Honest Government Ad | Selling Canada to MAGA oligarchs

This LNG project is cooked on so many levels. And not just because of it's deep connections to Trump and MAGA oligarchs. But I'll let the video do the explaining.

What I do want to highlight though, is that we in Australia are perfectly placed to warn Canadians about the dangers of investing in an LNG export industry. We went down this path years ago, and we still got shafted with higher energy prices and bugger-all royalties. But doing this in 2025, in the midst of a climate crisis, is just criminal.

And the fact that our very own Woodside Energy is involved in Ksi Lisims makes that point even clearer. So of course (spoiler alert) we had to have an Aussie/Woodside cameo.

Warning Canadians is only part of this HGA's objective, however: we also made it to support the Gitxsan and Gitanyow, whose territories (Lax'Yip) are in the pathway of the proposed PRGT pipeline that would feed fracked gas to Ksi Lisims.

First Nation peoples are often on the frontlines of the fight to protect clean land, air and water from extractivist industries. So supporting them isn't only important from a justice perspective, but also from a climate and environmental one.

And believe me, the Gitxsan and Gitanyow are going to be the biggest obstacle to building the PRGT pipeline. Such is their staunchness and determination to protect the Lax'Yip - one of the few parts of the world where you can still drink from clean rivers and see wild salmon.

It was truly inspiring to witness this when we where invited to attend the Peace and Unity summit on the Lax'Yip in August. (Here's my post about that trip, in case you missed it)So yeah... this HGA is our way of lending them a hand, by rainsing awarenss about this dodgy, MAGA-billionaire-owned project, in Canada. Where most people know nothing about it.

I spupport Juice Media on Pateron, if you can do that too, great. If you can't do that please share.
