"Whereas Chevron Corporation owns 20 percent of the Alberta oil sands development controlled by Royal Dutch Shell; and

"Whereas Villagers in Ecuador obtained a US$19-billion judgment against Chevron following a decades-long court case, proving the environmental and human devastation caused by the corporation,  which the plaintiffs are currently attempting to enforce in Ontario, Canada; and

"Whereas Chevron Corporation has revenues larger than the GDPs of 138 Nations, yet it refuses to pay-up and concede to its wrongdoings in Ecuador;

"Whereas Chevron Corporation is also the cause of millions of deaths and illnesses around the world because of irresponsible and unsafe operations;

"Therefore, we, the undersigned, petition the House of Commons as follows:

"Prevent Chevron Corporation from conducting business in Canada until they right their wrongs in Ecuador by settling with the Indigenous plaintiffs; and clean up their act, strictly adhering to both socially and environmentally responsible practices both overseas and in Canada.”
