Type of Proposal
A directive to ask the party’s Federal Council to consider an action
Objective / Benefit
The climate of the world has changed dramatically in the last few years. Everybody in Canada is aware of the extreme weather events that have become far too common. This is the opportunity the GPC has been built for and is waiting for, and we need to take full advantage of it in the next election. No other party will dare to do it.
The GPC should establish itself as only and exclusively championing solutions to this catastrophe. All policies must be cast in an environmental light. Nothing else matters.
If your proposal replaces an existing policy or policies, which one does it replace?
None and all. This directive places a very forceful emphasis on the elaboration and implementation of all our policies in the light of climate change.
