As northern Canada burns, southern Canada makes climate change worse by rushing through Bill 5 in Ontario and its big brother in Ottawa Bill C-5 - both will allow no regulations, special economic zones. Both bills crafted without First Nations input. 1 theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…

Here in Toronto, the haze from forest fires hung all around the glass office towers last week, tickling the lungs of everyone who breathed in the thick air. And it is only early June. “It is relatively early in the summer and already we have multiple evacuations and others on

Bill C-5 is a dangerous omnibus Bill designed to ram through provisions that would shorten windows for environmental assessments and Indigenous land consultations for major infrastructure projects. Learn more and take action here: win.newmode.net/350org/c5

C-2 will result in mass deportation by administrative means, prevents persecuted individuals from applying asylum in Canada, putting thousands into precarious and vulnerable situations, It’s direct attack on civil liberties. Excellent summary from Guardian theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Bill C-5 is really the “Polluters First” Bill — an omnibus bill that would allow the government to sidestep environmental protections and violate Indigenous rights to ram projects through to the benefit of corporations. Email your MP now to #StopBillC5: leadnow.ca/campaigns/poll…

"Poilievre’s Conservatives are 100% behind the proposed legislation." If I had wanted Conservative policy, I'd have voted Conservative.:/ I'm so frustrated by our broken electoral system and lack of actual progressive policy. :/ #cdnpoli #BillC5 Leadnow.bsky.social

BREAKING! Banks poured a staggering $869 BILLION into fossil fuels in 2024. The new #BankingOnClimateChaos report is out. It's not good. During the hottest year on record, banks increased their financing of coal, oil and gas. Its unconscionable. Read: bankingonclimatechaos.org

The Liberals’ violation of the democratic process and undermining of constitutional obligations fast tracking Bill C-5 is so bad that even some Liberal MPs are speaking out. The Liberals and Conservatives have teamed up to hold just two hours to hear from expert witness

Bill C-5 violates the constitutional obligation to consult and accommodate Indigenous peoples, diminishes environmental oversight, and puts workers and communities at risk. I and my NDP colleagues oppose Bill C-5 in its current form. I demand that the federal government uphold

If Bill C-2 passes, RCMP and CSIS can secretly compel any service providers and their referrals including doctors, banks, landlords, even therapists - to disclose information about Canadians without a warrant or judicial oversight based only on vague "reasonable grounds". 2/

I don’t know what to say to this either than we have a premier who does not understand treaties, how they are the Canadian laws of the land, and, that Ontario actually signed Treaty 9 where the Ring of Fire is located. Making racist comments like this are beneath his office.

When a Liberal MP says his own government’s handling of a bill would “make Harper blush,” it’s time to listen. So let’s talk about Bill C-5. Because in the hurry to ram this bill through Parliament, the government is running roughshod over Indigenous and environmental concerns:

“Bill C-5 violates the democratic process, Indigenous constitutional rights, critical environmental protections, and workers’ health and safety. The fact that the Liberals are trying to rush this bill through parliament is unconscionable and unacceptable."

ICYMI: Right now, the Senate is deliberating Bill C-5—an omnibus bill that would allow the federal government to fast-track corporate projects while ignoring environmental protections, public input, and Indigenous consent. Send a message to #StopBillC5 👉 leadnow.ca/campaigns/sena…
