Ocean Hyland, a 22 year old activist from the Tsleil-Waututh Nation in Canada, traveled to London to ask the Chair and the Board at the Barclays Annual General Meeting to reconsider financing a Canadian pipeline project, carrying oil from the tar sands in Alberta through British Columbia to the coast.
Tar sands are extending their destruction through a pipeline threatening her home, her people’s livelihoods, and the environment shared with enormous biodiversity.
