We’re also marking 10 years of cross-partisan environmental leadership. For a decade, GreenPAC has worked to ensure that Canada has leaders across all parties who understand the urgency of climate change and are equipped to act.

From supporting strong environmental candidates, to hosting conversations that bring parties together on climate, to launching two internship programs that have helped over 50 young people gain hands-on political experience, our work helps make environmental leadership a political norm, not a partisan exception.

As we launch our year-end campaign, your Giving Tuesday contribution helps strengthen this work at a time when Canada needs it most.

Help us reach our goal of raising $7,500!

🌿🇨🇦 With Canada’s new government focused on economy, sovereignty, and workers, where does climate action fit into the federal agenda? At GreenPAC’s “The Climate Agenda Ahead: Policy, Politics, and Public Support,” our expert panelists took stock of the election promises, key climate commitments, and the challenges ahead.

They also explored how government, media, and advocacy groups can rebuild public support for climate policies, learning from past communication challenges to create stronger coalitions for lasting climate leadership.

HUGE thanks to our panelists: Alex Cool-Fergus, Andrew Heffernan, and Ross Linden-Fraser for a great conversation.
