KAMLOOPS – Cathy McLeod, Member of Parliament for Kamloops – Thompson – Cariboo, today urged her constituents to take part in the federal government’s online climate change consultation.

• Clean technology, innovation and job creation;
• How to prepare for the impacts of a changing climate;
• Putting a price on carbon.

“As a Conservative, I’m committed to preserving and protecting Canada’s environment for future generations,” MP McLeod said. “At the same time, we will work to keep taxes low for Canadian individuals, families and job-creators, and to sustain economic growth and job creation.”
