To Environment Minister Mckenna and PM Trudeau:

As concerned citizens we call on the government to legally recognize our right to a healthy environment and to adopt the Environment Committee's other recommendations aimed at improving environmental protections.

Canada: recognize our right to a healthy environment
MPs want the government to recognize our right to a healthy environment -- It could be a game changer for our health. 

Pollution is tied to serious health issues like lung problems and heart disease. Winning the right to a healthy environment will mean new clean air and water standards for all of us.  

The recommendations are coming right from the Environment Committee, but we’ve seen the government waver on these issues before. If we show Minister McKenna that Canadians are counting on her, we can help make these rights a reality.
