Friends,

As Canada embarks on the longest election period in its history, something inspiring has been happening across the country. Over the last few weeks, dozens of people like you have taken action to bring climate change onto the campaign trail by demanding that federal leaders make a strong commitment to tackling climate change and freezing tar sands expansion.

Climate organizers have staged bold and creative demonstrations at campaign events across Canada. Thanks to these confrontations, both Justin Trudeau and Thomas Mulcair have promised an overhaul of Canada’s review process for pipelines. They’ve both committed to introducing a new process that includes climate change in the reviews of tar sands pipelines in Canada -- such as the Energy East Project.

The pressure is mounting, and we need your help to spread the word as as people across the... country continue to unleash new waves of action. Learn more about the 10 actions that have made climate impossible to ignore on the campaign trail. And then help us share this news on social media:
