Speakers’ Corner: Climate Crisis Edition

We are collaborating with Extinction Rebellion Toronto to create our own Speakers’ Corner at the next GLOBAL CLIMATE STRIKE. Pop into our video booth across the street from Queen’s Park and share your thoughts. The footage will be livestreamed for anyone who couldn’t come to the rally in person and recorded for future use.

Anyone is welcome to share their thoughts on the climate crisis, but youth voices will be prioritized!

ONE TOPIC WE’RE INTERESTED IN IS DIVESTMENT:
Did you know that the Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan owns an airport in Bristol which is being expanded against the wishes of local climate strikers(https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-bristol-47948702)? Did you know that 130 global banks recently signed a declaration on responsible fossil fuel investing — but major Canadian banks refused to sign (https://www.unepfi.org/news/industries/banking/130-banks-holding-usd-47-trillion-in-assets-commit-to-climate-action-and-sustainability/)? Did you know that the University of Toronto had a major divestment campaign shut down by the President against the wishes of staff and students in 2016 (https://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/u-of-t-rejects-recommendation-to-divest-from-fossil-fuels/article29426921/)?

WHAT IS SPEAKERS’ CORNER?
Speakers’ Corner is a television series that aired weekly on Citytv and A (formerly A-Channel) stations in Canada, later CTV Two) from 1990 to 2008, featuring numerous short segments on a variety of topics as recorded by members of the general public in the form of rants, big-ups, shoutouts, jokes, music performances, etc. After the video was complete, it was edited for television. The show was an example of Citytv founder Moses Znaimer’s philosophy of interactive broadcasting, and essentially created what some 21st-century media outlets would retroactively label as a precursor to YouTube.
