Get involved in your community
Is there something about your neighbourhood or city you wish you could change? Maybe you wish there were bike lanes on a busy road, or sidewalks where the neighbourhood kids walk to school. Maybe you don’t think your city is doing enough to combat climate change or that there isn’t enough diversity in city council. These are all things that can be changed if enough people speak up and voice their opinions to those in power. You can call or email your representative to let them know you’re concerned about the issue or attend city council meetings. You can also join your local community association to stay informed and figure out how to best serve your community.
