'Move away from fossil fuels immediately, Coalition for a Green New Deal NL tells Furey' - The Telegram September 20, 2020 The Coalition for a Green New Deal recently welcomed Premier Furey into office and encouraged him to take courageous action to transition NL away from fossil fuels and care for our communities. The Premier did not respond to the letter, but thankfully The Telegram reached out and this is the statement from his office “Creating a strong and vibrant offshore oil and gas industry to ensure some of the lowest emission production can continue to be part of the global energy mix is a way that we can help achieve our commitment to net zero emissions by 2050 ,” reads the email. Minister Trimper had a more nuanced approach “I think climate change is definitely the number one threat facing not just this province, but the world ,” he said. "So, we've got to get off carbon-based fuel sources. That said, it isn't going to happen overnight. " We are disappointed in this response from government.

Read Open Letter TikTok - @sjcnl709 Did the city of St. John's avail of its legal right to evict without cause because evicting Shirley for smoking outside the entrance of the building would have revealed their duty to ensure the smoking area for the building was wheelchair accessible? 🧐 #EndNoCauseEvictionsNL "It's reprehensible on the part of the city (of St. John's)" - MHA Jim Dinn on the eviction of Shirley Cox. In this interview Dinn also wonders if the city evicted Shirley without cause to avoid having to make the designated smoking area at her building wheelchair accessible. We think he's onto something there! 🧐 This is a punch in the gut to disability justice activists, who saw many current St John's city councillors co-opt the language of disability justice in their 2021 platforms, only to fail to speak up when it matters most.

Status For All Rally Sept 24, 2023 Hosted by the Migrant Action Centre Scroll down for a digital action! The Social Justice Co-op NL believes in a world without borders. We are imagining and working toward a Revolution of Care , a future that puts care at the core of social organization, instead of profit. We dream of a future where the destruction of thriving ecosystems for profit is brought to and end, where everyone's needs are met, and everyone's dignity is respected, everyone's value is celebrated. Where colonial, capitalist governments no longer decide who is worthy of rights, services, or protections. We know this future is possible and is coming because people, particularly Indigenous, Black, Brown, Queer, Trans, Poor, Disabled, and Migrant feminists & abolitionist dreamers, organizers, and activists have been fighting and working for generations to bring it into being. Citizenship is a category that exists only to exclude, and reinforce the power of a colonial, capitalist state. It renders people who do not have it: excruciatingly vulnerable to brutally harsh exploitation by employers, without access to medical care, and other essential services, vulnerable to detention and deportation, The precarity a lack of status forces people into means that it is scarier and riskier for them to raise their voice against the inhumane treatment that is commonplace among people who are denied status. That is why it’s so important that we raise our collective voice, to speak up for people’s humanity and dignity. There is safety in numbers, and it is often unsafe for migrants to raise their voice and speak up for their rights alone. We must all join the call for Status For All, until none of our neighbours are forced to live without it. Last fall, the SJC attended a meeting with the Migrant Action Centre, Anti Racism Coalition NL, and the Worker Action Network with Minister Seamus O’Regan. He told us he was in favor of Status for All and that he would advocate for it in cabinet. He asked us to hold his feet to the fire on Status for All. And so we humbly ask for your help in doing so! Could you email Minister Seamus O'Regan? His email is: seamus.oregan@parl.gc.ca Ask him for an update on his efforts to advocate for Status for All in cabinet. Ask him if we can count on seeing the federal government move forward with Status for All, and when he expects this to unfold. Go to bit.ly/migrantrightsNL for a template email , which you're welcome to use in full or part. And then, Join the Migrant Rights Network's federal call at https://migrantrights.ca/ Thank you all for taking action! And let’s keep the energy and fight going all week, all year long. Let’s keep it going until we win Status for All!

Project Nujio'qonik Sep 22, 2023 What is Project Nujio'qonik? Project Nujio'qonik is also known as the Port-au-Port & Stephenville Wind Power & Hydrogen Generation Project. It's a wind-to-hydrogen mega-project being proposed by World Energy GH2 for construction on the Port-au-Port peninsula and in the area around Stephenville. The project, if approved, would see 164 wind turbines built on the Port-au-Port peninsula and a Hydrogen Generation Plant built in Stephenville. Who is World Energy GH2? World Energy GH2, founded in 2022, is a NL based subsidiary of a US company called World Energy LLC, one of the USA's biggest suppliers of biodiesel. The CEO of World Energy GH2 is Sean Leet, whose previous appointments include Director and CEO of two Maritime Transportation companies, KOTUG and Horizon Maritime.The chairman of Project Nujio'qonik is Nova Scotian billionaire John Risley, founder of Clearwater Seafoods. (Notice that no one here has any previous experience in wind energy or hydrogen generation) Why are people concerned? A group of local residents called the Environmental Transparency Committee (ETC) outline many reasons for concern in their August 29th media release. Read the release in full by clicking here, or check out some highlights below: "We were already worried when this project was sprung on us last summer," says Marilyn Rowe, Chair of the Sheaves Cove Local Service District. "It was obvious then that trying to crowd 164 giant turbines onto our little peninsula would threaten our environment, our communities and our way of life. The preliminary work on roads and test towers has already caused significant destruction. The EIS [Environmental Impact Statement submitted by World Energy GH2] shows that the impacts will be even worse." The EIS, required by the Province, represents the proponent company's version of the impacts they anticipate and how they will address any problems. It is a massive multi-volume document detailing their technologically complex and economically questionable plan to use the area's wind energy to transform water into hydrogen and then into ammonia for shipment overseas from the port of Stephenville. Like Muskrat Falls before it, this mega-proposal suffers from an extreme form of optimism bias, apparently shared by the provincial government. The Port au Port Peninsula is home to some 4,000 people, a majority of Mi'kmaq descent, and is known for its relatively unspoiled natural environment, its rare and endangered species, and its unique blend of Indigenous, French and English cultures. A year ago when word began to spread there about the proposed mega-project, local people formed the Port Au Port Environmental Transparency Committee to demand a say in the decision-making and an end to the secrecy and conflicts of interest surrounding the project. "We've performed our due diligence, talked to the company, taken part in their staged 'consultations' and challenged their experts," says Nadine Tallack of the ETC. "All during that time, the proponent was continuing their preliminary work, while meeting with the provincially-appointed committee of government employees to make the drastic changes and additions to their original proposal that they have now entrenched in their EIS." With members locally throughout the Peninsula and supporters across Newfoundland and Labrador, the ETC has received formal letters of support from provincial and national organizations, including EnviroWatch NL, the Social Justice Co-operative of Newfoundland and Labrador, CLEAN NL and the Council of Canadians. "This World Energy mega-project is not 'green energy' at all," says Helen Forsey of the Council of Canadians Avalon/NL Chapter. "Its construction alone will require huge amounts of fossil fuels and earth minerals, and its operation will rely on power from the provincial grid to cover fluctuations in the wind source. Moreover, nothing even partially 'green' will stay here in the Province: the ammonia will be shipped overseas to European markets, generating further emissions and wasting more energy to reconvert it to a usable form. Newfoundland/Ktaqmkuk will be left with the devastating environmental and social consequences of the whole profiteering venture." The ETC worked hard to push Minister Guilbeault to designate the project for Federal Impact Assessment. Unfortunately despite the comprehensive case they made, and the many letters of support contributed by groups like the SJC, Council of Canadians, and the FFAW, the minister decided not to designate the project for a federal impact assessment. Instead he left the environmental and impact assessment in the hands of the province. The provincial process is not as comprehensive as the federal one and does not provide any funding for public intervenors, which is how concerned residents get their voices heard in the assessment process. The ETC is now considering setting up a parallel community-run impact assessment process. If you're interested in being involved in this shoot us an email at SocialJusticeCoopNL@gmail.com and we'll put you in touch. A second west coast based group working to ensure concerns about the potential negative impacts of Project Nujio'qonik and others like it get heard is the South Coast Alliance. We had the great pleasure of meeting with Brenda from the South Coast Alliance this week. They are advocating for a "six-month pause, with time extension possibilities, on approving industry projects on the Southwest Coast until proper Cumulative Effects Assessment studies and meaningful consultations are concluded ". This includes the wind-to-hydrogen mega-project proposed by World Energy GH2, Project Nujio'qonik. If you're on Facebook, you can join their group "Protect NL" to stay updated on their activities.
