As summer temperatures in Ontario are expected to soar above average, the Ontario Greens are demanding a comprehensive extreme heat preparedness plan from the government. Party leader Mike Schreiner emphasized the urgency of protecting vulnerable communities who are most at risk from the heat. The proposed plan includes measures to ensure access to cooling in homes and public spaces, enhance worker protections, and improve clean energy solutions. Without immediate action, the Greens warn that the health risks posed by climate change will only escalate.
