In case you missed it, Dalhousie University moves one major step forward towards divestment yesterday by initiating a fund search. We’re ready to keep the pressure on so they go the distance and divest! #fossilfree #divestnow #dalhousieu bit.ly/2Bt9xtS @DalPres @lstordy

If you're joining the #BCwine "buycott", remember that this alone won't stop #KinderMorgan. We must support Indigenous-led resistance and solutions: - protecttheinlet.ca #protecttheinlet - @tsleilwaututh - #TinyHouseWarriors - @Indigenous_ca #stopKM

We met with @DalPres and @lstordy yesterday about a 3rd-party fund search for #fossilfree investments. The next step for this proposal is a vote at the Board of Governors on Feb 13. Show up and show your support! #divest facebook.com/events/10433707…

A diesel spill in Howe Sound Wednesday is a dark reminder of the danger of fossil fuels. @JustinTrudeau's Ocean Protection Plan couldn't protect Howe Sound from this disaster, and it won't protect the Burrard Inlet from Kinder Morgan either. #stopKM bit.ly/2rU7aNm

We started speaking up 2 months ago & @JustinTrudeau hasn't committed to a proper review for the largest open pit #tarsands mine ever proposed. Tell the PM that #TeckFrontier needs a real review that considers climate change & Indigenous rights. #cdnpoli gofossilfree.org/canada/

"Sandy didn't happen by accident. For decades Big Oil ravaged the environment." New York City mayor just announced a lawsuit against Exxon, Shell, BP & other Big Oil companies for the damages caused by climate change. + NYC's #divestment from fossil fuels. #keepitintheground

We're getting set for #DalhousieU's Board of Governors meeting starting in less than an hour, where @AAyton will speak on behalf of our team. We weren't originally on the agenda, but our direct action got us there. Read more here: bit.ly/2AeMeni @CBCNS @TwitCoast

If you couldn't make it the Board of Governors meeting this morning, there's still a way you can help us put pressure on the Board. Sign + share this petition with your friends, which sends individual letters to each decision maker! bit.ly/2i3S2ZZ #divestdal #divestnow

1 speaker before @AAyton who will lay down the harsh truth about the 3 yrs since this board rejected divestment. No more excuses #divestnow – at Halifax, Nova Scotia

Divestment hasn't been discussed at the Board level in almost three years, but after a week long occupation of the main Quad at #DalhousieU, @DivestDal has been offered a chance to address the Board of Governors. Follow @DivestDal for updates from inside the meeting. teapaw.org/DivestDal/status/93585…
Board room is full with students and supporters of #divestment.
