Whereas:
Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) plays a critical role in protecting Canadians through weather forecasting, severe weather warnings, climate monitoring and scientific research;Canada is experiencing increasingly frequent and severe weather and climate related events, including wildfires, floods, atmospheric rivers, hurricanes, heat waves, winter storms and derechos;
Weather radar research, observation stations, Weatheradio services and frontline meteorological staff are essential public safety tools, particularly for rural, remote and Indigenous communities;Recent and proposed reductions to ECCC staffing, research capacity, and public weather services risk weakening Canada’s ability to predict, monitor, and respond to dangerous weather events;
Reliable weather forecasting and climate science are vital to emergency preparedness, transportation safety, agriculture, marine operations and public confidence; and
Canadians deserve a strong, modern and fully supported public weather service.
We, the undersigned, citizens and residents of Canada, call upon the Government of Canada to
1. Reverse cuts to Environment and Climate Change Canada that impact weather forecasting, meteorological research and climate science;
2. Restore and maintain Weatheradio and other accessible public alert systems;
3. Protect and expand weather observation and climate monitoring stations across Canada;
4. Ensure adequate staffing and long-term funding for ECCC programs, scientists, meteorologists and technical experts; and
5. Recognize weather forecasting and climate monitoring as essential public safety infrastructure.

"Of all the zombie ideas that have been reanimated in the wake of the global financial crisis, austerity is the most dangerous. Mark Blyth shows how austerity created the disasters of the 1930s, and contributed to the descent of the world into global war. He shows how European austerity policies have prevented any recovery from the crisis of 2009, while rescuing and protecting the banks and financial institutions that created the crisis."

Here Comes the Plague
"The CDC has experienced significant layoffs, including the permanent firing of around 600 employees in August 2025, amid a chaotic restructuring under Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr." -BBC
I doubt they have the leadership to stop this like they did in the 90s before several waves of attrition by our Nazi Party since the year 2000.

Aotearoa really has some insane rules around workers #striking. My understanding is this. Unions gave away a lot of worker power at some point in time. I blew in here so don’t know all the history. It just feels like most unions do the minimum for workers, but as a worker, your only rights are via the union. A general strike by all public service workers feels necessary right now, and yet my understanding is you can’t strike unless it is a collective action with a union. #NZPol #austerity #MassPublicServiceRedundancies

It’s another #Austerity bonus AIUI - roads policing needs specialist officers, so is expensive and easy to cut. But people who have a relaxed attitude to driving laws also tend to have relaxed attitudes to other laws so its massively counterproductive not policing these.
