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

We need to put our dependence on fossil fuels behind us and seek a cleaner energy strategy for Canada. Now. My co-housing project and many other homes in my community are going solar, the proliferation of electric cars in British Columbia. We are ordinary Canadians that give money freely to organizations that support our beliefs in a different future. These organizations lobby for us. I am part of something, of many groups, including First Nations, that will continue to fight for what we need to preserve, our land, our oceans, our planet.

I strongly oppose to the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project. We are in a time of climate emergency, it’s time you act like it. So who is fighting against this atomic bomb that will destroy the ocean and land? Me. But not I’m not alone… I stand amongst thousands, millions of us, ready to fight against this… for our future, your future.

We are donating to take action to stop the trans Mountain Pipeline to fight climate change. It’s time get out of the oil and into renewable energy. The pipeline is a waist of tax payer money. The government need to work for the people not big greedy corporation.

Jason Kenney. The time is now to make big changes. We need to for the sake of our future and future generations. I love the natural beauty in this world. I am personally making many chsnges to live more sustainably. I think there are better options and we have a moral responsibility to protect the environment that we depend on. There are so many reasons why this pipeline is a terrible idea.

I don’t think we should allow foreign organizations or individuals to fund anything in Canada without their involvement being public knowledge and I believe all organizations and individuals who receive such funding should publish that information so their fellow citizens are aware who is affecting politics or public discourse here. However there must be a level playing field. Accordingly I would like Mr Kenney to disclose who else, apart from the Koch Brothers from the US, contributed to the The Canadian Taxpayers Federation when he was its president. Also I think we should know who else, apart from the Koch Brothers and their affiliates, still fund The Manning Foundation in Calgary. Let’s have a clean sweep Mr Kenney.

Who funds critical climate crisis research & factual stats? Canadian taxpayer does Mr.Kenney. There’s an old saying: failed human beings cheat & lie & don’t care who they lay with. You & buddy Premier Ford’s electioneering fits that descriptive & worse…very Trump-like and we all know his intention is f___ everything while he can. We ask that you (& Ford) rise above that philosophy if not for Canadians then simply for your kids.

We ask that you take the political hard road…take all that effort/energy that goes into consistently deceiving & cheating your followers into believing there is no need for change because there is no crisis and start doing the moral, the harder thing. Help your followers accept our new reality of very real climate crisis. Lead them towards energy alternatives and retraining in green energy jobs, towards self sufficiency within evolving energy initiatives. Suggest to your supporters that things do change especially where humans are concerned and you & your followers must ‘change away from carbon based energy’ or lose the very way of life they think they are protecting.

We ask Mr. Kenney for you to be a strong leader & do the hard thing…the right thing.

Welcome to the new millennia… Oil is dead, accept that and leave that filthy shit in the ground where it belongs. I worked in the oil patch in the ‘80s, I know what that dilutant is that you mix with your filthy tar… it was a problem then and it’s a problem now. Oilberta tar is sulfurous garbage and you know it.

Dear Jason Kenney,


Yes, I oppose TMX. I am a 75-year-old woman on a not very large income who cares about the life on this planet: the trees, the water, the animals, and of course our grandchildren. I am not a foreign magnate. I am not a well-funded non-profit. And yes, I send money to those I think are best able to fight this climate crisis. I will continue to do that. Count on it. I care, too, about Albertans and the need for transition jobs as we phase out our dependence on fossil fuels. Count on that, too.

Mr. Kenney,

You said you wanted to know who funds the opposition to the TransMountain pipeline. I’ll come clean because it’s not a secret: I’m one of the thousands of citizens who made a donation to that effect, because this initiative goes against everything that the Canadian government vowed to do in the Paris Accord. Is the funding for the campaigns that support the pipeline as transparent and in line with these promises?

I’m one of many many Canadians who support the Coast Protectors in their determination to stop the pipeline that will not help but only hurt BC. Maybe you should turn your inquiry toward those foreign groups that are funnelling money into the pro-pipeline groups.

Hey there sunshine, the risk of your DILBIT pipe breaking in BC is too high, building a pipeline with Russian steel pipe is asking for trouble, we do not trust the feds to clean up anything other than our wallets. A pipefitter I know told me about schedule 40 steel pipe splitting when trying to thread the end.

Dear Mr. Kenney,

I do not want the Trans Mountain Pipeline. Please protect wildlife and the environment and do not build the pipeline.

Sincerely,

Barbara Inkster

Re: The Trans Mountain Pipeline Debacle

Dear Premier,

Maybe it is time that someone establish a Board of Inquiry into the finances of your party as well as the amount that is spent each year, by the Oil Patch to, to lobby and influence your government. I firmly believe that Alberta can remain a Centre of Excellence for Energy, however the energy to which I refer is Green Energy. Instead of wasting taxpayers’ hard-earned money on a futile investigation, use this money to begin your efforts to transition Alberta’s economy towards Green Technology.

Every rancher knows when he/she is flogging a dead horse and I believe that you know it too. Its time to stop the stonewalling, as a lackey to Corporate Oil and show some real leadership! Its time to” take the bull by the horns” and ensure a future for the up-coming generations of Albertans. Stop this nonsense now! YOU HAVE THE POWER. DO THE RIGHT THING!

No foreign funds. Just hard earned cash given to people, and groups, who care about the future we are leaving for the kids and are fighting the climate crisis.

I opose the transmountain pipeline for many reasons…if you care to hear why


Send me an email..

Thx LS

You are disgusting!!! Resign, fossil fool!!

Dear Jason Kenney, I live on Burnaby Mountain an 8 minute drive from the tank farm. A year ago, aware that I live on the unceded territory of the Tsleil Wau Tuth, Musqueam, and Squamish Nations I decided to stand with them to protect the land, air and water so that all of our children and grandchildren, yours as well, may have a future where they can breathe, drink water, and live in a beautifully natural country. No one funded me. I made a decision based on conscience and I don’t regret that. Please, in the name of all our children and grandchildren respect UNDRIP and respect the title and rights of the Tsleil Wau Tuth, Musqueam, and Squamish Nations.

And who owns most of the oil industry operating in Alberta? You guys sold your souls for oil money decades ago. And unlike Norway you failed to get rich on it.

NO PIPELINE

I am totally opposed to the Trans Mountain Pipeline expansion. It will release toxic bitumen into the environment and threaten Orcas and other marine life off of the British Columbia coast. Furthermore, it will result in the destruction of the boreal forest and threaten the lives of Indigenous peoples living south of the oilsands on the Athabasca River. You are working against the people of Canada and against the urgent fight to end the climate crisis.

My father was a ships’ officer in both the CPR ships off the west coast of BC and BC Ferries. He is VERY fearful of huge tankers navigating between the islands during storm events. Also, we are related to one of the victims of the Queen of the North disaster…in calm seas…caused by HUMAN ERROR. We love our BC coast and understand that a large bitumin spill would spell disaster for the ecosystem of a huge area. Until the technologies are in place to guarantee a total cleanup of such a spill at sea, let’s keep our dirty bitumin off our tidewater. The huge tankers can’t access the port anyway so the bitumin would likely be shuttled to an off shore mega ship, further reducing the barrel price. Let’s first concentrate on addressing land and river spills. Keep in mind the inevitable seismic activity in BC! Furthermore, I doubt Asian countries will ever pay much for our bitumin when cleaner products are available. They do, however, need product to produce asphalt. For that we risk our $$$, our land and sea!

Fighting for air, land and water over corporate interest

You care nothing for your country, your fellow Canadians, the environment God gave to us in trust, or for God Himself; your only cares are for the fossil fuel industry, big business, power, profit. This country needs moral, intelligent leadership, the kind that pray, look ahead and do what is correct with the future in mind. You possess no leadership qualities, just dictatorship qualities, and are an affront to every Person who fought for our rights and Freedoms. You are an affront to decency itself.
