In plain language, the ruling confirms that under international law, by which Canada is bound, countries are required to take more than voluntary action to address climate change. Major historic polluters like Canada are not just morally bound to cut emissions, but legally required to — or risk charges to compensate communities most harmed.

I love to hear this, and I love what the kiddos in Ontario are doing. I hope more people take steps like that!

Smith and Moe are really going to hate hearing this.
