Friends, the time for action is NOW.

Yet the International Joint Commission (IJC) continues to keep the outflows through the Moses Saunders Dam low to protect the multi-national shipping industry. They continue to favour Navigation use over Domestic use, despite the "order of precedence" in the 1909 Treaty. If this continues, the shoreline will be decimated. The IJC calls this 'balancing all interests'.

We are running out of time - IF NAVIGATION IS NOT SUSPENDED FOR THE MONTH OF DECEMBER, the shoreline of Ontario and New York will flood catastrophically in 2020, with immeasurable social, environmental and economic harm.

The domestic shoreline sacrificed while the multi-national shipping industry thrives. Haven't we had enough of this environmental and social terrorism?

We need 15,000 to 20,000 signatures to get the attention of Prime Minster Trudeau and President Trump. PLEASE SHARE THIS PETITION BROADLY, and make sure you sign.

BREAKING NEWS! A PROTEST MARCH has been announced. There will be a march from the IJC offices in Ottawa to Parliament Hill on November 23rd, 2019. Get your life jackets on and come make your voices heard! See details here
