Don Davies rising in the house of commons to share the #elbowsupforclimate message. It's time to invest in resilience. 🙌
Yesterday I met with the Elbows Up for Climate Coalition—a group of mayors warning about the rising costs of climate inaction. From wildfires to food prices, communities are struggling. It’s time to invest in resilience and put young Canadians to work building a sustainable future.
