The climate crisis is front and centre on the minds of Canadians. That is true whether you believe in it or not.
Unfortunately for Mr. Scheer most Canadians believe that we need to do something about it. Mr. Scheer proposed a plan. By most accounts it is not very good but it is a plan that he can point to. If he wants people to take it seriously he should be showing that he takes the climate crisis seriously. Marching today would have accomplished that even if he personally does not believe in it. Hell, he would not be the first politician to do or say something he does not personally believe.
Instead, while the eyes of the country were focused on the millions of Canadian marching to fight climate change he was putting pictures of himself eating pizza on Twitter. Talk about being politically tone deaf.
When the Conservatives lose the election I believe the postmortems of the election will point to this day as the beginning of the end of their hopes of gaining power.

A picture says a thousand words. Scheer's pizza > Trudeau's "makeup".
Stanfield's football raises a toast in tribute.
