YOU'RE INVITED TO CELEBRATE PEOPLE-POWERED CLIMATE ACCOUNTABILITY
Join us on October 3rd for a webinar marking the launch of the National Climate League (NCL) report, a volunteer-driven survey of climate plans, targets, policies, and programs for 53 municipalities across Canada.
Over the past year, 51 volunteers dove deep into local plans, reports, dashboards, and meeting minutes to gather data assessing their municipality on 23 climate policy indicators and 5 outcome indicators. The survey included municipalities from all 10 provinces, ranging from small towns to large cities.
Thank you, André-Yanne for for five years of visionary leadership, inspiring collaboration and exciting milestones
As you may have heard, after five years as our Executive Director, André-Yanne Parent will be stepping down as of April 19, 2024. It is with mixed feelings of sadness and introspection that we say goodbye, but, more than that, our hearts are filled with gratitude for her five
years of dedication, leadership, vision and passion.
In memory of Matt Chapman
It is with heavy hearts that we inform you of the deeply sad news of Matthew Chapman’s passing.
Matt’s legacy is deeply embedded in the very DNA of Climate Reality Canada. We mourn the loss of a colleague and pillar of the organization, a visionary, and a friend. Our hearts are with Matt’s family, his wife Véro and two daughters Adeline and Flora, as well as everyone who, just like us, followed Matt into the exciting endeavours his brilliant—and at times rebellious! —mind conjured. Matt, we miss you so much already. We will continue to celebrate your legacy and try, humbly, to keep up the incredible work you started. We love you.
We invite you to celebrate Matt’s life, share your memories and support his family.

new resource: toolkit for rural and remote communities
Rural and remote communities are integral to Canada's economic, cultural, and social fabric. However, these communities face heightened susceptibility to the adverse effects of climate change, including droughts, floods, crop failures, and wildfires. This toolkit aims to support climate advocates and organizers based in rural and remote communities in empowering their friends, families, and neighbours to join together and transform themselves and their communities into climate leaders.
