@grandpa_protest @JustinTrudeau “I’m more afraid of climate change than I am of jail, and I’m willing to risk arrest to send a message to @JustinTrudeau: Canada shouldn’t be building more dirty pipelines." -71yo Terry Christenson @grandpa_protest #notmx #transmountain #cdnpoli #bcpoli
@grandpa_protest @JustinTrudeau "The Trans Mountain Pipeline doesn’t have the consent of many of the First Nations it passes through, and thousands of people, including myself, aren’t going to stand by and let it get built." -71yo Terry Christenson @grandpa_protest #notmx #transmountain #cdnpoli #bcpoli
@grandpa_protest @JustinTrudeau “Almost 1/3 of people protesting #TransMountainPipeline are old like me, I think bc we remember what weather patterns used to be like, and how much everything has shifted bc of #climatechange. I hope @JustinTrudeau can see how strongly we oppose this pipeline." -@grandpa_protest
@grandpa_protest @JustinTrudeau "The #TranMountain Pipeline is not in the national interest — what’s really in the national interest is a safe future for our grandchildren, for the climate, and for all of Canada.” -71yo Terry Christenson @grandpa_protest #notmx #transmountain #cdnpoli #bcpoli
