Our friends with Rising Tide Seattle and South Sound Rising Tide arrived at a TD Bank office with a 35-foot-long mock pipeline and a funeral procession to demand they stop bankrolling the Keystone XL and tar sands extraction.

TD Bank is one of the largest shareholders in the Alberta Tar Sands, and was also protested by Rising Tide Philly earlier this year.

After the TD Bank office, they marched to the federal building to put President Obama on notice; they have pledged to resist along with over 80,000 people organized by The Other 98%,CREDO Mobile and Rainforest Action Network.
