Monture was a trailblazer, a war hero and a nurse that held the fabric of her community together. Her legacy is one that others should model themselves after.

The Liberals have used their newly acquired majority to push through major changes to Canada’s laws at the last minute and shut down debate on legislation with major implications for the lives of all Canadians. This is not normal. This is what happens when a government thinks it can act with impunity.

SHAME on @MarkJCarney & Marjorie Michel for jeopardizing the health of Canadians by overturning longstanding pesticide laws! The pic of Michel at the Ag Corporate Lobby org is telling. $$ not science. Thanks @CAPE_ACME @ElizabethMay and @SenRosaGalvez cbc.ca/news/politics/…

@DorisGrinspun It's good to see a past president's son using his privileged platform for good.

@DorisGrinspun @MarkJCarney @LhamoDolkar2023 @SueLeBeau1 @iPoliticsCA @CdnPressNews @DavidSuzukiFDN @ElizabethMay @avilewis @CdnPressPoli @GCHAlliance @Tzeporah The extent to which he has overturned environmental policy has amounted to be a betrayal. Fine, one policy may no longer be popular, then replace with something better, don't just eliminate all the environmental protections. The fact he wrote a book titled "Values" is ironic.

The USA 🇺🇸 under president Donald Trump, is an overall disaster 😑 On the area of #EnvironmentalStewardship Canada 🇨🇦 under @MarkJCarney who many of us thought was an environmentalist has instead shown his clear preferences through horrendous policy decisions 🤔 Our Prime Minister has abandoned the dream of many: #CleanEnergy and an end to #fossilfuels #cdnmedia #cdnpoli

While the Trump administration spends nearly $2 billion of your tax dollars paying foreign companies to abandon American offshore wind projects, China is quietly running away with the future of energy. Last year alone, China installed three times as much wind power capacity as

Particularly when so many healthcare workers have been killed and the ICC has a war crimes arrest warrant for the the leader of that government.

@KarimaVelji @RNAO @DorisGrinspun @RNFOO @LhamoDolkar2023 @SueLeBeau1 @TorontoStar @CityNewsTO @CBCToronto @Thetrilliumca @theqpobserver @CP24 @JenniferYoon I agree. And getting Planetary Health into the ELC curricula is one step! I have seen shelter pts decompensate during heat waves. Healthy, athletic kids with asthma have died on smoky days. Northern hospitals evacuated due to wild fires. New nurses need to be equipped.

@avilewis Modelling a sovereign wealth fund based on Norway's model could be very beneficial to Canada. Privatization is a very different matter. In Canada, it only makes the service worse and more expensive. It only enriches the rich investors.

RNAO CEO Dr. Doris Grinspun says that most Canadians understand how some unhealthy behaviours are connected to their health — but many still don’t see the link between fossil fuel use, climate change, and health impacts. “When more pipelines get built, or we will not put an end to fossil fuels, we don’t say what the consequences will be, in human life, in disease, in death and in debt. We are already paying for it.” Read the full story on @thenarwhalca: thenarwhal.ca/climate-change…

This is an excellent article that clearly indicates the reasons Climate Action is desperately needed and it uses the planetary health lens.

This @_yourthunderbay story highlights how health professionals, policy experts, and Indigenous and youth climate advocates are demanding a #ClimatePlan to protect public health and secure Ontario’s economic future. #OnPoli RNAO CEO Dr. @DorisGrinspun reminds us how #ClimateChange is placing added strain on the health‑care sector. “Nurses see seniors arriving with heat strokes from an overheated apartment, in Indigenous communities displaced by wildfires or flooding, many of whom will work directly on other evidence-based practices, in increasing respiratory and cardiovascular emergency visits, asthma attacks, and other acute symptoms caused by wildfire smoke and elevated fine particulate matter."

RNAO CEO Dr. @DorisGrinspun is joining physicians, environmental leaders, Indigenous and youth climate advocates to underscore the critical role a climate plan plays in protecting people’s health and supporting a healthier, more resilient Ontario. “We are already seeing the health impacts of climate change – these are not abstract incidents. Ontario has the capacity and the responsibility to act. Nurses are directly calling on Premier @fordnation to urgently reinstate a #ClimatePlan that puts the health of Ontarians first.” #EarthDay #EarthWeek

The "environment", "climate change" & " planetary boundaries" are politically inconvenient words, but are not going away and are only worsening. @MarkJCarney ignoring them is an economic liability. timescolonist.com/opinion/trevor…

Tomorrow, April 22, on #EarthDay, health and climate leaders — including RNAO CEO Dr. @DorisGrinspun — will gather at Queen’s Park to call on the provincial government to reinstate a #ClimatePlan for Ontario. Nurses, physicians, Indigenous and youth climate advocates and others will gather to discuss how climate action can protect public health, advance clean energy, and support healthy communities across the province.

In this @TheHillTimes op-ed, RNAO CEO Dr. @DorisGrinspun urges the federal government to be at the table for an international conference aimed at a just transition away from fossil fuels.

This is why more pipelines should not be built. When spills do happen, it is in the magnitude of hundreds of thousands or millions of liters. The Alberta Energy regulator green lights the industry and historically underreports any damages ctvnews.ca/edmonton/artic… @DorisGrinspun
