SOCIO-POLITICAL ACTION
Mobilization for social and climate justice on September 23

Actions will be taking place throughout Québec on September 23 to demand the following:

  • a ban on fossil fuels by 2030, covering production, transformation, exports and imports
  • high taxes on wealth and massive reinvestment in our social safety net to provide decent living conditions for all

Although the APTS does not agree with the use of strike action as a tactic in this situation, we encourage our members to participate in the various actions as activists.

Full details on the MÉPACQ website (in French).
