I do not support this bill. Protecting Indigenous rights and land claims should be a very high priority. I do not support the pipeline. I support a transition to a more inclusive, equitable, and environmentally responsible economy in Canada, which includes protecting ecosystems and leaving oil in the ground. We have reached 410 ppm of carbon dioxide, relative to 350 ppm pre-industrialization. Global temperatures have risen 1 degree Celsius. Canadian permafrost is melting, releasing carbon dioxide and methane and impacting the northern people and ecosystems. As of October, the Arctic sea ice was at a record low for that month. We are in a climate emergency. Our only hope is to transition to a clean economy. Aside from the reality of climate change, the Canadian government needs to respect the Indigenous people of this land.
