11 Justin Trudeau Tweets That Reveal How The PM Feels About Climate Change

The Canadian federal election draws closer every day, and one of the biggest issues that candidates are discussing is climate change and how they are going to address it if they are elected. Justin Trudeau's tweets have indicated that the current Liberal leader has a lot to say about climate change and how his party will address it if they are elected.
Among the tweets, there are also moments where Trudeau has talked about what his party has done already in order to mitigate climate change. These include speaking about the issue with leaders from other countries, meeting with other Canadian politicians about their local issues, and listening to protesters who want to be heard.
While there are plenty of topics, issues, and concerns being talked about in this election, it's possible that climate change may be the most important one, especially among young voters. According to research from the University of Montreal and the University of California Santa Barbara, 54 percent of Canadians support a carbon tax.
