Hi all,
 I'm sure you've seen that things have intensified in the last couple of days on Kinder Morgan. Brent and I were on the Hill yesterday as PM Trudeau met with Premiers Notley and Horgan - no Indigenous voices were invited or present - on the Kinder Morgan pipeline.
We managed to time it so we were outside with our respect Indigenous rights banner (which the RCMP threatened to arrest us for having out near centre block!) just before the Premiers arrived and chanted respect Indigenous rights as Notley walked in (as captured in national news).
Some updates and asks: - We've created a tweet action. PM Trudeau has said he will bring forward legislation soon to support and finance the Kinder Morgan pipeline. This is outrageous. How else would you use $2billion? See the action here (and please tweet!) https://secure. canadians.org/page/23048/ tweet/2 - Please use this opportunity to sign and reshare our petition to PM Trudeau on Kinder Morgan which just surpassed 5000! https://secure. canadians.org/page/22680/ action/1 - If you are on a 350.org list, you'll see there is an organizing meeting being called for Thursday at 8:00. Some of us will be on the call, there will be an ask for people to target Liberal MP offices in the coming weeks with messages on Kinder Morgan. I hope we can talk about this more (maybe host our own chapter call) and take this up!  - Here in Ottawa (unceded Algonquin territory) we're thinking through what we will do to mobilize when Trudeau tables this proposed legislation. We will respond - more on this soon.
In solidarity,
