Vire au vert is a citizen mobilization initiative to bring environmental issues to the forefront during Quebec and Canada's election campaigns. 

21 of Quebec’s most influential environmental and citizen groups are working together for the coming federal elections in Canada. We are asking that the federal parties commit to respecting Quebec’s environmental values. 

Our province has made ambitious choices for the environment. We have passed laws, adopted plans, held major societal debates, fought battles, built collective infrastructure and carried out major projects to put us on track to a viable future. This work has created a solid foundation on which we must continue to build and - above all - on which we will not go backwards.

That's why we're calling on the federal political parties to commit to the Quebec Consensus on the Environment in the lead up to the next election.
