas are dying off, our salmon streams are being destroyed. The risk of a tanker colliding with either a bridge or another ship is very real. Dilbit can not be cleaned up effectively. I will do anything in my power to stop this destruction of our coastlands. You are going to destroy much wildlife habitat in the Boreal Forest. I am strongly opposed to your plan for Alberta. It is not in the best interest of anyone that wants to continue living.

Leave it in the ground. Climate change is real, and mainly caused by humans. What is it going to take to do something about this? More wildfires?

I am a Canadian senior and I disagree with your view of the climate. It’s appalling that you are dismantling Rachel’s well-thought-out plans to mitigate the climate crisis while sustaining Albertan families’ quality of life through the necessary transition to alternate energy sources.

I want my young grandsons to have a hope of a decent future.

That’s why I support a number of Canadian grassroots organizations, some environment-focused and some First Nations territorial defensive.

Is that clear enough for you?

We are running out of time to limit Climate Change and leave a safe world for our children and grandchildren. Workers need to be retrained and the oil needs to stay in the ground!

I’m not being influenced

Jason, sweetheart: The fuss you’re kicking up makes a person think that you must have lost the election, instead of won it, and that the daily newspapers and television stations, and big money weren’t all on your side. For some reason you feel you have to invent a big, bad, scary enemy that is keeping you from serving up the contamination of land and water, the damaging of health, and the climate disaster which is so profitable for a few big investors and companies. There is no big bad foreign-finance threat to you, honey, unless you’re referring to the big money interests who don’t care if the forests burn, the glaciers melt, and the oceans die. There are only people like me, who want to stop the disaster that’s in progress now. Now, in a way it’s flattering that you seem to think I’m such a formidable threat to you and the powerful interests your represent, but honestly this just smells of political theatre of the extremely base variety you have become known for. So, inquire away! I’m extremely willing to show up for a public hearing at any time and answer questions about who finances me. The answer is “me”. Not the answer you’re looking for? Too bad. But it’s the only real answer. And thanks for helping remind me to donate to the fight against Trans Mountain Expansion!

Premier Kenney,


As a responsible Canadian (BC) citizen, I feel duty-bound to keep informed & do my part re. Govt. decisions that affect our environment/ future/ health etc.

As such I must ask that you refrain from wasting tax dollars on a bogus investigation into those opposed to the TMX pipeline/ tar sands expansion, as if such opposition is somehow unlawful or wrong!?


What iS WRONG = carrying out a campaign to vilify law-abiding citizens exercising their rights to expose & oppose questionable Govt. decisions – in particular, ones that demonstrate egregious indifference to the very people whose best interests you are honor-bound to protect:

I.E.

Your disgraceful support of corporate polluting [fossil-fuel] interests over the wellbeing of ordinary citizens is what needs to be questioned, along with your refusal to conduct in good faith your due diligence vis-a-vis that industry’s known harms..


(Everyone – even the industry shills to which you pander -knows the AB oilsands are a foreign-funded testament to eco-damage on a colossal scale: why make it worse while disdaining good BCers trying to protect their basic livelihoods? Who are you to decide our province isn’t worth saving, just because yours has been sacrificed for the love of lucre/ trucks – neither of which helps reduce emissions/ meet global commitments?) Expanding those activities will obviously exacerbate the climate-related ruin we all face today.


Your decisions prove you cannot be trusted as a responsible leader going forward.


I unwaveringly support Coast Protectors & aLL those opposed to TMX/fossil-fuels expansion, knowing there are better science-based solutions we can work on, together, to bring about a sustainable thriving future..


(Pandering to the polluters & vilifying engaged, responsible citizens only delays the urgent action needed to protect our biodiversity & ecological balance so key to a sustainable future!?)


Please do the right thing & quit wasting taxpayers’ money/time on ridiculous, shameful schemes that jeopardize Canada’s security & undermine your credibility as a responsible leader!


Thank you for your time.

I’m not being paid, I’m “fueled” by love of the environment and care for my child’s and his generation’s future.

No more fossil fuel development!!

Not funded by anyone, I just plain disagree with your dumbfuck pipedream.

Yo Kenney, you shmuck. I’m Australian and I will fight tooth and nail to see you fail, GLOBAL momentum is building against idiot dinosaur lack of thinking, foresight, basic common sense, morals and leadership like yours. The pipeline WILL NEVER BE BUILT.

I donate to organizations that are trying to change Canada’s poor response to our climate emergency. I donate to groups who are trying to speak up for the people of Burnaby threated by a dangerous tank farm and the indigenous people who are directly effected by expansion of Transmountain. I donate to groups trying to protect our marine ecosystems. I help create banners, I help with rallys I stand of to the RCMP protecting corporate interests. I receive nothing for my efforts except the satifaction of knowing at least I am trying to create a better, cleaner more hopeful world for future generations. Your motivations are more suspect.

Mr. Premier Kenny I am a Tsimshian grassroots Indigenous woman and I love our Indigenous coastal waters and all that lives in and depends on it being healthy. Tsimshian grassroots united with our neighbouring grassroots elders, children and members to stop Enbridge and we will do it again. You are contributing to the hell of fires, floods and drought with your quest for burning more fossil fuels instead of transitioning, producing remediation and renewable jobs and a sustainable economy. Only a weak leader would string his constituents along prolonging the inevitable. The world is cleaning up their act and so should you. No one wants Canada’s dirty crude or fracked gas. Our future generations deserve better. Please adjust yourself accordingly. Sincerly, Tsimshian in solidarity with all grassroots indigenous along the coast and beyond.

Jason, we are in the middle of a climate emergency and it will only get worse. We need to change paths from the status quo to something more sustainable.

I have lived in BC all my 66 yrs. I am totally against this disgusting pipeline. We NEED clean projects not this dirty oil. There is no guarantee that Asia will pay anymore for this than the USA. I have never donated to any of these protester groups but because of YOU…I now will!! NO PIPELINE EVER!!!!!
