From Lead Now:
Alberta Premier Danielle Smith and the federal government have just outlined a deal that will pave the way for a dirty tar sands pipeline from Alberta to the BC coast — without Indigenous consent and threatening our oceans, wildlife, rivers, and forests.
If you don't want another pipeline through the BC Coast, you can add your name to the Leadnow petition.

From Climate Legacy Canada:
The Canada Pension Plan abandoned its biggest climate commitment earlier this year and continues investing billions into fossil fuels each year. Now it’s being sued by four young people who worry that if CPP Investments doesn’t take this climate risk more seriously, its benefits will be significantly diminished by the time their generation starts to retire. One way to support the case is by writing to CPP Investments leadership to demand they improve their approach to managing climate risk. You can also learn more about the case by reading their original press release, or this excellent coverage from The Energy Mix.

Trans Spaces of Safety & Belonging: Transforming Hearts Collective 3-Session Program
Pt. I: Tuesday, Dec 2: 4:00 pm
Pt. II: Thursday, Dec 4: 4:00 pm
Pt. III: Tuesday, Dec 9: 4:00 pm
Q&A: Saturday, Dec13: 10:00 am
At a time when anti-trans legislation and hostility are on the rise, how do we live into our principles and values of worth, dignity and inclusion? Many have asked, “what can we do?”
In December, we’re bringing in the Transforming Hearts Collective, a collective of Unitarian Universalist queer, transgender and nonbinary faith leaders who provide support and educational programming, to offer Canadians a free 3-part program on building safer, more welcoming spaces for trans and queer people.
We’re inviting allies, accomplices, and advocates from each congregation and community to take part. All are welcome, and we especially encourage each congregation/community/organization to send at least two ally representatives who can bring the learning back to their communities so we can flourish in this work together. In this time, we’ll learn from the program’s creators, connect across our networks, and equip our communities with the tools to act with courage and compassion.
There will be 4 sessions all together. On December 2, 4 and 9, CUC staff will host the 3-part “Responding to the Anti-Trans Movement” course. This online course has 25-35 minute videos by Alex Kapitan, accompanied by reflections and resources. CUC staff will play the video and facilitate the reflections.
On Saturday, December 13, the series will finish with a Q&A session with Transforming Hearts Collective co-creators Alex Kapitan and Teo Drake.
