Derek, imagine a massive oil spill less than a kilometre from your home or your child’s preschool. Your whole neighbourhood suffering terrible health effects. Being unable to move away, knowing the contamination is poisoning you. It happened to Susan and Michelle when oil giant Enbridge spilled over three million litres of Tar Sands oil into Michigan’s Kalamazoo River one year ago today. Enbridge hasn't cleaned up this mess, but they're already pushing plans that will threaten communities and salmon-bearing rivers from Alberta to British Columbia’s pristine coast. Stop their proposed pipeline now -- before we’re all on clean-up duty. We need only look to the Kalamazoo to understand what Enbridge's plan would cost us: Still closed a year later, the Kalamazoo harbors piles of oil that have even contaminated a lake over 40 km away.1 A report released this month showed that heavy metals (high levels are present in Tar Sands oil) are in the water supply at dangerous levels.2 Enbridge promised Michelle that they would pay for people to relocate from her neighbourhood (just 200 feet from the spill), but she hasn’t seen a dime. Of her 70 neighbours directly affected by the spill, the company has only helped three. Michelle has this message for you: "I don't want to see this happen to another community. You need to continue to fight, not just for yourself but for future generations." Can you help us stop Enbridge now?

NO MORE CHANCES: STOP ENBRIDGE'S PROPOSED TAR SANDS PIPELINE ACROSS CANADA Our communities and wildlife can't afford to suffer another Enbridge oil spill. On the anniversary of the three million litre Michigan spill, the company still hasn't cleaned up the mess. Let’s stop Enbridge from making the same mistake in Canada. Stop Enbridge Now >>
