Seriously, if you’re following ANY bike-lane debate, you HAVE TO WATCH this news story. You actually can’t make this up. Ford claims without evidence that bike-lanes are bad for small business, and THE ACTUAL BUSINESS ASSOCIATION obliterates him with data. toronto.citynews.ca/video/20…

The clinic’s closure would not only leave vulnerable newcomers without essential healthcare but also increase the strain on our health care system, in particular our emergency departments and acute care services. Thank you for your support!

A single 400-year-old ancient oak produces 234,000 litres of oxygen a year while soaking up carbon dioxide, and can support more than 2,000 species of bird, insect, fungus, and lichen. Nature is amazing - we need more of it, not less. RT if you agree 🌳

The AER needs to go! #Suncors expansion into #McClelland wetland should never have been approved. Their operating plan is as leaky as the ‘wall’ they plan to build. This sensitive ecosystems & crucial carbon sink is at stake! Write to the #AER today! energi.media/opinion/opinion…

McLelland Lake Wetland | Thoughtful Journalism

In March, the AER approved Suncor’s Operational Plan for the mining of the McClelland Lake Wetland Complex.

For the sake of kids, we need to make school buses electric

With increased financial support, all new school bus purchases could be electric by 2040, or more ambitiously, 2035.

🏭🚗 Exposure to air pollution is associated with >3 million deaths annually - of which >1 million are directly related to the combustion of fossil fuels. ⚠️❤️‍🩹 Action is needed to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels to protect people's health and the planet. #CleanAirDay
Graphic shows two brightly illustrated characters walking across a real congested highway with many lanes of backed up traffic. Writing over the image reads: 'A swift transition to renewable energies could save millions of lives through cleaner air. In 2020, exposure to fossil fuel derived air pollution caused 1.2 million deaths'

Plain and simple: Fossil fuel emissions cause climate change which cause wildfires. #oilandgas sector is allowed to emit unabated in Canada. Time to cap #oilandgas emissions. Cc @JonathanWNV @cafreeland @JustinTrudeau @s_guilbeault
