From Geoff Dembicki of Desmog.com:
Pierre Poilievre Voted Against Environment and Climate 400 Times, Records Show
The Conservative leader voted in favour of protecting the planet only 13 times in 20 years as an MP, a DeSmog analysis of his voting record reveals.
That includes voting “nay” to bills crafted to hold mining companies accountable for environmental damage, move Canada closer towards achieving its climate targets, create high-quality jobs in low-carbon industries nationwide and align Canadian laws with the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, an international framework also known as UNDRIP.
So, ya wanna talk about drought, wildfires, record heat... Point the finger of blame at the man who voted against climate action.

Not everyone can do everything. But everyone can do something. Because #DemocracyIsSomethingYouDo...
Write to your MP, MPP, MLA, MNA, Senator, or preferred local media outlet to tell them you expect them to dig deep into the Doug Ford corruption story as well as indicted-in-the-USA-for-trying-to-steal-an-election Mike Roman's links to Stephen Harper and Andrew Scheer. And tell them you want them to do more to house the homeless.
If you live in Alberta, get involved in canvassing for the AB NDP Leadership race. If you are in Saskatchewan or New Brunswick, why not look into working at a polling station this coming election?
With the current strain on our health care professionals, do the right neighbourly thing to keep our hospitals unclogged and be sure to get your summer COVID boosters. Also check whether you are up to do on your MMR vaccinations.
Finally, support your fellow Canadians by donating to the Red Cross Wildfire Response.
