The North Coast Oil Tanker Moratorium was finally made law in 2019 after decades of effort by residents and Indigenous nations in Northwest BC. Now, the Conservatives are trying to scrap our hard-won protections that banned massive crude oil tankers from operating along our coast with Bill C-229, which will be debated on Friday, January 29 and voted upon the following week. A crude oil spill would devastate our fragile marine ecosystem and threaten the livelihoods of those who live along the coast.
Join us and special guests from across the Northwest virtually on ZOOM for a discussion on the importance of defeating this legislation. Hear stories from those who have been affected by spills in the past and those whose livelihoods are most at risk should another disastrous spill occur.
