Registration exended today only: Earth Day 2026 Province-wide Action & Lobby Day NOW APRIL 23rd

[Lyn Adamson]

Hi everyone,

Due to flooding of our room at Queen's Park  our booking was bumped to the day after Earth Day - but still Earth Week - and to the Dining Room at Queen's Park, to meet with MPPs and other climate advocates.

We have had spots open up as not everyone could come a day later than planned, so today only we can add a few more registrants.

please complete this registration form

if you are interested in joining us Thursday morning.

We will dialogue with MPPs who attend.  and will have short presentations from these  Speakers:     

• Dr. Mili Roy
• Dr. Mark Winfield     
• Bushra Asghar          
• Chris Ballard 

Don't worry about doing all the steps of contacting your MPP before Thursday (you can try but it is last minute).  You'll be able to book an appointment at another time.

Earth Day 2026 Province-wide Action & Lobby Day Path to a Healthy & Resilient Future: Why Ontario Needs a Climate Plan

Calling All Ontarians!

This April 23 celebrate Earth Day by making it count! Join a Queens Park MPP breakfast reception and province-wide action calling on the Government of Ontario to bring back a strong, evidence and target-based provincial climate policy plan to replace Ontario’s recently cancelled climate plan. Enjoy breakfast, hear expert speakers and meet with MPPs immediately following

With co-hosts CAPE Ontario (Canadian Association of Physicians for the Environment) and OCEC (Ontario Climate Emergency Campaign), and our partner organizations, we will be calling on MPPs to support a climate plan that advances public health, energy affordability and sovereignty, Indigenous rights, and secures a liveable future for young people and future generations.

Here’s how to participate:
1) To meet with your MPP, please complete this registration form. You will have two options:
● Request to meet your own MPP at the Queens Park breakfast reception in person using this template letter (use Version 1). (Please note: if we approach capacity, attendance may be limited to constituents
who’ve secured the attendance of their own MPP at the lobby breakfast.)
● Request to meet your own MPP in your home constituency whenever available, using this template letter (use Version 2)

2) If you are unable to request an MPP meeting, invite your own MPP with this template letter (use Version 3) to attend the Earth Day lobby breakfast reception at Queen’s Park, Toronto on April 22, from 7:30 to 9:00 a.m. in Room 228. Let’s get as many MPPs attending as possible.

Never met with an elected official before? Don’t worry! Supporting materials will be available including:
1) A Backgrounder of talking points for you to discuss with your MPPs
2) MPP information materials will be sent by the organizers to all MPPs and also shared with you for your reference.

3) Virtual training session(s) on “How to lobby your MPP” will be available to registrants from 7:30-9 PM Tuesday April 14 and/or 11 AM - 12:30 PM Friday April 17 (two sessions subject to sufficient registrants both dates - see Registration form to indicate your preference). A recording will also be shared but attending the online session will be most valuable.

Let’s take action together this Earth Day to make a real difference!

Thanks

CAPE Ontario, OCEC, and partners
