Profile Information

What impact would you like to have on the world?
When I was 5 years old there were commercials on TV with people wearing Gas Masks asking to protect our environment! I had to do my part so my little sister and I became "Cleanup Commanders" from the Commander Tom Show.

We posted flyers "Give a Hoot Don't Polute", as cars passed bye people would throw garbage and cigarette butts out their windows right in front of me and my sign! I would yell at them Can't You Read! This is Our World Too!
I picked up the garbage along my way doing my best to take care of our Earth.
40 Years later Look What We Have Done To Our Planet! It is sad to say that the efforts of those when I was 5 turned into an uphill battle.
We all need to Respect Our World! Take a look around you, Do you like what you see?
Do something about it! Every little bit helps! And Every Second Counts!
Look at your precious child,
WHAT WORLD WILL THEY HAVE

I have always felt that I came from another planet and complained that I wanted to go back to mine. This isn't the world I signed up for.
Someone once asked me What My Planet is Like.
This inspired me to write it down and to see if others felt the same,
"On my planet there is Peace and Love, Everything exists together in harmony. You can drink from all water sources, Animals are free to roam. Everything is equal, There is no greed. There is no War, Famine or Poverty.
People smile when they pass you bye, and are ready to lend a helping hand to a stranger in need. Children laugh and play without restriction."
My Turn:
What does your world look like?
Is this what you dreampt when you were a child? We can make this Our World. Learn from our mistakes, and make it Paradise for all living things.

We are all brothers and sisters, we have to come together and work as a TEAM
We can Fix Our World

It's time to act on Child Poverty

It's time to act on Child Poverty
It's time to act on Child Poverty Act now to give all of Canada’s children the right to a decent life

We’d like to tell you that November 24 is a day to feel good about being a Canadian. But right now, we can’t. Twenty years ago, on November 24, 1989, all of our elected representatives voted in the House of Commons to make child poverty history in Canada by the year 2000. It was to be our legacy for the generations of the new Millennium.

End Child Poverty in Canada!

Make Poverty History

...to finally end Child Poverty in Canada! We're already 9 years behind schedule. Why should 637,000 Canadian children have to wait a minute longer?
It's time to act on Child Poverty

On November 24, 1989 Canada's House of Commons passed a resolution to end child poverty in Canada by the year 2000. Yet almost 1 Canadian child out of every 10 still lives in poverty - in one of the richest countries in the world. Shockingly, these figures don't even include First Nations and… Continue

Have you heard the good news?

Don't let Apple hog the green!

Have you heard the good news?

When you told Apple that you wished its products came in green - they listened. Your voice turned Apple into a green IT industry leader - and we wanted to say thank you! Because not only has Apple dropped the worst toxic chemicals from its products - but the company itself is making some bold green moves!

At the beginning of October Apple stormed out of the US Chamber of Commerce - a lobby group that has been using its funds to oppo… Continue

Hi Linda! Thanks for the welcome. You actually know me - I worked for City of Hamilton last year in the recycling department and gave you guys some supplies and blue boxes. And even gave you a ride to work once! That was my co-op, now I am done college and graduated with honours. And looking for a full-time career. Perhaps I'll see you sometime this summer at a Fix Our World event!

-Phil.
