get the trading away our forests poster
pdf format
This April, government representatives from 34 western hemisphere nations will descend on Quebec City to negotiate the future of global trade for half of the planet.  This agreement will compromise decades of struggle to value and protect the land and all its inhabitants. For the month of March and April, the "roadshow" will be travelling across Canada stopping in various communities building resistance against the FTAA and in defense of the forests, people and the planet.

Industrial clearcut logging and corporate resource extraction on unceeded Native land is beginning to be recognized as unsound, unethical, and just plain wrong by people around the world.  Will our voices be heard as corporations and governments negotiate away our right to oppose their policies of profits before all else?

We will not allow our hands to be tied by corrupt governments and greedy multinational corporations! A wave of resistance is building to shut down their negotiations in Quebec CIty. Join us and discover the role you can play in reigning in this system run amok.
Our presentation will highlight the forests and communities of resistance in the territory known as "British Columbia," and across Kanada. We will also be exposing and planning actions against TD Bank, the largest bank and second largest corporation in Canada. TD is a key player in the world of global finance and one of the biggest investors in InterFor and West Fraser, two of the main destroyers of the Great Bear Rainforest. A dynamic movement of ordinary citizens has been changing the face of the forest industry in this country. As we all fight the monster of a global economy, let us stand in solidarity to create a global resistance.
