of Dr. King, MK Gandhi, Bacha Khan, Dorothy Day, Leymah Gbowee, and many more. We will also learn from the examples of people like us who are taking action right now for racial justice, environmental protection, economic justice, and peace. Exploring inner
and outer work, as well as social transformation and movements for change, this course will be participatory, fun, deep, and meaningful. Using podcasts, discussions, and readings, you'll look at people who have stood up for justice, navigated crisis, and brought
love-in-action into our world.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal">The topic theme is the role of petroleum in ongoing tensions and rivalries between the United States, Russia and China. The US, world’s hegemon for thirty years, aims to contain the rise of Russia
and China. Petroleum politics are part of the story, e.g. Nord Stream 2 and Xinjiang. Facing a hostile America, China and Russia have formed a strategic partnership, with both countries investing heavily in pipelines. Since 9/11, Western countries have launched
military interventions and imposed sanctions on one petroleum country after another, even China and Russia. None has been successful. Why does Canada support these actions?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal">During the federal election in Canada, it was startling how major political parties were able to continue to ignore the climate crisis that is all around us. Party platforms and the debates barely
gave lip-service to the climate disaster and the immediate action required to restore the delicate balance with mother earth. Meanwhile, movements across Canada continue to confront resource extraction projects, demand divestment from oil and gas corporations,
and organize in defense of the rights of Indigenous peoples. And the divide between the status-quo environmental policies of the government of Canada and the people of Canada is growing.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal">One might think that public servants are obliged to follow policies and procedures that Canadian government officials testify to in Parliament or publish on the government’s website. But a recent
Federal Court ruling says this is not necessarily so. That case is currently before the Federal Court of Appeal.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal">With support from Mexican and Canadian organizations, the family of environmental defender Mariano Abarca, who was murdered in 2009, is seeking an investigation into the Canadian Embassy in Mexico.
They believe that the Embassy’s unconditional lobbying in support of a Canadian mining company put Mariano’s life in greater danger in the lead up to his murder.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal">This roundtable will discuss Canadian practice when it comes to embassies abroad and conflicts over Canadian mining operations, asking whether Mariano’s case is the pattern or an exception. We
will also explore what policy Canadian officials should be expected to follow in such cases, and how Canada’s human rights obligations are fulfilled. Finally, do we have any way to hold public officials to account when things go wrong?<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:normal">The recent IPCC report has made the world strikingly aware that the current rate of climate change is a ‘code red for humanity’. Yet, the role of the military as the world’s single greatest emitter
in use of fossil fuels is sorely overlooked in traditional environment discussions. How can we raise awareness about this connection and address the role of militarism as a root cause of climate change? What are the connections between climate action, feminism,
and peace? As we begin the road to COP26, join WILPF members from Germany, Sweden, Norway, Canada and Zimbabwe as they discuss the situation in their region and share how they are mobilising feminist values to campaign for an end to militarism and towards
climate justice, from the grassroots to the international level. Organized by the Women's International League for Peace & Freedom (WILPF).<o:p></o:p></p>
