Woo hoo

See you in court, Prime Minister Carney.

As Canada braces for another summer of dangerous heat, wildfires and storms, three young Canadians, alongside health and environmental organizations, are taking the federal government to court, arguing that Prime Minister Carney’s government no longer has a credible plan to meet its legally binding 2030 climate target.

The case, launched by Ecojustice on behalf of Sophia Mathur, Marie Maltais, Shirley Barnea, Canadian Association of Physicians for the Environment (CAPE), and Environmental Defence Canada, alleges that the federal government’s gutting of key measures in the federal climate plan have created legal violations of the Canadian Net-Zero Emissions Accountability Act (CNZEAA).

The applicants are asking the court to order the federal government to revise its 2030 climate plan so that it meets its legal obligation to chart a credible, up to date course of action capable of achieving Canada’s 2030 emissions target, to protect Canadians from the worsening impacts of climate change. The government would be free to choose the measures it intends to take to achieve the target but the public would have a right to weigh in.

Yes, we project that 2026 will be the warmest year. If others will provide the physical basis for their projections, we have an opportunity to learn something from this natural “experiment.”

Running under the parachutes brings such joy! Please take a moment to think what is like for the youth present to watch a Senator and an MP playing parachute games. The joy, trust and community built through play is priceless. Laughter eases our minds and makes us open to new ideas.
