Greta’s message to Canadians ahead of Monday’s vote

  Hi Friend, In Edmonton, Treaty 6 territory, the heart of Canada’s oil country, thousands rallied with Greta Thunberg today to demand climate action. “We are doing this because we will not be bystanders. We are doing this because we want the people in power to unite behind the science.” - Gr…

Down to the wire

  Dear Friend, I am optimistic. On Monday, Canadians will be able to vote for what we want.  Every single citizen has power. Between now and then – please talk to everyone.  Ask the server in the coffee shop, the barber – or hair dresser – the bus driver – the taxi driver – “Do you usually vote…

FWD: Don’t read this if you’re in a good mood

  Hi Friend, John wrote you yesterday about the negative campaign that Jagmeet Singh’s NDP team is running against us. We never thought they’d stoop this low. But with your help, we’re starting to expose their deception. CTV Truth Tracker called the NDP “wildly misleading” in last night’s newsc…

Oil lobbyists are voting. Are you?

  Hi Friend, These people are voting:  Oil executives  Billionaires  Corporate lobbyists  Are you?  Good. Because in the last election, Justin Trudeau won with just a fraction of the popular vote while almost 40 percent of Canadians stayed home. And I’ll bet anything that the oil executives, …

It’s 2019. Where are the women?

  Hi Friend, Tonight our fearless leader Elizabeth May is in round two: the French Leaders’ Debate. Did you see how she schooled the other leaders last time? Elizabeth isn’t like the other leaders on that debate stage. For one, she’s the only woman and the most experienced leader (not small dif…

You bought a pipeline

Elizabeth’s not invited

  Hi Friend, We’re polling in second place in Quebec.  We’re outpacing and outraising the NDP. And yet, Jagmeet Singh was invited to tonight’s debate, and Elizabeth May wasn’t.  It’s undemocratic. The people of Quebec and the millions of French Canadians tuning in to the TVA debate won’t hear a…

As a mom, this breaks my heart

Trudeau goes green?

E-trains, e-planes and e-automobiles
