Here's how the current Harper gov't. has let us down:

* Indicating to the world that Canada would not attempt to meet its greenhouse gas reduction targets under the Kyoto Protocol (Nov 2006);
* Killing the Clean Air and Climate Change Act, despite its complete support from the opposition parties, leaving Canada without emission reduction policies after a full year in office (fall 2007);
* Undermining attempts at agreement on binding emission reduction targets at the Commonwealth Summit in Uganda and the UN Climate Conference in Indonesia (Nov-Dec 2007);
* Announcing a climate change plan with "aspirational" emission reduction targets -- which will allow Canada’s greenhouse gas emissions to continue to rise (Mar 2008).
* Refusing to publicize important Health Canada reports on the imacts of climate change -- reports produced by our own government, with our tax dollars. The authors have criticised the government's year long delay of the report's release, and the cancellation of a planned national tour to promote its findings. Read the report: Français English.

Don't just take our word for it: the Sierra Club of Canada recently gave the Conservative government an F+ in its Climate Change Report Card.
