Human rights impacts. Missing reports. Traffic safety concerns. Pressure tactics. No plans for waste management. No transparency or accountability mechanisms. No legacy benefits for the community.

These are just a few of the issues with Woodfibre LNG's application for a Temporary Use Permit for a floating workcamp to house up to 650 workers.

On Tuesday, April 23, the District of Squamish is holding a public hearing to listen to the community’s concerns as they consider this application.

Three ways you can take action!

This is a critical moment in the fight to stop Woodfibre LNG. Tell the District of Squamish to reject Woodfibre LNG's floating workcamp!

1. Send a letter to council by 6pm, April 23.

We've put together a list of key concerns and a template letter to make it easy. Use our letter writing tool or email council directly: hearing@squamish.ca

Personalized messages are the most impactful.

2. Come out and hold a sign

No preparation necessary! Grab a sign at the entrance and hold it up during the public hearing from 6pm till late. RSVP here!

3. Sign up to speak at the public hearing
