"IT'S A MATTER OF BASIC JUSTICE..."
- AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL

By engaging on social media and sparking satellite events across Canada/Turtle Island, Poets for the Peace aims to raise awareness and funds to support those directly affected by the proposed project and related litigation.

​Building off the strength of the original Vancouver event, we want to encourage poets, artists, musicians, established series and concerned individuals of all talents to add their voice to the fight for the Peace. ​No work or event is too small, learn more here. 

FIND OUT WHY WE CAN'T AFFORD THIS.

Why speak up now?
Despite outstanding court cases challenging the project, construction has begun in an attempt to get things past the point of no return.    
But it's not too late. 
And those who have been fighting this project for decades need your support more than ever.
