Our Vision: The Canada Action Network - Uniting for a Just, Equitable, and Sustainable Future
​
Started in February 2024, The Canada Action Network's vision is to unite a diverse community, committed to curbing corporate power, championing social justice, and forging a path to a sustainable future. Our vision for a better world, grounded in the principles of justice, equality, and compassion, is encapsulated by The Canada Action Network.
​
In our vision of a brighter future:
​
-
We strive for a society that respects the environment, treats workers with dignity, and upholds democracy, challenging corporations when they fall short.
-
We envision a world 100% powered by renewable energy, respecting ecological limits, and safeguarding a safe climate for future generations.
-
We are dedicated to guaranteeing human rights and dignity for all, with a particular focus on respecting, protecting, and fulfilling the rights of Indigenous peoples and marginalized populations.
-
Our vision includes a strong, fair economy that serves everyone and ensures equitable opportunities for a safe and healthy life.
-
We advocate for a democracy where freedom, fairness, and integrity are central, with transparent and responsive public institutions that empower people to shape their own destinies.
We are driven by the belief that democracy is both our goal and our means, engaging people to overcome corporate influence and partisan self-interest. By mobilizing our community through The Canada Action Network, we aim to create a just, sustainable, and equitable future for all, and by all.
Together, we challenge the status quo, hold powerful entities accountable, and work towards a world that embodies our shared values of justice, equity, and compassion."
