If Canada wants to fulfill its role in the fight against climate change, it must stop supporting new fossil fuel projects while partnering with petro-states.

Let's stop backtracking. Canada must show some climate ambition. #COP30

“Don’t Look Forward” would be a better title for B.C's new economic strategy, "Look West".
The strategy is supposed to chart B.C's future, but instead it clings to the past by expanding liquefied natural gas development (aka, fossil fuels 😡). Read more: www.biv.com/news/comment...

Meet the leaders driving our second Suzuki Sessions 🔋⚡️: Melina Laboucan-Massimo, Jordyn Burnouf, Stephen Thomas, and David Suzuki.
They’re bringing fresh perspectives on Indigenous climate action, community energy projects, and what a just transition means for all. us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

"What you do makes me cry at night." 💔
In light of #COP30 in Brazil, we’re revisiting Severn Cullis-Suzuki’s powerful 1992 Earth Summit speech in Rio de Janeiro. Severn was celebrated around the world for the courage she brought to the global stage. 🎥 Simone Giampaolo.

The LNG propaganda machine is working overtime — and Stand.earth just shredded its greenwashing. Their new site exposes the truth about this dirty fossil fuel and features an interactive map of the export terminals driving the crisis.

Ironically, PM Carney skipped COP30 in Brazil, to announce that the federal government will fast-track the American-owned Ksi Lisims liquefied natural gas project in British Columbia. 👎😒

DSF staff met with Waba Moko, an Anishinabe Land Guardian, to see the impacts of logging on the La Vérendrye Wildlife Reserve. Canada’s climate promises at #COP30 mean nothing unless they recognize Indigenous jurisdiction as the foundation of true environmental justice. dsfdn.org/TheForestIll...

“The Amazon has shifted from a carbon sink to a carbon emitter. If we’re not talking about that in Belém, we’re missing the point.”

Canada's 2025 budget:

✅ invests in housing and infrastructure and promises to strengthen some climate regulations

😡 creates new LNG subsidies and doubles down on oil-and-gas handouts

🤡 completely ghosts nature funding.

Not the clear vision an "investment budget" demands.

Want to know something truly haunting? Being deported for nonviolent climate activism. That's what happened to 24-year-old Zain Haq in January.

This is unjust and unacceptable.

Don’t ghost nature this season! Tell the feds Canada’s budget must protect nature – not cut it out. 👉 dsfdn.org/DontGhostNat...

Hurricane Melissa has devastated Jamaica and Cuba. This comes just days after UN head António Guterres warned us of catastrophic consequences after the world missed the 1.5C climate target.

New report reveals the truth behind LNG’s hype. The real winners are foreign multinationals, not British Columbians. Offshored profits, few jobs, higher energy costs and ignored environmental damages — that’s what doubling down on fossil gas exports promises. Read here: dsfdn.org/RunningOnFum...

Congrats to Better Bus Youth on the unveiling of their new mural in downtown Regina! A collaboration with artist Jayda Delorme, the mural celebrates prairie art and while pushing for fare-free transit 🚌

Did you know Canada's electricity grid is more interconnected with the United States than each other?
That's one of the reasons why our coalition is calling for federal leadership to green‑light the East–West electricity grid — linking renewable power across provinces and territories. 📢 #CleanEnergy

Foundation Gaptivist advocates for safe, accessible transit Kimberli Kolody-Watt is an advocate for fare-free transit and inclusivity in Regina. The city is exploring a pilot for high school students.

We’re thrilled to spotlight the work of Kimberli Kolody-Watt, one of the amazing young advocates leading Regina’s fare-free transit movement and a DSF Gaptivist: davidsuzuki.org/story/founda...

On September 30th, dressed in orange, we took to the streets of downtown Montreal to march in memory of missing children and to highlight the importance of continuing to focus on rights, dignity, and healing.🧡

The PM said additional national interest projects will be announced in the coming weeks. This has us thinking about projects that prepare Canada for the future, not set us further apart. What national projects would you like to see funded in Canada?

📣We call on the federal government to reject Alberta's absurd pipeline proposal outright.
