Climate strike week 277. People all over the world are now protesting to demand climate justice from #COP28 currently taking place in Dubai.
We need the fossil fuel lobbyists out of climate negotiations, and no more empty promises!

While the 🌎 focuses on tackling the climate crisis at #COP28, in 🇨🇦 #NoClimatePlanPoilievre lies to Canadians by blaming carbon pricing for increased costs even though all the money goes back to Canadians & most families-esp those struggling-are better off. Here's @karinagould:

[Caroline Brouillette @carobrouillette]

I had promised Minister @s_guilbeault an #EmissionsCap 🧢 if he delivered a policy framework at #COP28. I'm a woman of my word.

Now we need his word to drastically accelerate implementation. Every day 🇨🇦's oil & gas industry is left off the hook is a day too many. #cdnpoli

[Peter Luk @PeterLuk15]

The Prime Minister is clear, "We're not axing the tax."
If Pollevre is so brilliant, then how come the carbon tax is still in place? His bullying must stop.

How come Poilievre doesn't have the courage of his so-called convictions? How come he doesn't show up to vote? No courage, no integrity! His moral bankruptcy is clear...

Liberals, NDP criticize Poilievre's absence during late-night House sitting https://t.co/65grmsBu15

Poilievre has no shame and no conscience! He is threatening to ruin Christmas and the holidays for Canadians just for his ideological posturing and games.

PM pans Poilievre for 'pulling stunts' by threatening to delay MPs' holidays with House tactics https://t.co/rhnEwl8y6D

[Peter Luk @PeterLuk15]

Shame on Polievre and company! Nothing but harassment and intimidation from bullies! obstructing for the sake of obstructing. This game must stop.

What we build today will be what we use tomorrow. It will take courage, but we must make the right choice and commit to phasing out fossil fuels. Lives depend on it. #cop28 @fossiltreaty

[Peter Luk @PeterLuk15]

while this is a step in the right direction and gets us further along our pathway to reducing emissions by 2030, it must not be watered down or weakened.

Canada’s oil and gas emissions cap is here. How does it work? - National | https://t.co/JwDT5YdRdC https://t.co/SuQrXRMcbw

[Peter Luk @PeterLuk15]

The draft regulations for the just released framework for an emissions cap on the oil and gas sector must be finalized by no later than Feb, 2024! No more delay, excuses, or weasel words! Implement the regs before 2026 and don't let it be watered down by fossil fuel lobby

Update on draft #COP28 text from the end of week 1 at Dubai climate talks: Not enough agreement on the draft I describe ⬇️ to move it forward to Ministers. The 106 countries that came here looking for a historic outcome on fossil fuels will have to work hard together in wk 2!

[Catherine Abreu @catabreu_]

With the emissions cap framework, Canada is finally taking a step towards requiring the oil&gas sector to pull its weight. Canada can’t deliver on its climate commitments as long as its largest source of emissions is left out of climate policies. #cdnpoli

[CAN-Rac Canada @CANRacCanada]

📢📢 Today, after decades of rising pollution from the oil & gas sector, @s_guilbeault has released Canada's #EmissionsCap framework.

It's a victory for civil society & all Canadians – and must be implemented faster.

The Canadian Net-Zero Emissions Accountability Act (formerly Bill C-12) is an essential piece of our climate legislation. Section 14.(1.1) of the act requires the Environment Minister to prepare interim progress reports, including in 2023. It's now out:

We tend to think of ancestors as only being in the past. But let's remember that all of us alive right now are the ancestors of future generations.
The question we must ask ourselves is: are we acting with the responsibility that we want as ancestors of the future?

[Peter Luk @PeterLuk15]

Finally, the feds are going to regulate oil and gas emissions strictly and impose an absolute emissions cap. the oil and gas sector will be forced to do fair share.

@vanessa_vash Amen! God will protect the common good and we must act to protect creation!

[Peter Luk @PeterLuk15]

For the first time we have an emissions cap for th oil and gas sector! Guilbeault can wear an 'emissions cap' now! Thank you, feds, for keeping their promise! the draft regulations must be published soon and finalized quickly!
