ABOUT THE 2024 CLIMATE MARCH – Exposing the Climate Culprits
For too long, the oil and gas industry has blamed ordinary Canadians for the causes and effects of climate change. We’ve been told to recycle, carpool, and reduce our carbon footprint – all while they lie and rake in record profits.
Individual action certainly has its place, but it has become absolutely clear: preventing the worst of climate change will require systemic change.
So it’s time to take aim at the root of the problem, the institutions and industries that produce the most emissions and try to prevent meaningful change: Canada’s climate change culprits!
Who are Canada’s Climate Culprits?
These culprits invest in and enable the fossil fuel industry, drag their feet on meaningful change, and try to block a just transition to clean energy.
They drive up the cost of living for ordinary people, cause wildfires across Canada, and worsen extreme weather right here in Ottawa-Gatineau. They put profit over people. Every. Single. Day.
Our 2024 Canadian Climate Culprits are:
❌ The City of Ottawa
❌ Export Development Canada (EDC)
❌ The Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers (CAPP)
❌ The Province of Ontario
❌ Canadian Gas Association
❌ The Royal Bank of Canada (RBC)
❌ The Conservative Party of Canada
