In a press release issued February 25, 2011, members of ROJeP speak on the ethical issue raised by the issue of shale gas. The right of the people's well-being and respect of its territory premium on privileges granted to the industry. Members of ROJeP strongly deplored the government's refusal to hear the democratic demands of a moratorium that would demonstrate its commitment to the well-being and the integrity of their territory. They require the immediate cessation of exploration activities and require the holding of a moratorium to take a step back. "This seems all the more essential that in the current folder, everything suggests that a thorough analysis could lead to denial of global exploitation of shale gas. Quebec has the potential to become a world leader in renewable energy, but this can not happen without political will. To this end, the economy must serve the people and territory of ensuring free, prior and informed consent of communities. "
the Ecumenical Network for Justice and Peace (ROJeP) consists of groups rooted in the Christian faith and committed to promoting justice, peace and integrity of creation.
