Tell Government to Improve the Emissions Cap and Make it Happen Now!

Do you think it’s fair corporations get to do less than you to lower their emissions?

Oil and gas corporations are Canada’s biggest polluters —responsible for around  30% of our national emissions (despite being only 5% of our economy). While other sectors and individual Canadians have cut emissions, these oil and gas corporations have let their emissions rise despite easy solutions being available.  A historic policy has been announced that would hold the biggest polluters to the same standards as the rest of us, standards they promised they could meet.

An emissions cap is easy for oil and gas corporations to follow, an emissions cap will NOT cost our economy, and will save thousands of Canadian lives via air pollution reductions alone. After the U.S. election, it just became more important than ever that we hold these corporations to their promises and lessen the power of corporate lobbyists who have set in motion horrific plans in the U.S. and want to do the same in Canada.

But right now these wealthy corporations are fighting to weaken and delay the emissions cap.

Send a message to the government, Prime Minister, and Environment and Natural Resources Ministers to call for the cap to be put in place now. Canadian communities are being devastated by wildfires and floods – there isn’t time to lose.
