Background
There is an important call to action within Canada for a new economy, one which “Creates good jobs for all, protects the air, land and water, and tackles climate change”, and this July Toronto will host the Pan American Climate Summit and an Economic summit, where politicians will face a choice between listening to corporate leaders trying to advance an economic agenda, or to the people.

The Story of the March
It starts with justice, creates good work, clean jobs and healthy communities, recognizes that we have solutions and shows we know who is responsible for causing the climate crisis.
The Organizers
Sierra Club has teamed up with the primarily organizer, 350.org, one of Sierra Club’s bigest allies in the states, to raise awareness and participation in the march. Sierra US partnered with 350.org last year to deliver the big People’s Climate March in NYC last year, and we hope this year’s demonstration goes just as well! Check out the events promo video here.
