On Dec 3, the CEU bid farewell to friends and allies as our five-year project with the David Suzuki Institute came to a close.
We reflected on lessons learned, celebrated the coalitions carrying this work forward & released resources we hope will strengthen climate advocacy for years to come.

The newly released independent CleanBC Review shows how implementing the existing CleanBC plan would improve affordability, health, and safety.“Protecting children and future generations from climate disasters can make life better and more affordable now,” said Eric Doherty, BC Climate Emergency Campaign transportation working group lead. “The Review points out that improving public transit, walking, rolling and cycling makes life more affordable, while also reducing carbon pollution.”

What we have witnessed tday in this new federal-Alberta agreement is a complete abandonment of core federal climate policy and a complete abdication to the MAGA-aligned govt of Alberta and to oil & gas corporations that send huge chunks their profits to the US.

Eye on the ball folks! It seems the pipeline piece may well be a distraction. While a pipeline remains very unlikely, the practical impact of this deal are all the immediate concessions to oil & gas industry & the federal abandonment of core climate policies.

I do not know the record — number of speakers aren’t automatically recorded in minutes, though there were a number of motions in the Stewart era that got close to 200.
But this means a vote on the preliminary budget likely won’t happen for a week or two.

Justin, any chance you know what is the record for most speakers to a motion or public hearing?
Our most recent confirmed signups against the budget are saying they have a speaker number in the 400s
