Our new position paper, Care for Creation, Not Extraction: Understanding Why Canada Must End Fossil Fuel Subsidies, is a practical advocacy tool for members who want to engage their MPs in calling for an end to fossil fuel expansion.
It explains how public subsidies for oil and gas contradict Canada’s climate and moral commitments, outlines the scale and mechanisms of these subsidies, and provides clear talking points and questions to guide outreach.
Grounded in integral ecology, the paper invites us to examine how public spending reflects our collective values—are we investing in the flourishing of the whole Earth community, or reinforcing systems that harm it?
