Thursday, May 23rd, 6:30 - 9 pm Fernwood Community Centre
1240 Gladstone Ave The Green New Deal is a bold vision for tackling climate change and inequality. That means re-organizing our economy to run on 100% renewable energy, creating millions of jobs, respecting the rights, title and sovereignty of Indigenous Peoples, plus enshrining dignity, justice, and equity for all. |

The week of May 20 there will be town halls across the country to crowdsource ideas for what a Canadian Green New Deal could actually look like. We have the opportunity to define what it means for our community here in Victoria. We can lobby for massive government investment, but we can also start changing the economy ourselves. Come and learn more and share in the discussion. |
