Join the fast and vigil at Joe Oliver's constituency office this Friday, November 22 12:30 pm to dusk This Friday, November 22, marks the final day of COP 19. Canada's position at COP 19 has been nothing short of shameful. The Harper administration has clearly revealed its climate stance by applauding Australia's carbon tax repeal. Canada again is obstructionist; it is wrong to discourage other industrialized nations from following through on their own climate change commitments, wrong to interfere with the European Fuel Quality Directive, and wrong to dither and withhold funds from the Green Climate Fund. http://www.theguardian.com/environment/2013/nov/13/canada-climate-australia-carbon-tax Are you in Toronto? Can you join those of us who are fasting in solidarity with Yeb Saño, chief negotiator for the Philippines at COP 19, at the constituency office of Joe Oliver, Minister of Natural Resources, at 12:30 pm? 511 Lawrence Ave West (steps from Bathurst; about 5 blocks east of Lawrence West subway station) Toronto M6A 1A3 Even if you are not fasting, come stand with us.
