No Keystone XL Pipeline Rally - Protest November 6th 2011
"On Sunday November 6 we will return to Washington. Exactly one year before the election, we want to encircle the whole White House in an act of solemn protest."..."We’re not expecting any arrests at this action, but we are expecting to send an unmistakable, unavoidable message."

When we can't trust our Son of an Oil Baron "leader" harper with our rights and civil liberties people rise above the rhetoric and bring this tyrants agenda to light.  
We are the change.

Pipe dreams?
Jobs Gained, Jobs Lost

by the Construction of Keystone XL
a report by Cornell University Global Labor Institute
" ....based on the publicly available data—that the construction of KXL will create far fewer jobs in the US than its proponents have claimed and may actually destroy more jobs than it generates." http://www.ilr.cornell.edu/globallaborinstitute/research/upload/GLI_KeystoneXL_Reportpdf.pdf

OTTAWA NO PIPELINE RALLY SEPT 26 2011

After a long silence, finally beyond the propaganda and spin, the truth is being heard, undeniably.
Thank you to all those who took action towards the Canadian / US atrocity called the Keystone XL TransCanada Pipelines.

117 arrests were made, all were released without charges. 

400 police for 300 protestors? Violence would only justify the tromping all over our civil liberties. We are above the violent oppressive intent of our government.

CTV on the Keystone XL Pipeline... currently airs more spin and unfounded rhetoric on behalf of the oil tycoons.
Major Propaganda in the US - Keystone Spins the Media:
TransCanada is fighting back by saturating the Washington media market with ads contending the U.S. economy can't do without Keystone XL. The actual numbers are about 5000 jobs over 3 years! Is this justification for destroying our health and future of our children.
