Participants in today’s rally are voicing their opposition to any use of taxpayer money to fund Kinder Morgan’s controversial project, which has failed to obtain consent from impacted First Nations, undermines Canada’s obligations under the Paris Agreement, and poses significant threats to marine life and clean drinking water. Quebecers have been demonstrating their opposition to Kinder Morgan’s pipeline for months and are standing up once again to a new tar sands pipeline — just as they did to help defeat TransCanada’s Energy East pipeline last year.In original language:Rassemblement d'urgence #EnsembleContreKinderMorgan à MontréalPlus de 1000 personnes se sont rassemblées malgré la pluie au Parterre du Quartier des spectacles dans le centre-ville de Montréal cet après-midi pour réitérer leur opposition au projet de pipeline de sables bitumineux de Kinder Morgan. Parmi les portes-paroles se trouvaient les Chefs et des représentants des Premières Nations ainsi que plusieurs personnalités de marque de la scène québécoise. Les Québécois se mobilisent depuis plusieurs mois contre ce projet et l’organisation de ce rassemblement s’insère dans l’escalade continue de la mobilisation au Canada en amont de la date butoir du 31 mai. Les organisations présentes ont également profité de l’événement pour réaffirmer la solidarité de l’est avec l’ouest contre les projets de pipelines de sables bitumineux, souligner le refus d’utiliser l’argent public pour un projet climaticide, et répéter haut et fort le droit des Premières Nations à dire ‘non’ et des provinces de rejeter un projet pétrolier qui menace l’environnement et les communautés.Locations:Canada-Montreal-North AmericaDate:27 May, 2018Credit:© GreenpeaceMaximum size:4493px X 2995pxKeywords:Actions and protests-Activists-Banners-Climate (campaign title)-Day-Demonstrations-Indigenous People-Kinder Morgan-KWCI (GPI)-Local population-Men-Microphones-Outdoors-Pipelines-Positive mood-Signs-Small group of people-Speeches-WomenShoot:Kinder Morgan Emergency Rally in MontrealMore than 1,000 people, including First Nations leaders, local artists and thought leaders, gathered at the Quartier des spectacles in downtown Montreal to reiterate their opposition to Kinder Morgan’s new Trans Mountain pipeline and tanker project.
