Exactly what just happened in Toronto. Retired, Unemployed, Unemployable, and useful idiots are the only people who go to these town hall sessions.

A note from our publisher @tobyheaps from our fall magazine: Slow and steady will not win the climate race. "The name of the game on #climateaction is speed. We need to go faster and we can," writes Heaps. corporateknights.com/issues/…
