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

I’m a British Columbian born person who is excercising my right to disagree!

Our air and land are being polluted to no purpose. Use the funds to promote renewable energy.

No access to unseeded territory. No more Tarsands killing Canada’s environment and First nations hunting grounds. Move on to clean energy. In Calgary it is windy and sunny at the same time. Keep the Bitumen in the ground. BC opposes , Tsleil-Waututh opposes, Musquem,and Squamish oppose. So it is a No Go.

Wake Up and show some love for our planet!

Hi Goof, I’m against your pipeline. Come talk to me one on one about it.

The government has a legal duty to consult First Nations, meaningfully.


The Canadian government pledged to fully support the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP). It calls for Indigenous groups to have the right to free, prior and informed consent before resource development projects proceed across their lands.


Anyone who wants to build a pipeline through Indigenous territory must have the consent of the title holders.

The majority does not rule and if one backyard says no this pipeline is not going through.

New court cases from First Nations have already been filed. This pipeline will not be built.

We keep taking and taking from the earth. We aren’t doing anything to help repair the damage we are doing. I stand with the protectors in resisting this pipeline.

I oppose the pipeline.

I oppose the pipeline. We need to switch to renewables and stop dumping carbon dioxide into our atmosphere. The pipeline is just a method to get more money for oil companies.

No pipeline

Mr. Kenney, I am a working person, a parent, a settler on unceded Indigenous peoples’ lands that before first contact had been stewarded sustainably since time immemorial. I forfeit thousands of work hours as a self- employed landscaper and unpaid citizen-ctivist to oppose further fossil fuel expansion that the world’s climate scientists have warned is a fatal risk to a safe liveable climate for our children and all future generations. Canada is now heating at twice the rate of the rest of the world. Wildfires, flooding, crop failure, deglaciation from climate change is now become the new normal that you are refusing to see and take any responsibility for. I am a resident of the coast that is at increased risk of an inevitable catastrophic bitumen spill on the Salish Sea. The federal court of appeal acknowledged that even just the increased noise traffic from a 700% increase of tanker activity in the sonar environment of the endangered southern resident orcas will spell their extinction. The courts also ruled that the federal government approval for the Transmountain project failed to uphold constitutionally enshrined Indigenous rights to meaningful consultation. Nothing has changed since that time. Over half of BC first Nations still say no. Your governments’ willingness to trample internationally recognized standards of Indigenous rights and free, prior and informed consent protocols to ram through a massive expansion of tar sands infrastructure without consent at public expense in a climate emergency, is dumb, dangerous and immoral and I am proud to answer the question of your inquiry as to who opposes Transmountain: It is I and the dozens of Indigenous communities, municipalities, tens of thousands of sensible citizens and advocates for a safe planet, clean water, healthy ecosystems and mass public investment in a post- carbon economy and a just transition for workers and communities that are still opposed and will continue to resist until this project is finally defeated.

I am from Nova Scotia and am a grandmother who works with Indigenous Women. I lived in BC 48 years ago and know how critical the salmon are to so many species. Threatening the water ways and the increased oil tanker ships is not the wsy forward.

Mr. Kenney, there are many Canadians like me who respect Alberta and also our natural resources. I agree with Canada’s federal courts who have found there are reasons to delay or stop oil projects in Alberta. New jobs and appropriate training for them in the renewable resources industr could be a great fit for Albertans losing their jobs in the oil fields. Respect for indigenous opposition to these projects is also key to being a true Canadian.

Sir, I know you have Albertans’ welfare at heart, but tar sands is not the way to

achieve it. We are going through an environmental emergency and building a pipeline where we should divest from fossil fuels is not not the way forward.

I’m a caucasian Canadian boy who thinks free speech and freedom to demonstrate is imperative to a FREE CANADIAN SOCIETY. – HOW DARE YOU TRY AND INTIMIDATE PEOPLE THAT ARE AGAINST YOUR INSANE FOSSIL BURNING, PETROLEUM INDUSTY GREEDY POLICIES. – YOU AND YOURS ARE LITERALLY KILLING THE PLANET AND HUMANITY, WHICH INCLUDES OUR CHILDREN (AND YOURS). – SHAME ON YOU ALL!!!!!!!!!

From Climate Change to our Killer Whales, you have failed to satisfy a single one of our Very Canadian concerns. You have failed to calculate the costs of the damages arising from the emissions of this project, which you haven’t even included in your tallies. Moving the goalposts and utilizing an industry captured regulator, with a farcical process, did not satisfy any of your obligations to consult us, nor has it satisfied a single one of our scientists. You want to know who is funding the opposition to this catastrophic project? Canadians. Go ahead and waste more money on a witch hunt. Nobody is buying that, either.

Water is life, refine your own oil, where is the supposed market for low grade bitumen? Climates are changing weather you like it or not, a spill is disaster for everything that lives downstream and their is no consent. Not in my backyard, try so,ar or geothermal!,,,

Stop,pull your head out of the sand, wipe off the tar, and recognize the change in the climate that has already occured. We do not need the heavy oil, we do not need to waste our natural gas processing it and Alberta could do much better with geothermal and other renewable industries. We definitely do not need to waste capital building a pipeline that will never pay for itself.

I oppose the expansion of the trans mountain pipeline.

I am a retired professor, a little old lady to you, but I’ll fight you and the pipeline – with my own money thank you very much. Send CSIS to watch – we’re not afraid of you.

Please think of your children’s future, no amount of wealth will protect them from poor choices involving the climate. Be independently wise and invest in renewable energy. Let your legacy be a positive contribution to our planet. This pipeline is trouble on so many levels, from faulty storage to tanker spills. Please do the right thing.

Pay no attention to the groups wanting to keep oil in the ground.

Please keep up your great work and dedication to getting the Alberta resources to tide water.

We need pipelines!

If we need zero emissions we need to stop petroleum-related funding now!

Ask your children and grandchildren what they think. Ask all the seniors that you know. Ask all the people who put the health of the planet ahead of the health of your bank account. They would all tell you what you do not want to hear and that’s because you are a very bad person who only cares about himself.

Time to wake up Jason, the world is on fire and intelligent people are changing their ways. Plus, ff we waste more money on another pipeline, who is going to buy the diluted bitumen in ten years?? industries, even the oil companies [changing their names from petroleum to energy], are changing. You will be left behind in the coal bin, with the horse cart, if you don’t start looking to the future your grandchildren will have.

I do not get paid or solicited by special interest groups ….

This “boondoggle” will never see the light of day…..I think you realize that…..so please stop with all the drama …lol…

There is no market for Dilbit ……

Building your own refineries is the only way to help Canada …..wakey wakey Alberta…..

Dear Mr Kenney

I am very sad at the current discourse, especially your own, in Canada, around this issue. I have dear friends in Alberta; I am sorry that the Albertan government has not properly planned for this time when it had decades to do so. I am 56 years old, so I remember the have-not days of Alberta, before the oil boom. Anyone with an understanding of world oil economics, let alone environmental issues like Climate Change and Indigenous rights, knew that the day would come when the oil sands industry would become un-economical; all it takes is the Saudis changing their price, really. That day is here. Increasing trans-mountain will not solve your problems and you would have to be completely uninformed to not know it. I doubt that is the case. So that brings us to politics as your primary reason, so thats very sad. Then there is the problem of CC and the environment and Indigenous rights. The cost in all these ways is simply too high and a very many of us simply are not willing to let this mistake carry on further without voicing and funding complaint. Its still a democracy and thats what people in one do.
