Dear Friend,
You may have heard about our upcoming “Communities, Not Corporations: Transition for People and the Planet” webinar on May 24th. We’re excited to announce another speaker at the event – Tiffany Balducci, 2nd Vice President of CUPE Ontario!
In advance of sustainable jobs legislation being tabled, Tiffany will join Anjali Appadurai and other speakers for a timely conversation about what we need to see in legislation to ensure a truly just transition for Indigenous communities and for workers and their communities.
On May 24th, 2023 at 4 p.m. PT / 5 MT / 6 CT / 7 ET / 8 AT / 8:30 NT, join the Council of Canadians, Iron & Earth, Blue Green Canada, 350 Canada, and the Climate Emergency Unit for “Communities, Not Corporations: Transition for People and the Planet.” Hosted by Anjali Appadurai, renowned activists and experts will share insights on the federal Sustainable Jobs Plan and explore how to win strong legislation that invests in Indigenous sovereignty, workers, and communities rather than false, market-based solutions that line the pockets of corporations and the ultra-wealthy.

Anjali Appadurai, Director of Campaigns, Climate Emergency Unit

Join us to learn what we can expect from upcoming transition legislation, why false solutions undercut community and worker-approved solutions, and what we need to see to ensure that our transition away from fossil fuels is based on the needs of people, not the demands of profit. We’ll also invite you to take action to ensure that our decision-makers hear our demand for strong sustainable jobs legislation.
