Why
EquinorOUT

Equinor has less than 1% of investments in renewables and continues to invest in oil and gas projects in Newfoundland and Labrador and beyond. We ask that Equinor align with global predictions of success and to get out of oil and gas. 

#equinorOUT - Stop Bay du Nord is a recent project aimed at raising awareness and mobilizing action to stop Equinor, a Norwegian energy company, from proceeding with their proposed Bay du Nord oil project in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. The project highlights the environmental risks and potential negative impact on local communities, and seeks to advocate for sustainable, alternative energy solutions.

The Bay du Nord project is made up of several oil discoveries in the Flemish Pass basin, located about 500 km northeast of St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. The initial discovery was made by Equinor in 2013, followed by others in 2014, 2016, and 2020.

This directly threatens our whale population.

We acknowledge that Ktaqamkuk is the unceded and unsurrendered land of the Mi'kmaq peoples who have taken care of this land for centuries. We also wish to acknowledge the Inuit and Innu of Labrador. We acknowledge that the white settler colonial state has been built through Indigenous genocide and land theft, the enslavement and labour theft of people of African descent through the trans-Atlantic slave trade, the fifteen thousand Chinese men who worked under exploitative conditions to build Canada’s first transcontinental railroad, the internment and forced labor of twelve thousand Japanese Canadians, and the thousands of refugees and migrants denied refuge into so-called Canada throughout its history.
