Thank you, Ashley Jazayeri (for Brent Rheaume) <personal information removed> Brent Rheaume, P.Eng., PMP <contact information removed> AB <email address removed> February 29, 2016 Pacific NorthWest LNG Project Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency 410 - 701 West Georgia Street Vancouver, British Columbia V7Y 1C6 Via Email: [email protected] Dear Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency, I am writing to you today to express my strong support for Pacific NorthWest LNG. Pacific NorthWest LNG (“PNW”) has participated in a lengthy and comprehensive environmental review of the PNW project. I have been impressed with PNW’s willingness to incorporate feedback from the local community and First Nations into the design of the facility, and I believe we can have responsible industrial development that maintains the integrity of the environment for all Canadians. PNW is willing and eager to invest billions of dollars into the Canadian economy. This investment will provide near and long term employment for Canadians. It will also generate billions of dollars of tax and royalty income for municipal, provincial and federal governments for decades to come. This is especially relevant in these times of slow economic growth. The government has stated many times that building of infrastructure is key to helping the Canadian economy in these difficult times. PNW is proposing to do exactly that in a responsible and environmentally sensitive manner. PNW deserves the Canadian Government’s strong support. I am asking the Government of Canada to approve Pacific NorthWest LNG’s environmental certificate.

The Honourable Marc Garneau P.C., M.P. Minister of Foreign Affairs of Canada Global Affairs Canada 125 Sussex Drive Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0G2 Tuesday, June 22nd 2021 Object: Audit of the financial and personal connections of Hong Kong officials in Canada Dear Minister, We the undersigned, are writing to raise our concern about the deteriorating human rights situation in Hong Kong and to urge the Canadian Government to undertake an audit of the financial and personal connections Hong Kong officials have in Canada. In the recent months, we have seen Beijing continue its crackdown on the pro-democracy movement in Hong Kong with the mass arrest and charging of 47 pro-democracy activists under the National Security Law, the introduction of electoral reform which would prevent pro- democracy parties from standing for election, the freezing of the owner of Apple Daily Jimmy Lai’s assets, the passing of an Immigration Bill which would give the Chinese Government the power to restrict freedom of movement into and out of the city, and the banning of the June 4 Tiananmen Square vigil. In the middle of Beijing’s destruction of Hong Kong’s autonomy, rule of law, and way of life, stand thousands of Canadian citizens who are fearful of their future in the city. They are desperately waiting on the Canadian Government and its allies to act. With nearly every prominent pro-democracy voice in Hong Kong in jail, awaiting trial, or overseas in exile, it is clear that there is an increased need for a robust and coordinated response against the Hong Kong officials who are responsible for human rights abuses and the crackdown on the pro- democracy movement in the city.

Stop Cheap Shrimp
www.arcticseafood.sg STOP CHEAP SHRIMP Executive Summary Cheap and unsustainable shrimp imports to Canada are dangerous for humans and environment. Antibiotic-resistant shrimp make their way here and pose the risk of causing fatal infections1,2. Other artifacts of cheap shrimp are slavery, habitat loss, and destruction of coastal cities. Canada must stand against unsustainable shrimp imports. Why Shrimp Health & Nutrition Only 5% of our food imports are inspected at the border, leaving 95% of imports to enter Canada uninspected3. Unsustainable imported shrimp from countries like Thailand and India were recently sent back for containing Nitrofurans, a carcinogen antibiotic2. But antibiotic- resistant bacteria are making their way to Canada despite 5% being inspected. These bacteria can harbour disease and cause fatal infections2. We don’t need to consume shrimp to ensure a healthy lifestyle. Canada’s 2019 food www.cbc.ca/news guide recommends “choosing protein foods that come from plants”4. Antibiotic use on domestic shrimp is banned Arvin Bahrabadi by CFIA, yet imported shrimp are not held to the same standard2. Antibiotic resistance is one of the biggest @ArvinBahrabadi threats to global health5. Once these organisms are here, (Twitter) there is no good way of stopping them from spreading.

Has Written to Foreign Affairs Minister Marc Garneau
May 13, 2021 BY E-MAIL: [email protected] The Honourable Marc Garneau, P.C., M.P. Minister of Foreign Affairs 125 Sussex Drive Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0G2 RE: Support for Dr. David Scheffel Dear Minister, On behalf of the 72,000 academic staff members of the Canadian Association of University Teachers (CAUT), we write to express grave concern over the detention and imprisonment in Slovakia of Dr. David Scheffel, a permanent Canadian resident and scholar. Dr. Scheffel, an anthropology professor of nearly 30 years at Thompson Rivers University, was arrested in Prešov, Slovakia in 2017 on the charges of sexual exploitation and child pornography. He was undertaking anthropological research into Roma sex work and the local sex trade. His lawyers claim that the charges brought against Dr. Scheffel are likely an attempt to undercut his advocacy for Slovakia’s vulnerable and marginalized Roma population. Dr. Scheffel received full ethics clearance from his University to conduct this research and his detention and denial of a fair trial violates international human rights and widely accepted principles of academic freedom. While in detention, he was subjected to harsh conditions while also being denied access to the research materials necessary to mount a fair and full defense. During his trial, the presiding judge took into consideration only the testimonies provided without the presence of Dr. Scheffel’s lawyer. Dr. Scheffel’s lawyer was also not provided the opportunity for cross- examination. On February 24, 2021, the Regional Court in Prešov sentenced Dr. Scheffel to seven years in prison. His lawyer has requested an investigation of the case to the Slovakian Supreme Court.

March 8, 2021 Office of the Prime Minister 80 Wellington Street
March 8, 2021 Office of the Prime Minister 80 Wellington Street Ottawa, ON K1A 0A2 The Right Honourable Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister of Canada: KAIROS is gravely concerned about the differentiated impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the most marginalized communities in Canada and the Global South. We are writing to you at this time with concerns about the growing inequities worldwide in access, distribution and administration of COVID-19 vaccines. We support efforts by your government to ensure fair and equitable access to vaccines in Canada, with priorities shown for First Nations, Métis and Inuit communities, together with the elderly and health-care workers. We also applaud your government’s financial commitments to the global COVAX facility, as well as efforts to procure treatments and to share surplus doses with middle- and low-income countries. But more can be done to ensure that everyone is safe and that vaccines reach the most vulnerable populations in Canada and throughout the world. Informed by our international and domestic partners, KAIROS calls on your government to: Join efforts within the World Trade Organization (WTO)—initiated by South Africa and India, and already supported by about 100 countries— for a waiver from provisions of the TRIPS agreement for the prevention, containment, and treatment of COVID-19 at the WTO TRIPS Council. Support efforts among the G20 nations and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to release U.S. $3 trillion of global reserve funds (“Special Drawing Rights”) to support crisis response and recovery efforts in medium- and low-income countries. Develop, here in Canada, a plan to assure vaccines are made available to migrant workers and people who are undocumented, as called for by Canada’s Migrant Rights Network: https://migrantrights.ca/vaccinesforall/.

The Potential for a U.S.-Canadian Spacefaring Partnership
February 2019 The Potential for a U.S.-Canadian Spacefaring Partnership Canada’s Role in The U.S. Return to Space Leadership By Sean Kelly and Christopher Sands Nearly 50 years ago, the U.S. space program sent a manned mission to the Moon and returned everyone safely. That achievement served as an inspiration for people around the world, and next door. In Ottawa, Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau was moved to reach out to Washington and negotiate a partnership between Canadian scientists and NASA that would lead to the formation of the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) in 1989. A young Canadian named Chris Hadfield saw the moon landing and determined to become an astronaut – writing an award-winning children’s book about that experience. Donald Trump as 45th President of the United States has seized upon space as a major policy priority. The Trump administration’s ambition to reclaim U.S. leadership in space and remind Americans of their heritage as a “spacefaring nation” could inspire a new generation of Canadians to follow Hadfield into space, and provide Prime Minister Justin Trudeau with an opening to partner with the United States and re-launch the partnership between the United States and Canada in space. Re-establishing Space as a U.S. National Priority President Trump is rearranging existing institutional structures to implement the multi-agency, multi-departmental effort in the U.S. federal government to develop policies and priorities to realize the return to space. These institutions have in turn delivered a number of policy directives that have given specific definition to U.S.

Hon. Marc Garneau Minister of Transport House of Commons Ottawa, Ontario, K1A 0A6 [email protected]
Hon. Marc Garneau Minister of Transport House of Commons Ottawa, Ontario, K1A 0A6 [email protected] October 3, 2017 Dear Minister Garneau, Re: Support for Bill C-48 We write to express our strong support for the passage of Bill C-48, the Oil Tanker Moratorium Act. Over many decades, most recently in opposition to the Enbridge Northern Gateway project, northern communities and Indigenous nations have repeatedly demonstrated a clear resolve to keep the waters of northern British Columbia permanently free from oil tankers. We applaud the federal government for recognizing that the unique ecosystems and local economies of BC’s north coast must be protected from the risk of potentially devastating oil spills, and for clearly stating that the region is no place for oil tankers. The enactment of Bill C-48 will bring life to these statements through concrete federal action. A number of signatories to this letter intend to engage in the Parliamentary Committee process to make constructive submissions on how Bill C-48 can be further strengthened. We look forward to seeing a strong Oil Tanker Moratorium Act promptly passed into law.

Letter to Prime Minister Trudeau Re Radioactive Waste Policy
The Right Honourable Justin Trudeau September 19 2017 Prime Minister of Canada Dear Prime Minister Trudeau: Canada is at the dawn of a new era: the Age of Nuclear Waste. Yet this country has no official policy regarding the long-term management of any radioactive wastes other than irradiated nuclear fuel. A federal policy on radioactive wastes other than irradiated fuel is urgently needed. The absence of such a policy in effect gives a green light for the approval of three ill-considered projects to abandon long-lived radioactive wastes at sites very close to major bodies of water – wastes that will remain hazardous for hundreds of thousands of years. One is a gigantic multi- story mound, on the surface at Chalk River, one kilometre from the Ottawa River, meant to permanently house up to a million cubic metres of mixed radioactive wastes. The other two projects involve the in-situ abandonment of the long-lived radioactive remains from two defunct nuclear reactors – the NPD reactor at Rolphton on the Ottawa River, and the WR-1 reactor at Pinawa on the Winnipeg River. These projects pose a threat to future generations, and they set a dreadful example for other countries looking to Canada for socially and environmentally acceptable policies and practices. All three projects involve radioactive wastes that are the sole responsibility of the government of Canada; yet in each case, the projects have been conceived by a private consortium of multinational corporations hired by the previous federal government under a time-limited contract. The previous government also ensured that the approvals process for all three projects is entirely in the hands of the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC), a body whose independence has been challenged from many quarters.
