People's Climate Assembly: Jobs, Justice, Climate Action!

Location

Prime Minister Trudeau will meet with provincial leaders and first ministers in the Vancouver Convention Centre on March 3rd to develop a National Climate Strategy. 



Trudeau urged us to "take an active part in" ensuring the success of the Paris Climate Agreement. And we will, by gathering outside and speaking out for a bold Climate Strategy that creates more good jobs, protects the air, land and water, and tackles the climate crisis head on. By keeping fossil fuels in the ground and rapidly shifting to renewable energy, we can create an economy that is fairer and generates hundreds of thousands of good jobs. 



We need a Climate Strategy that honours Indigenous Peoples’ rights and recognizes their leadership in protecting the land, water and climate. We need a Climate Strategy that re-allocates public resources from polluting freeway expansions to public transit powered by renewable electricity. We need a Climate Strategy formed by listening to the ideas of ordinary people.



Do your part! Bring your ideas! Bring a sign saying what your Climate Strategy includes!
