Friends,

This past weekend a wave of people power rose on the Bay of Fundy in New Brunswick.

Over 700 people came from across Atlantic Canada and beyond to march in the small seaside community of Red Head. This is where the proposed Energy East pipeline would ship 1.1 million barrels of tar sands oil per day to be stored and exported from the Bay of Fundy.

It was remarkable to see this small community organize such a phenomenal mobilization to protect the coast, the climate and the local economy:

This growing momentum is more than just a surge of opposition to the Energy East pipeline. It is part of a broader movement of people from all facets of Canadian society who are ready to move past fossil fuels and unite to demand a justice based transition to a clean energy... economy.

That’s why this summer, communities across Canada are gathering to take action for jobs, justice & the climate. Here’s how you can get involved:

On July 4th join with communities standing up for the water, land and climate and demanding a new economy in Canada at a We > Tar Sands action. Click here to find an action near you.

Together we can make Canada’s economy work for people and the planet.

In hope and solidarity,

Aurore
