The Day the Circus Came to Town
It’s one thing for the Kenney government to ignore little Swedish
girls with pigtails, it’s quite another to blow off HSBC, one of the
world’s largest banks, and other investors like pension funds, post

which refuse to invest in oil and gas companies or limit their
investments to companies like Shell, BP, Suncor and Cenovus, which have
carbon deintensification and renewable energy strategies.

The threat of global divestment in response to rising concerns about
climate change is real, however it’s one Mr Kenney is prepared to
ignore.
