Powerlines not Pipelines

Big Oil is using Trump’s threats as an excuse to win everything on their wish list. It’s time to fight back!

The federal government is striking deals to revive toxic tar sands pipelines, gutting key federal climate policies, and undermining environmental protections and Indigenous rights. These moves don’t protect Canadian workers – they just make Big Oil billionaires richer while endangering our communities and the planet.

What Canadians really need are projects that build real resilience like an East-West Grid that provides affordable, reliable, renewable electricity to people from coast to coast to coast.

We demand powerlines not pipelines!

The decisions that Prime Minister Carney makes this year will fundamentally shape the future of the country and the planet. Canada cannot afford to continue down a trajectory of fossil fuelled climate chaos.

Let’s stand together to reject Big Oil’s toxic pipe dream and demand a livable future. Email the Prime Minister now to demand federal leadership and funding for a People’s Power Grid and a commitment to phase out fossil fuels. You can send the letter as-is or customize however you like.

Tell Prime Minister Carney

No Pipelines on a Burning Planet

Carney is using Trump's threats as an excuse to grant Big Oil everything on their wish list.

He’s striking deals to revive toxic tar sands pipelines, gutting key federal climate policies, and undermining environmental protections and Indigenous rights. All of these decisions make Big Oil richer while endangering our communities and the planet.

Let’s stand together to reject this toxic pipe dream and demand a livable future.

Personalize your message:

Dear Prime Minister Carney,

The science is clear. Burning fossil fuels is cooking our planet. You said yourself that the “vast majority of reserves are unburnable” over a decade ago.

Since then, the climate crisis has gotten exponentially worse. Destructive fires, deadly heat waves, and devastating floods are regularly impacting communities across the country and around the world, costing billions of dollars and endangering millions of lives.

Your recent MOU with Alberta paves the way for more dirty extraction and toxic pipelines, expanding dangerous tanker traffic, and more carbon emissions that will continue to warm the climate and endanger us all. Your Major Projects Office, headed by the former CEO of Trans Mountain, prioritizes corporate profit above the health of our communities, the future of our planet, and the rights of Indigenous peoples. On top of all of this, your government is gutting key federal climate legislation, rendering our emission reduction targets unattainable and putting a livable future further out of reach.

This is unacceptable.

That’s why we’re calling on you to:

1. Immediately freeze new oil, coal, and gas extraction in Canada and launch a plan to completely phase out the fossil fuel industry in line with science. That means no new pipelines that would endanger communities and ecosystems, and vastly expand one of the dirtiest sources of fossil fuels on earth: the Alberta tar sands.

2. Transition Canada to a 100% renewable energy economy. That includes funding a publicly owned East West Grid to power communities with affordable, reliable, renewable energy while uplifting Indigenous leadership and creating tens of thousands of good, green jobs.

The decisions you make this year will fundamentally shape the future of the country and the planet. Canada cannot afford to continue down a trajectory of fossil fueled climate chaos. We will not let you put the needs of Big Oil above those of our communities.

With urgency,

Toxic Trivia: Pushing Back Against Big Oil’s Propaganda One Game at a Time

Big Oil billionaires and their political allies are trying to persuade us that fossil fuels are a source of stability and growth. But we know that new fossil fuel expansion only offers short term profits for the powerful few – while unleashing death, destruction, and skyrocketing energy bills for the many.

Enough is enough. We deserve the truth.

We know that Canada needs to accelerate the transition to affordable, reliable renewable energy instead of building new pipelines that lock us into fossil fuel dependence.

Across the country, communities have been gathering to push back against oil and gas propaganda and build support for the energy transition.

Toxic Trivia helps us bust Big Oil’s lies and make pipelines toxic again.
