Andrew Scheer skips climate rallies for campaign stops in B.C. September 27, 2019,
OTTAWA–Andrew Scheer skipped nationwide climate action rallies Friday, choosing instead to announce that a Conservative government would prioritize infrastructure to reduce traffic commute times.
Scheer was the only leader of a major federal party who did not participate in one of the climate strike marches that drew hundreds of thousands of students to the streets across Canada.
Instead, the Conservative leader flew from Montreal — where the largest march was held — to British Columbia to make the infrastructure announcement.
