Bill C-39 dismantles Canada’s environmental policy ‘beyond anything we’ve ever seen,’ say climate groups - The Hill Times

"… in the face of clear evidence of current harm and the substantial likelihood of growing harm in the future, the prudent thing to do would be to reduce fossil fuel use as rapidly and as soon as possible. To fail to do so, and indeed to support fossil fuel expansion through continuing subsidies, weakening of regulations and ongoing private and public investment amounts to reckless disregard." "Clearly the expansionary actions of the fossil fuel industry, governments and private and public sector investors, in Canada and around the world, amount to ecocide." https://www.hilltimes.com/2026/09/24/fossil-fuel-expansion-is-ecocide-a-crime-against-nature-and-humanity/519219/ #Canada #CDNPoli #BCPoli #NoPipelines #ClimateCrisis #Ecocide #BillC39

Fossil fuel expansion is ecocide: a crime against nature and humanity - The Hill Times

The expansionary actions of the fossil-fuel industry, governments and private and public-sector investors, in Canada and around the world, amount to ecocide. While not yet technically a crime, their actions are morally unacceptable.
