Later is too late

We are seniors demanding our governments build a better Canada, free from the devastation caused by burning fossil fuels, where everyone benefits from affordable, healthy solutions to the climate crisis.

The problem

Burning fossil fuels pushes up temperatures, hurting everything we love. Extreme rains flood communities.

Unnatural heat waves cause wildfires that destroy homes, fill skies with smoke and send vulnerable Canadians to hospital with heat stroke and asthma.

Ordinary Canadians pay unfair costs: higher insurance, higher taxes to repair infrastructure, higher food costs when crops are destroyed.

The solutions

Renewable power, energy efficiency, and climate solutions create jobs, reduce costs, and build resilience.

We need strong investments in renewable energy: solar, wind and thermal. We need expanded mass transit and energy-efficient housing.

Canadians deserve the good jobs and cleaner communities that come with a fossil-free future.

  • 59%

    59% of Canadians 65 and older, about 4.8 million people, are very or extremely concerned about climate change. That’s more than any other age group.
