Canada's 2025 budget:

✅ invests in housing and infrastructure and promises to strengthen some climate regulations

😡 creates new LNG subsidies and doubles down on oil-and-gas handouts

🤡 completely ghosts nature funding.

Not the clear vision an "investment budget" demands.

❌No #JustTransition measures

At a recent Citizens' Climate Lobby conference in Ottawa, I got a chance to chat with Catherine McKenna and buy two copies of her book - "Running Like A Girl", one for each of my granddaughters. Her message - "Keep on Running".

The UN 🇺🇳 released its official NDC Synthesis Report, offering both hope and a stark warning.

According to the report, current pledges collectively reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 17%. However, this is a fraction of the 60% reduction required to limit warming to 1.5°C.⁠
