Against that backdrop, only 63 per cent of Canadians understand that climate change is real and caused by humans — a drop from 71 per cent in 2021, according to a poll published by the Angus Reid Institute Friday.

There has been so much proof of massive efforts by oil companies to suppress the information about climate change, but conservatives have managed to spin it into braindead narratives that Big Solar is pushing "climate alarmism" to make us reliant on China. CO2 isn't a greenhouse gas anymore, it's actually plant food. And every disaster is actually just "weather," and has nothing to do with climate change. I hate this fucking world. Cant wait for the war to start so I can purge these conservatives from the world. Maybe we have a narrow window of opportunity to save our species.

The Angus Reid Institute conducted an online survey from Jan. 24-27, 2025 among a representative randomized sample of 2,012 Canadian adults who are members of Angus Reid Forum.

Hoping it's a polling error and the general populace hasn't slid backwards...

I thought the same!! I’m in environmental public health and seeing stats like this makes me pissed. How much progress we are losing to false information, lies and propaganda is absurd. I get that with a cost of living crisis it’s harder for some people to care when they can’t eat or pay their rent, but urgh

Education is a constant effort and we're fighting monied interests.
