I am currently dangling from a tripod, blocking the entrance to @rbc , the 5th largest fossil fuel funder in the world because decades of politely asking banks to stop fueling climate change hasn’t worked.

Yes I am too old for this shit.

We’re disrupting bank business-as-usual because BAU is killing us. Canada’s big 5 banks have put over $800 billion into fossil fuels since the Paris Agreement was signed. RBC has put $390M into the Coastal Gaslink pipeline #fossilbanks

I’m a middle-aged dad with a mild fear of heights. I hsve been politely asking banks to stop funding fossil fuels for decades but they want to sell gasoline to the arsonists and water to the fire department

We want him to look at it every time that he makes a decision on whether to fund fossil fuels. We want him to agree to meet with affected communities in Lytton & Wet’suwet’en & look them in the eyes

The profits his bank is making by worsening the climate crisis have real, painful costs in the here and now.

RBC has provided $390M to the Coastal Gaslink pipeline, and the pipeline company’s parent Corp is housed in the RBC tower we are blocking today #gitimden

When banks go along with a militarized RCMP invasion of Wet’suwet’en territory to make money, that’s wrong. RBC has refused to meet with the Wet’suwet’en - they should. #WetsuwetenStrong

Hearing that RBC had a town hall for staff today & re @GreenpeaceCA protest “Leaders said the government asks them to fund this stuff [fossil fuels]” Say it ain’t so, @s_guilbeault #fossilbanks

@climatekeith The Lytton fire that was arson, that one?

@climatekeith Lytton fire looks like a human caused it, maybe one of your fellow activists?

@climatekeith Still a chance the lytton fire started with a church fire, so !!

@climatekeith The Lytton home was burned by arson.

@climatekeith Good lord man, prior to this year, Lytton also held our countries heat record. Do you know how long that record was held?

@climatekeith I thought Lytton was caused by arson?

@climatekeith Re Lytton, ask John Horgan to reinstate forest management practices that BC abandoned in 2003.
