Last week, over 300 events were organized in 34 countries for the Global Frackdown, an international day of action initiated by our U.S. allies at Food and Water Watch to ban fracking. Leading up to the Global Frackdown, the Council of Canadians released a poll that revealed that 70 per cent of Canadians want a national moratorium on fracking. The poll included a regional breakdown and found that even nearly half of Conservative voters, 87 per cent of NDP voters and 78 per cent of Liberal voters support a moratorium on fracking, The Green Party is currently the only federal party that supports a moratorium on fracking.
