“What is encouraging is awesome local groups like Climate Action Muskoka are doing amazing work doing seminars across the region in these regards. This is how the District presentation came about..after we met online during their heat pump seminar night. Good people doing great things. They care and anyone who loves our lakes, land and beautiful country can learn much from them.”

Dear Muskoka climate advocates,

Thank you! For not giving up for in the face of such dishonest opposition. Your detailed press release was important to get out there. I am inspired by your work. Your dedication. To that grandfather who got emotional. Thank goodness your newborn grandchildren have you in their corner. I don’t know why the entire country isn’t getting emotional. 

With love and gratitude,

Muskoka EV Show

I thought the show was excellent and gave the community a chance to talk with EV owners to get a feel for the plus and minuses about switching to an EV . It was an opportunity to ask questions that are on everyone’s mind now. I think the organizers did a super job of setting it up , having good  displays & talks and advertising the show.  I would definitely like to see it happen again next year as changes and updates are occurring all the time!

Thank you for joining with the Conservancy to make this happen!  And thanks for your ongoing activism on Climate Change!

Solidarity from the GTA

Hello,

I just read the newsletter for this week and learned about a group from Climate Action Muskoka being barred from MPP Graydon Smith’s office — paid for by taxpayers, no less. It’s disgusting, it’s depressing, it’s undemocratic — unfortunately I’m not at all surprised. Across Canada and so many other countries (the UK and Australia, too) climate activists are being detained under draconian measures. I’m one of many working to repeal Bill 23 further south but wanted to write and say you have our support and solidarity.

Take care and press on!
