Poll: Two-thirds of Canadians favour developing clean energy over fossil fuels, while 85% wish to maintain or increase federal climate action - Clean Energy Canada
A recent survey by Abacus Data for Clean Energy Canada reveals strong Canadian support for prioritizing clean energy development over fossil fuels. Two-thirds (67%) of respondents favor investing in clean energy projects such as critical minerals, renewable power, and energy storage, compared to 33% who prefer conventional fossil fuel projects like oil, gas, and LNG.

The piece explains that the Founding Fathers designed the U.S. government as a republic with checks and balances to prevent tyranny, contrasting this with the autocratic tendencies seen in Trump’s leadership. It notes that the climate crisis is a unique challenge that spans both present and future generations, requiring consistent, long-term policies rather than erratic measures like the “TACO” (Trump Always Chickens Out) tariff approach. The article calls for strong,
