Excellent evening of information on the Quebec Hydrocarbon Bill in Sorel-Tracy tonight!
Bill 106 presented to the National Assembly would, if passed, allow oil companies to expropriate property owners, do hydraulic fracturing in urban and agricultural areas, enter on land without authorization, ignore municipal objections, etc.
By introducing this bill, the Couillard government is laying the groundwork for a new conflict, the second shale gas battle.
In solidarity with elected municipal officials, citizens and activists who oppose Bill 106 and the exploitation of Quebec’s hydrocarbons.
