As premiers meet with Prime MInister Trudeau to discuss climate change, Cameron Fenton, Canada Communications and Strategy Manager with 350.org issued this statement:
“I sincerely wish I could be cheering on the premiers and Prime Minister today in Ottawa, but as long as this government is a cheerleader for fossil fuel expansion, Canada will on the wrong side of climate history. Canada’s climate plan doesn’t get us to our Paris commitments, and when you add in projects like Kinder Morgan, we’re missing by miles. For Canada, 2016 is a year of broken climate promises, but make no mistake, 2017 is the year that people will do what it takes to make real, bold climate action possible.”
