I chose to email my MP in order to put my feather on the scales of the conservative leadership race:

Mr. McCauley,

To the extent that you are looking for constituent feedback on the leadership race within your party let me make a single wishlist item:

The Conservative party must have a credible climate plan to win. Which means having a leader willing to put forward a credible climate plan. Erin O’Toole’s plan was a step forward, but insufficiently credible. It’s time for the conservatives to show us credibly how they drive Canada and the world to net zero.

Myself, and many of my generation simply will not vote for a party that ignores climate change. If you want to win, you need to be serious.

— Matt Gaudet

Every opportunity to remind politicians that climate matters.
