On the same day climate strikes are being held across Canada, including on the grounds of Queen's Park on Friday, environment minister Jeff Yurek released a statement declaring "Ontario is leading the way when it comes to fighting climate change in Canada."

Yurek did not attend the rally. His statement comes amid criticism about the province's policies on climate change.

Jessica Green an associate professor of political science at the University of Toronto said the statement was simply "not true."
