BFF (Beyond Fossil Fuels) - Stand Strong for Wet'suwet'en Yintah
For GG18 the BFF campaign is focusing on supporting funding for The Wet'suwet'en Nation fighting a massive dangerous LNG project that would move us aggressively in the wrong direction when it comes to fossil fuel dependence. 

The Wet’suwet’en Hereditary Chiefs of Northern B.C., Canada are defending their unceded territory from Coastal GasLink’s (CGL) liquefied natural gas (LNG) pipeline. Coastal GasLink is proposing a 670-km pipeline carrying fracked gas from Dawson Creek to a proposed LNG facility in Kitimat that is is a joint venture company comprised of five global energy companies – Shell, PETRONAS, PetroChina, Mitsubishi Corporation and KOGAS. 

If built, the pipeline would irreversibly lock in decades of fossil fuel extraction at a time when scientists are warning of untold suffering unless all nations rapidly scale down production of fossil fuels. The LNG Canada terminal, if built, will have the capacity to export 14 million tones a year of LNG over its estimated life of 40 years which is equivalent to the annual emissions of approximately 57 million cars.

The Wet’suwet’en Hereditary Chiefs have launched two separate legal actions to defend their rights and title from unwanted industrial activity, and to hold the governments of Canada and British Columbia accountable to climate commitments for future generations. 

The first legal action, launched by all clans of the Wet’suwet’en, acting in unity — seeks a judicial review of Coastal GasLink’s environmental assessment based on multiple permit violations by the company.
The second legal action is a Constitutional challenge asking the Federal Court to declare that Canada has a constitutional duty to keep the country’s greenhouse gas emissions well within the Paris Agreement limit of 2 ̊C above pre-industrial levels. 

If successful, the lawsuit could lead to far-reaching changes to Canada’s environmental legislation.  It would enable the federal cabinet to cancel approvals previously given to fossil fuel projects such as the LNG export facilities like LNG Canada and pipelines proposed for Wet’suwet’en Territories and the northwest B.C. region. 

*“The climate crisis is already hitting our House territories hard. You only have to look at the shrinking Hudson Bay Mountain glacier and count the salmon. If Canada is allowed to continue approving infrastructure for fracked gas projects on a 40-year timeline, our territories will become a wasteland before the project licenses expire.” *
