After months of organizing, young climate activists succeeded in getting the Youth Climate Corps added to the 2024 federal budget!
Unfortunately, the budget only mentions consultations on a Youth Climate Corps, rather than a real commitment to fund it. We must keep up the pressure to show the government that we will not wait. The time to invest is NOW.
Take action now for a YCC by urging your Member of Parliament to add their name to MP Laurel Collins’ letter in support of a Youth Climate Corps that will be sent to PM Trudeau on May 22.
About the letter:
In December 2023, MP Laurel Collins brought a motion for a Youth Climate Corps to the House of Commons. Now we’re collecting signatures from Members of Parliament for the motion to continue building momentum. This letter will be sent to PM Trudeau on May 22, 2024.
