Keep our air clean
We don't need to wave goodbye to clean air when we reopen the economy. Sign our petition to make electric vehicles a cornerstone of Ontario's COVID-19 recovery.
Support a Green Economy Recovery
We have a choice in how we restart the economy after COVID-19: a Big Oil Bailout or a Green Economic Recovery. Let’s choose to invest in the clean jobs of tomorrow rather than the big polluters of the past.
Improve Elder Care Now
Our parents and grandparents deserve a long-term care system that shows them dignity and respect. We can no longer delay improving conditions. Sign our petition to start fixing long-term care today.
Support Local Food
From gardens to greenhouses, local food is keeping people fed during COVID-19. We're calling on the province to focus more on food that is grown, processed, and sold right here in Ontario. Sign our petition!
Reimagining our public spaces
Let’s invest in more bike lanes and sidewalks. Let’s expand city parks to help everyone’s physical and mental health. Let’s build neighbourhoods that protect green space rather than pave over it. Sign our petition to reclaim public space.
Care for our seniors
Ontario’s long-term care system has been neglected for years, leaving our elders ignored and vulnerable. Sign our petition for an overhaul of Ontario’s nursing homes.
Saving Spring Planting
The province is considering re-opening community gardens after pressure from groups and everyone who signed our petition. But they need a final push. Sign Mike’s letter before the growing season is lost.
Protect Local Businesses
We know that Amazon and Walmart will survive COVID-19. But what about the mom and pop restaurants in every downtown? Sign our petition to save the bakery, barber shop or bookstore you love.
Protect Local Food
The province made a mistake by closing down community gardens due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Sign our petition to re-open community gardens as essential services.
Emergency Relief for Renters
Tenants are worried. Small businesses are worried. Landlords are worried. We are calling on the government to implement an emergency rent fund.
Emergency Basic Income. Now.
People need immediate financial relief during the COVID-19 pandemic. No hoops to jump through. No waiting periods. Sign our petition for an emergency universal basic income.
Protect workplaces from coronavirus
Staying at home when sick is more important than ever as we face COVID-19. Doug Ford ignored health experts and repealed workplace protections like paid sick days.
Save Our Water
Companies pay pennies to take our water, while putting our groundwater supply at risk. It’s time to make the moratorium permanent. Add your name to save our water.
Save Ontario’s forests
Every year Ontario loses 40,000 football fields of forest due to clear-cut logging. Instead of conserving forests to fight climate change, Doug Ford is speeding up their destruction. Instead of conserving forest habitat to save dwindling caribou herds, Doug Ford is bulldozing it.
What are your priorities for 2020?
With so many challenges ahead of us, we need to build the Green Wave even faster. Answer this survey and tell us about your priorities for the next few years
Say no to Enbridge’s fracked gas pipeline
If approved, the Enbridge pipeline would rip through 10km of unspoiled nature and contribute to a 400% increase in gas plant emissions. Ontario should not become a corridor for fracked gas.
Stop the war on renewable energy
The nuclear price tag will increase our electricity bills - 16.5 cents/kWh from Darlington by 2025. Better deals are out there: solar, wind and Quebec's hydro power are all cheaper.
Support the Green Party Climate Plan
The Auditor General gave Doug Ford’s climate plan a failing grade and no chance of meeting our climate targets. Greens have a plan to make Ontario carbon-neutral by 2050. Sign our petition to support our plan.
Demand climate solutions, not climate sabotage
From fighting pollution pricing and cancelling clean energy contracts to cutting funding for tree planting and flood prevention, Doug Ford's actions are making the climate crisis worse at a time when we need urgent action.
Make Ontario Place a Provincial Park
Let’s create a public space we can all enjoy, while preserving biodiversity and fighting climate change. Sign our petition to make Ontario Place a provincial park!
Hold Polluters Accountable
When the Premier says he is ‘cutting red tape,’ he is actually making it cheaper and easier to poison our environment. Say no to a free pass for polluters.
Stop the firesale of Ontario’s groundwater
Is Doug Ford getting ready to put private profits ahead of the protection of our water? Tell the Environment Minister to keep the moratorium on new water bottling.
Autism doesn’t end at 18
Yet the Ford government seems to think so based on its decision to cut off funding for adults with severe autism. Their families are taking the province to court, and we’re standing with them.
Ban Fracking in Ontario
We have the most fossil-fuel friendly Premier in years, who has pledged blanket support to oil and gas pipelines and repealed our climate laws. It’s just a matter of time before the oil lobby tries to frack in Ontario. And they have an ally in this Conservative government.
Survey:
We believe a Basic Income Guarantee provides the economic security we all need to adapt to a challenging and changing world. Do you agree?
Reverse cuts to education
Ontario already has the lowest per capita spending on public services in the country. But instead of investing in high-quality education, this government is starving it out. Help us tell the Education Minister to reverse these harmful cuts to education.
Demand climate solutions, not climate sabotage
Ontarians are experiencing first hand extreme floods, storms and fires. But the Premier is more concerned with fighting climate solutions than fighting climate change. Sign today if you want climate solutions, not climate sabotage.
Protect Ontario Wolves
Under the guise of moose conservation in northern Ontario, the government wants to drastically relax hunting restrictions for wolves and coyotes. Join us in opposing these unethical and unscientific changes to wolf and coyote hunting.
Hands off the Greenbelt
90% of Ontarians have said they want the Greenbelt protected. But obviously Ford needs to hear it again. Sign our letter to say, Hands off the Greenbelt.
Reject cuts to flood prevention
Conservation authorities save us from the worst impacts of climate change by reducing the risks of flooding. So why does the Premier keep coming after them?
Don’t unplug our electric future
Ford’s anti-EV strategy is wasteful and does nothing but keep Ontario behind. Tell the Minister of Economic Development to prepare Ontario for the EV future, not sabotage it.
Put a stop to cronyism
It’s been far too easy for the Ford government to give out cushy, publicly funded jobs to family and friends. We must fix the system that allowed this scandal to happen.
Create Jobs in the Clean and Caring Economy
We can solve the climate emergency by creating jobs in the clean and caring economy. Jobs building electric vehicles; renovating our homes and buildings; installing clean energy; planting trees; and growing local food.
Support a ban on single-use plastics
This is our chance to say goodbye to the plastic straws, bags, coffee cups and take-away containers clogging up our lakes and landfills. We cannot leave this mess for future generations to clean up.
Big Developers don’t need keys to the city
Doug Ford is giving sprawl-hungry developers the power once again to bulldoze local planning decisions. We need real solutions to the housing crisis. We don’t need to give big developers the keys to the city.
Reject Ford’s Fuel Pump Farce
The Premier is threatening $10,000 fines on gas stations that refuse to put his anti-climate stickers on their pumps. These stickers don’t mention the carbon rebates. And they don’t mention the costs of Ford’s Do-Nothing climate policies. Say no to Ford’s fuel pump farce.
Lift the cap on Overdose Prevention Sites
There is an overdose crisis across Canada. But the Ford government has cut the number of overdose prevention sites from 21 to 15. The consequences will be deadly. Add your name if you want the cap lifted on overdose prevention sites so that lives can be saved in all communities.
Stand with Students
Students are standing up to defend Ontario’s public education system. Students will pay the price for Ford’s cuts to education. Add your name and stand with them.
Animal cruelty laws cannot go unenforced
As of April 1st, Ontario will not have a system for investigating and enforcing animal cruelty laws - leaving pets, livestock, and animals across Ontario vulnerable to abuse. The PC government knew this day was coming, but so far has been mum on a solution.
Tell Ford to make good on his autism promise
Doug Ford promised parents during the election they would not need to protest at Queen’s Park. Now he’s shrugging them off. Ask the Premier to keep his promise and fix the broken autism plan.
Protect our Water: Paris Galt Moraine
Mike Schreiner’s Private Member’s Bill if passed will protect the Paris Galt Moraine, which purifies clean drinking water for nearly 200,000 people in southern Ontario.
Let’s use the right tools to build affordable housing
While the Premier thinks paving over farmland is the only way out of the housing crisis, Greens know there are better solutions for putting a roof over our heads. Let’s get with the times and build the affordable homes that young people, families, and seniors need.
Big money has no place in Ontario politics
Money and influence should not be able to flow freely between those in power and those with power because vulnerable groups simply cannot afford $1600 to whisper in the Premier’s ear.
Tell the Health Minister to reverse cuts to Ontario midwives
The government ending the 25-year-long funding support for the College of Midwives of Ontario. In doing so, it has severely undercut services to, for, and by women only in this highly gendered profession.
