Stand Against the NDP's Betrayal of Canada's Climate Objectives

    Dear Friend, In case you missed it, our country faced a pivotal moment this week when the New Democratic Party (NDP) chose to side with the Conservatives in voting for a motion that could severely undermine Canada's climate objectives. This decision, a betrayal of the values a…

Weather the Storms Together

    Dear Friend, Nobody saw it coming. Yet we must prepare for more. In less than 24 hours, a tropical storm approaching the coast unexpectedly transformed into a devastating category 5 hurricane. Storm Otis, fueled by record-warm coastal waters, ravaged the Mexican city of Acapul…

Friend, Now is the Time for Green Leadership

  Dear Friend, You may be worried this summer, as some of the world swelters in unprecedented heat and other parts deal with unprecedented flooding. Will leaders ever listen? I wanted to take some time to write and tell you why I think they must listen, and what we can do about it. Recently, an…
