May 14 Rally for Climate, Communities and Nature at Queen's Park
This spring we have a chance to choose another path - one that prioritizes people and the planet. In the lead up to the provincial election, let’s come together and make it clear that we want a government that will take immediate action to bring down emissions, protect biodiversity, and build sustainable communities. You’ll also hear a range of inspiring speakers and performers! Family friendly accessible event.
