The Province of Ontario is consulting with residents prior to bringing in a price on carbon. On Wednesday March 11 Provincial representatives will be in Ottawa and invite you to meet with them and give them feedback on how to fight climate change.
Please consider attending.
In particular Ecology Ottawa would like you to remind the event organizers that the Province needs to include in its plans ways that cities can participate in climate solutions.
The RA Centre is at 2451 Riverside Drive and the event runs from 6pm to 8pm
