What’s BC Mining Week?
The City of Vancouver plans to become the “greenest city in the world.” It is also home to the world’s largest conglomeration of mining companies. Beginning on April 29th 2013, Vancouver will host BC Mining Week. After an opening gala, where the “Mining Person of the Year Award 2012” will be granted, BC’s mining industry leaders will spend a week wining and dining at receptions, awards ceremonies and charitable events.
On their websites and in press releases, extractive corporations claim to bring economic and social ‘development’ to local and indigenous communities in BC and across the world. But the “greenwashing” can’t hide the increasing reports of conflict, environmental devastation, water toxicity and scarcity, human and indigenous rights violations, and violent repression–even murder–of residents who speak out in opposition to extractive projects.
Weren’t invited to the BC Mining Week Opening Gala? Join us for the Toxic Tour of Vancouver’s Mining Industry and A People’s Gala! of Celebration and Remembrance / to Celebrate and Honour Community Resistance to Unjust Mining
Ever wondered why so many mining companies set up shop in Vancouver? Exactly what is BC Mining Week celebrating?
The Canadian government actively assists extractive corporations with tax breaks, subsidies, lax stock market regulations, diplomatic support, and immunity from prosecution for environmental destruction and human rights abuses overseas.
