[All] GREN - Carbon Tax Works - Countering Doug Ford's Gas Pump Stickers

Wed Aug 28 11:58:05 EDT 2019

Good Day GREN folks,

Today a non-partisan collective of grassroots community activists from across Ontario are launching the website www.carbontaxworks.ca <http://www.carbontaxworks.ca/> to combat the “gas-pumpaganda” of the Doug Ford provincial government and begin a public information campaign about the effectiveness as well as need for a carbon tax to combat climate change.

I am hoping that you will help to spread the message across the Grand River watershed and ensure that locally we are doing our part to try to set the record straight about the carbon tax - particularly since the government stickers only states the costs of the carbon tax - but says nothing about the benefits.

Attached below please find a press release, social media shareables, a carbon tax FAQ, and samples of some of the stickers that you can download from the www.carbontaxworks.ca <http://www.carbontaxworks.ca/> website for making your own stickers, t-shirts, hats, mugs or flyers.

I have already distributed 500+ large stickers (6” x 9”) in our community and still have hundreds more that I can get to you if you are interested in some.  We aren’t advocating for people to deface gas pumps but are hoping that these stickers will help to raise awareness, overcome government misinformation, and set the record straight while starting a conversation in our community.  So please feel free to place the stickers and other materials on your car bumper, on a bulletin board at your local community center, on your kid's school notebook, on a tree, or wherever you feel may be the most effective.

In addition to today’s launch, we are hoping for a large province-wide push on September 6th and 7th.  Please share this information starting today on Facebook, Twitter, your organization’s newsletters/website, with your friends, your family and help to speak up to counter seeing your tax dollars being used to mislead people and stop efforts against climate change.

Cheers,
Kevin.
