Incredible, yes. And yet, today @RBC CEO Dave McKay -- head of Canada's Worst Bank -- gets the #OrderOfOntario. For what? We're guessing for climate denial, Indigenous rights violations, ceaseless lobbying & intense greenwashing. #KillTheDrill #RBCisKillingMe #OrderOfOntario twitter.com/catabreu_/stat…

Actually, @RBC CEO Dave McKay is so awful that Hollywood stars have told him they won't bank with him. His name is mud among reasonable citizens. Why pin a ribbon on his chest? #KillTheDrill #RBCisKillingMe #OrderOfOntario twitter.com/NoDirtyBanks/s…

Why, in a climate crisis, is your office honouring a man who refuses to engage with Indigenous leaders? A man who forces unneeded pipelines across unceded territories?

Hi @RBC: on the #STOPEACOP site, you’re quoted as saying “RBC is not involved” in financing the East African Crude Oil Pipeline, even though you lent @TotalEnergies 1.45$BN in recent years. stopeacop.net/banks-checklist The question: Why are you not financing EACOP?
