'By signing the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty, Ottawa will join dozens of cities around the world making the commitment to move away from fossil fuel extraction and towards a just transition,' said Ottawa Councilor Catherine McKenney.
—who support the initiative, which calls for ending all new fossil fuel exploration and production; phasing out existing production in line with the Paris agreement's 1.5°C goal; and"a peaceful and just transition."
"Having Ottawa agree to endorse the treaty and to push the Ontario government to accept this treaty," she said,"is something we can happily share with our children as a success—advocacy works, it influences systemic change and action, our children do not need to feel they are fighting this climate battle alone, adults are standing up and taking action."
