Climate March Ottawa 2025

Sep 20, 2025
Draw the Line

Get ready to join us for an important day of action coming soon!

Many of you will recall the inspiring ‘Fridays For Future’ march that took place last September. This year, we’re gearing up for an even bigger event on September 20, 2025!

This march is a powerful collaboration involving CAN/RAC, 350 Canada, Fridays For Future Ottawa, Cafes Ottawa, Ecology Ottawa, Seniors For Climate Action Now, and Seniors For Climate. Together, we’ll be part of global actions, uniting voices and calling for the fast-tracking of climate action now!

On this day, our march in Ottawa will coincide with over 80 ‘Seniors For Climate’ events happening across Canada, and similar marches that will fill the streets throughout the United States under the banner of ‘Sun Day’.

Our Ottawa march will be under the banner, ”Draw The Line”. Our ‘line in the sand’ message will be to ask Prime Minister Carney to choose a path that includes the following demands:

• Yes to federal investment in affordable, climate-resilient housing for working class Canadians // No to housing as a profit machine for developers and speculators
• Yes to a national east-west clean energy grid that creates good jobs and secures Canada’s energy independence // No to pipelines that lock us into a dying industry responsible for the extreme weather events caused by climate change.
• Yes to taxing mega-corporations/billionaires and price-gouging companies to fund public climate & social solutions // No to gutting public services and letting the ultra-rich continue to increase their wealth while so many people struggle
• Yes to following Indigenous leadership on the path to a just, sustainable future // No to fast tracking projects that trample on Indigenous rights and consent, and repeat a colonial model of development in the name of economic progress.

As the date approaches, we’ll keep you updated with all the details.

So, mark your calendars and stay tuned for what promises to be an unforgettable day of solidarity and hope!

This is a big event, and we need your help. If you're willing and able, please email us at ottawa@seniorsforclimateactionnow.org . Thank you.
