Nooo we can't close the oil fields, the oil oligarchs will get mad!!!

Fuck off and grow a backbone. Develop policy where the companies can't sue the government and the government can cancel the deal or alter regulations as needed. If oil is truly that profitable, its worth the risk.

In my province, the premier was able to prevent any lawsuit coming their way from injured cyclists after banning and removing bike lanes. Why do we let rich corporations walk all over us while only showing a backbone to our own populations? Allowing this to continue sets a dangerous precedent that laws and regulations only apply to those who can't afford to sue against them.

Then change the fucking laws. You run the damn country, do your damn job.

Ok lets see here, one one hand lots of lawsuits....ok yeah that's bad. On the other side..... everyone dies oh geez ok lawsuits it is then.

...no wait I missed this small print... everyone dies, but maybe not for a while. Oh right, let's go with that then!

Thanks. I wasn't aware of the specific mechanism in our trade agreements. No government should be compromising their right to make public policy.
