@kurtisbaute 1. Pipelines are the safest way to transport the oil/gas that we all rely on, including yourself.

2. Standing in the way of this project only helps countries with weaker standards for human rights.

3. #TMX has overwhelming support from #Indigenous communities, which you ignore.
@kurtisbaute 4. #TransMountain has been studied and reviewed for years, and it won approval according to our stringent regulatory and legal processes.

5. Canada is a global leader in resource governance, ranking 4th overall and leading top oil exporting jurisdictions.
@kurtisbaute 6. There are 6,000+ women and men working on this project, who want to support their families. Who are you to tell them they can’t?

7. Canada has been the only top oil exporter to the USA and global top oil reserve holder with carbon pricing, since 2007.
@kurtisbaute 8. The existing pipeline has operated since the 1950’s without operator caused catastrophe and without marine incident.

9. There are Alaskan oil tankers on the West Coast, not subject to Canada’s leading marine safety standards, they get a free pass from people like you. Why?
@kurtisbaute 10. Most climbing equipment is made possible by oil/gas, why don’t you want the feedstock for your consumer products sourced from places, like Canada, with highest commitment to reducing enviro impact?

11. Canada was just named 2nd globally for 2021 clean technology index.
@kurtisbaute 12. Canada’s oil and gas industry is the largest investor in clean technology in the country.

13. The world needs $2 Trillion of investment in oil/gas production by 2030 to avoid shortages. Why are you supporting market share for other producers with weaker climate standards?
@kurtisbaute 13. Canada’s a leader in renewables, we are taking meaningful steps on #ClimateAction - but ignoring the reality of global oil/gas demand doesn’t help anyone. We will need all forms for decades to come.

14. Come down from your tree Fort and don’t endanger emergency responders!❤️
