Toronto First Nations and Climate Change

: I want to tell you that that the coalition of groups we're witnessing being assembled here in Canada is unique: organizations representing the most marginalized people in Toronto; First Nations who are our water and carbon keepers; environmentalists waging inspiring divestment campaigns; and the trade-union movement, including the country largest private-sector union representing workers at the heart of the fossil-fuel economy, according to Rabble. We understand that we have key differences, but we also understand that what unites us is greater. I've had the incredible privilege of travelling around the world and meeting with activists, labour unions, and politicians who are focusing on climate change. That why we're coming together in Toronto on July 5 for a march for jobs, justice, and climate action. It a climate movement that recognizes that time is too short to allow our divisions to keep us from building the kind of coalitions that will safeguard life on earth. What you're seeing are the first steps towards a new kind of climate movement. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
