Since the Paris Agreement was signed, @RBC has invested billions into dirty oil, coal and gas. They want the public to think they’re climate leaders — but the money tells a different story. #FossilFoolsDay teapawt.net/leadnowca/status/17765…
With days to go until @RBC’s AGM, hundreds of people are taking action at RBC branches across Canada. We have one clear message for CEO Dave McKay: Divest from climate chaos and stop funding colonial violence. #FossilFoolsDay Take action: leadnow.ca/FFDaction

We need to safeguard effective and fair climate policy, like carbon pricing, against bad faith attacks. #cdnpoli dsfdn.org/DontBeFooled

Dear @KagutaMuseveni - LGBT Ugandans face a growing threat of rape, torture & murder. Your silence is being heard around the world & risks trashing Uganda's reputation. Condemn the violence! Make it clear these vigilantes do not have a free pass to cause terror on your streets.

As part of their coalition negotiations, the NDP must demand climate action. Send a message calling on them to prioritize a bold Emissions Cap: act.leadnow.ca/NDP-climate-n…

It shouldn’t be this easy for banks to keep funding fossil fuel projects. Time to #EndFossilFinance and place human rights at the centre of finance. @Eko_Movement #JacksonHole2023 @Eko_Movement

An explosive report shows the decision to open the Greenbelt was rigged to benefit a few developers - who now stand to gain $8 billion. Call on the Ford government to reverse the Greenbelt decision NOW: act.leadnow.ca/ministers-gre… #ONpoli

On Friday @JustinTrudeau will attend the #G7 summit in Japan. He's posing as a climate leader, but Canada's still handing billions of our tax dollars to Big Oil 💸🔥 The world is watching. Time for action. Tell Trudeau to end fossil fuel subsidies now 👇 act.350.org/sign/end-fossil-…

Hey @CanadianPM @JustinTrudeau, @s_guilbeault, @JonathanWNV & @cafreeland, Canada needs a strong, ambitious and robust emissions cap to limit and reduce harmful #pollution from the #oilandgas industry. I want real solutions, not more pollution! #StopBigOil #cdnpoli ♻️🌎

Repeat after me: individual actions will not solve the climate crisis 🙅‍♀️ Narratives such as "technology will save us" and "it's up to individuals to change their habits" are just as insidious as outright climate denial. We must keep our attention on where power lies... (1/2)
