Tonight at #COP27 Canada had the chance to align w/ Colombia, Tuvalu, Norway, EU, Denmark, France & the UK and call for the necessary phase out of all fossils
Canada's silence puts them on the same level as those blocking - inc. Saudi Arabia, Iran and Russia

@TorranceCoste Can't believe @jjhorgan said this leaving office "How arrogant do you have to be to think that the five million of us are going to solve a problem [#climatechange] that's affecting eight billion people?" Missed opportunity to acknowledge that we are not on the right path #bcpoli
Important day to reflect on and be honest about John Horgan's environmental legacy.
On the climate and biodiversity crises, leaders shouldn't be judged against past ones, but on whether they do what's needed, and on that, Horgan hasn't delivered.

It's an honour to serve the community & be able to continue to bring health,equity and climate justice to decision making. I look forward to working with the new council, staff& community members on finding solutions to the complex issues we face, from housing to reconciliation.

Canada’s financial industry is fueling the climate crisis by continuing to pump $ Billions into the fossil fuel industry. While they claim to be aligned with the goals of the Paris Agreement, in truth greenwashing is rampant. 1/7🧵
Listening to Chief Woos from #Wetsuweten is asking "everyday citizens" to ask the politicians "What the hell is going on here?" I ask you @jjhorgan. I ask you @Dave_Eby. What the hell is going on with this drilling under the pristine river? #protectsalmon#protectwater
Elizabeth Cull, the BC NDP Chief Electoral Officer, is literally a registered lobbyist for LNG Canada with Hill & Knowlton Strategies: https://t.co/Z8Vq3UZ0Te
Before the media released her report, this Hill & Knowlton lobbyist was tweeting out the report's details.

BC Green leader @SoniaFurstenau names former NDP loyalists who are now oil and gas lobbyists as evidence the party establishment was never going to let climate activist @AnjaliApp run for the leadership.
Only the NDP would try to argue that new, ideologically motivated young people joining their party to vote in a leadership race is bad actually and grounds for disqualification
