Shell: Own UP, Pay UP, Clean UP!


701 Portage Shell Gas Station
May 16, 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm

Amnesty International has launched an international campaign to urge Shell to own up, pay up and clean up. 

Amnesty International Group 19 hopes that the message from Winnipeg will be heard at Shell’s Annual General Meeting which will take place in The Hague on May 22, 2012. 

We have created a human sculpture to add to the voices of Amnesty members around the world who are asking Shell to take responsibility for the devastation in the Niger Delta. 

Please join us at our protest!
