really happy to see nearly 200 signatures on the petition to the Government of Canada to restore the services cut from Environment and Climate Change Canada.
Science, research, and emergency preparedness should not be at the whim of political winds.

Hey Canadians. If you’re experiencing troublesome weather this Canada Day, you should sign this petition, and if you have already signed, thank you, please share it!
Petition to the Government of Canada
Whereas:
Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) plays a critical role in protecting Canadians through weather forecasting, severe weather warnings, climate monitoring and scientific research;
Canada is experiencing increasingly frequent and severe weather and climate related events, including wildfires, floods, atmospheric rivers, hurricanes, heat waves, winter storms and derechos;
Weather radar research, observation stations, Weatheradio services and frontline meteorological staff are essential public safety tools, particularly for rural, remote and Indigenous communities;
Recent and proposed reductions to ECCC staffing, research capacity, and public weather services risk weakening Canada’s ability to predict, monitor, and respond to dangerous weather events;
Reliable weather forecasting and climate science are vital to emergency preparedness, transportation safety, agriculture, marine operations and public confidence; and
Canadians deserve a strong, modern and fully supported public weather service.
We, the undersigned, citizens and residents of Canada, call upon the Government of Canada to
1. Reverse cuts to Environment and Climate Change Canada that impact weather forecasting, meteorological research and climate science;
2. Restore and maintain Weatheradio and other accessible public alert systems;
3. Protect and expand weather observation and climate monitoring stations across Canada;
4. Ensure adequate staffing and long-term funding for ECCC programs, scientists, meteorologists and technical experts; and
5. Recognize weather forecasting and climate monitoring as essential public safety infrastructure.

The summer is heating up! #Edmonton and #Montreal are flooded by historic rains, Lytton BC is under threat again by wildfire, and Vancouver Island is in a historic drought.
Does Environment Canada have the ability to warn us and track the changes in our climate? The government is cutting ECCC services and capabilities at a time that we need it more than ever.
Here's our petition to tell them to restore Environment Canada!
#e7465! We're hoping for many more before the summer ends so Government can't ignore this issue.
Here’s what we, citizens and residents of Canada, are asking from the #Carney Government:
1. Reverse cuts to Environment and Climate Change Canada that impact weather forecasting, meteorological research and climate science;
2. Restore and maintain Weatheradio and other accessible public alert systems;
3. Protect and expand weather observation and climate monitoring stations across Canada;
4. Ensure adequate staffing and long-term funding for ECCC programs, scientists, meteorologists and technical experts; and
5. Recognize weather forecasting and climate monitoring as essential public safety infrastructure.
The petition ends August 26th in time for the new session in the fall. We have the summer to get it done!
