Will the next federal government really treat climate emissions like the crisis it is? #cdnpoli #bcpoli

[Ian G. Theaker @igtheaker]

Why does the mainstream media fumble the climate story so often? #bcpoli #cdnpoli

Time to step up and cover climate change the way it should be -- it's a climate emergency, got it?@CTVNews @globalnews @globeandmail @TorontoStar @RadioCanada @CdnPressNews @Reuters @theprovince @VancouverSun @financialpost @nationalpost @CBCTheNational @CBCNews

@Tzeporah 's Guardian powerful, eloquent op-ed indicts political climate blindness, inertia & hypocrisy driven by fossil fuel and finance corporations that profit by delaying a just, rapid transition. #cdnpoli , #bcpoli , #ClimateCrisis , #ClimateAction @CanadianPM

[Tzeporah Berman @Tzeporah]

Canada is facing extreme weather. And Trudeau’s love of fossil fuel will only make it worse. #cdnpoli #heatdome #wildfires #ClimateEmergency https://t.co/ZCC2gLiTu9

Hansard now documents the Commons 3rd reading debate on C-12. Parlvu offers video of the debate for those who like talking heads. < https://t.co/EguoNbwMhr > < https://t.co/xB6ATrC062 >

SHAME! Now our militarized RCMP are treating Rainforest Flying Squad camps like enemy territory. How much does this cost? How much is Teal Jones profiting? H#bcpoli #cdnpoli #FairyCreek

[Lindsay Brown @Lidsville]

Has everyone heard what's going on at @SaveFairyCreek & nearby blockades?Quotes from late last night: "This day has been far too much packed into 22 hours....the protection camps around Fairy Creek & Eden Grove are under major heavy-handed govt/industry pressure & attack" #bcpoli

Is Canada really a climate laggard...? You'll never know from the Liberal's proposed Bill C-12. #cdnpoli #ClimateAction @climatemssngrs

[Ian G. Theaker @igtheaker]

Making sausages looks a LOT better than making #BillC12 climate accountability law.... #cdnpoli #ClimateAction

[Climate Messengers Canada @climatemssngrs]

A brilliant summary of how the possibility of making #BillC12 a strong climate accountability act was destroyed by the people Canadians count on to make sure we reach our climate targets. @Reuters @acoyne @ottawacarl @CBCNews @CanadianPress @cbcwhatonearth @CTVNews @RosieBarton

[Ian G. Theaker @igtheaker]

Shame!!! Justin's & Wilkinson's idea of climate democracy in action.... #cdnpoli #ClimateAction

[Climate Messengers Canada @climatemssngrs]

This is an outrage! 65 of the 73 #BillC12 briefs were given to the ENVI Committee FOUR DAYS AFTER the deadline for committee members to propose amendments. It’s very unlikely the committee read them until AFTER they started amending the bill! Learn more in this short video.

Thank you, @eddie_petryshen ! *Excellent* research thread on old growth logging in BCs interior. Fairy Creek is just the start of this summer of discontent - big trees, whole forests forever! #bcpoli #cdnpoli #FairyCreek

[Eddie Petryshen @eddie_petryshen]

Ok so a lot of attention has been given to old growth on the coast recently. But old growth is a provincial wide issue and action on old growth requires immediate deferrals across the province. So let's dive deep and talk about old growth here in the interior.

[Ian G. Theaker @igtheaker]

Thank you, @TorranceCoste! We need more honest eyewitness testimony from the front lines. Big trees, whole forests forever! #bcpoli #cdnpoli

This Google Earth timelapse from 1984 to 2020 shows why Fairy Creek forests need to be protected NOW. Adjacent valleys now look like they have measles. < https://t.co/Kdg36arTPH >

What part of "ZERO EMISSIONS" do federal Liberals not understand....?

[Ian G. Theaker @igtheaker]

Canada's missed all of its GHG emissions targets. We need an improved Bill C-12 to change this - and an independent advisory body of climate experts is just the start. Please pressure the Commons Environment Committee, @ArtBergman, @rickmercer. #BillC12 #cdnpoli #ClimateAction

[Climate Messengers Canada @climatemssngrs]

The group responsible for making sure Canada has a strong plan to reach our climate targets is made up of experts, right? Wrong! This is yet another weakness in Bill C-12 that must be changed.

Climate accountability should be lead by independent climate experts, NOT stakeholders -Bill C-12 MUST be improved! #BillC12 #cdnpoli #ClimateAction @redmayne_robert, @S_HastingsSimon, @amckague, please RT widely.

Is Bill C-12 designed to AVOID climate accountability? The UKs 2008 Climate Change Act shows how Canada could do better. @chronicleherald @mariekewalsh @AnjaKaradeglija #BillC12 #ClimateAction #cdnpoli

Where’s the accountability in Canada’s proposed climate accountability act? Check out this short video.
