A Green New Deal for All – Edmonton

June 19, 2019 @ 6:30 pm - 9:00 pm

The Leap and Friends are hitting the road to build a wave of popular support behind the Green New Deal in Canada

Join us at the Edmonton tour stop of A Green New Deal for All! Doors open at 6:30pm. Event starts at 7:00pm.

Speakers and performers include Emily Riddle, Stephen Buhler with The Leap’s Avi Lewis and Batul Gulamhusein.

We’ll hear about:
How the climate crisis is affecting our communities
Who’s responsible for the mess we’re in, and
How the Green New Deal can build a better life for all

The evening will close with a ‘barnstorm’ led by 350.org.

We’re going to fall in love with what’s possible. And we’re going to lay out our plan to win — together.You’re not going to want to miss this.
