On October 27, 2025, ORCIE’s Executive Director, Genevieve Gallant, joined the Canadian Religious Conference (CRC) JPIC Coffee Hour to reflect on federal budget choices through the lens of economic justice and integral ecology.

Her timely intervention, following the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty, highlighted how military spending and program cuts affect vulnerable communities, and underscored the need for a just transition plan rooted in systemic change.
