"Canadians are concerned and trying to do their part but we have some of the weakest laws in the industrialized world and that's why global warming pollution in Canada is projected to keep growing," said Tzeporah Berman, Executive Director of PowerUP Canada. "We're going to make sure Canadians have a place to voice their concerns and get the information they need to clarify the difference between real climate leadership and spin."

PowerUP Canada will provide Canadians with a positive new vision for Canada, provide non-partisan information about global warming and a common campaign to amplify citizens' voices, clarify federal parties' and candidates' climate positions, host public events, and build an online networking community.

PowerUP Canada also released a new national poll that clearly shows the majority of Canadians believe stronger climate laws will improve our economy.
