Hi Toronto ONEIG members,
Join us and the David Suzuki Foundations in supporting Reimagining Yonge so we can tackle the climate emergency and save lives.
Toronto City councillors will soon debate Reimagining Yonge, a proposal to change north Yonge from a congested and unsafe highway to a thriving main street that supports walking and cycling.
It’s a great idea but not everyone at city hall likes it. That’s why we need your help!

Hello ONEIG members!

This is a fantastic opportunity to come together to celebrate ONEIG's incredible work over the past year and to plan for the year to come.
This is a chance to get to know your ONEIG executive and also to welcome its newest executive members.
Access to safe water and sanitation for all is essential to life and a matter of environmental and social justice. Unfortunately, there are over 100 drinking water advisories in First Nations across Canada and no national strategy to address urgent water issues.
The COVID-19 pandemic compounds harms of historically marginalized communities. Our collective recovery must build stronger, healthier communities, including healthy environmental public policy that challenges structural inequities, including environmental racism.
We need our governments to take immediate, future-minded action now to ensure the foundational conditions for human health and wellbeing are sustained for generations to come.
